Dear Climate-L readers,
We are pleased to inform you that there are
two new tools linked to Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and adaptation action online
on the website
www.adaptationcommunity.net:
|
Adaptation to climate change is much about ‘doing things differently
because of climate change’ (Bo Lim), or making the right decision in
light of climate change.

the
NDC Adaptation Toolbox
The
Tool for Assessing Adaptation in the NDCs (TAAN) is an
interactive knowledge platform that aims to provide an overview
of and detailed information on adaptation in the (Intended) Nationally
Determined Contributions ((I)NDCs). In particular, it demonstrates
objectives, priorities and vulnerabilities as well
as country adaptation actions and measures as indicated in the (I)NDCs.
The current version of the online tool comprises two main sections:
-
A
Quick Facts section which provides answers to relevant questions
about the (I)NDC adaptation components enabling users to access key
statistics around (I)NDC adaptation components. The section includes
general infographics that summarise the most important
data from (I)NDC adaptation components and a subsection devoted to
aggregated sector-specific information.
-
A
Country Information section with an interactive World Map which
allows to access country-specific information. In this section, users
may explore the content of and the differences between various (I)NDC
adaptation components and compare measures that
are planned and have been undertaken by different countries. Moreover,
users may access individualized country factsheets.
In early 2018, the tool will be expanded with an
Infographics section which allows users to individually create
graphs based on a variety of filter options. This section will thus
enhance the website’s function as an
open data platform valuable for a very wide range of potential users.
The
NDC Adaptation Toolbox
offers you various instruments to facilitate the development and implementation of
adaptation measures for achieving NDC adaptation goals. Most instruments were originally developed in the context of the
National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. As such, the NDC
Adaptation Toolbox is organized along a policy cycle of various stages.
The stages comply on the one hand with the different NAP elements as
outlined by the NAP Technical Guidelines, developed
by the Least Developed Countries Experts Group, and, on the other hand,
with the NDC implementation guideline developed by UNDP and WRI.
The stages are:
-
Stocktaking and Information Gathering
-
Planning
-
Developing Implementation Strategies
-
Implementing Adaptation Activities Examples
-
Monitoring & Evaluation
Along
with the various stages, the Toolbox comprises two cross-cutting
enabling factors, which are essential for the implementation of NDC
adaptation goals, namely
“Governance and Institutions” and “Capacity Building”. In addition,
“NAP Process Country Case Studies” illustrate the complete process.
All instruments were proven successful in mainstreaming and implementing adaptation actions in various countries by GIZ.
Yours sincerely,
