Antecedentes
The National Adaptation Global Support Programme (NAP-GSP) is implemented by UNDP and UN Environment, financed by the Special Climate Change Fund (SCCF) and the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF). The NAP-GSP provides a global support mechanism to enable developing countries, including Least Developed Countries (LDCs) to identify, finance, and implement appropriate medium- to long-term adaptation actions at national, sub-national and local levels. The NAP-GSP is a collaborative effort, with more than ten international organizations involved. The programme supports countries in the following areas: institutional support, technical support, and knowledge brokering. The “NAP Toolkit” consists of three NAP training modules: 1) Climate change adaptation Finance; 2) Appraisal of Adaptation Options and Prioritization; and 3) Mainstreaming climate change adaptation in water resources.
