What We do
Three Pillars of Support
We generate and share knowledge to inform and strengthen NAP processes, support national-level action, and facilitate sustained South–South peer learning. Gender equality, social inclusion, training, and advocacy serve as crosscutting priorities throughout our work.
Knowledge
We draw on lessons and good practices to develop knowledge products to share experiences, showcase analysis, and highlight progress on NAP processes.
Technical Support
We offer demand-led technical support for the development and implementation of NAP processes.
Peer Learning
We convene adaptation policy-makers and practitioners for open, honest exchanges on what works and what doesn’t.
