China and south-south scoping assessment for adaptation, learning and development

The report assesses avenues for South-South cooperation on climate adaptation, emphasizing the sharing of experiences between China and other developing nations to avoid maladaptation. It concludes that while participant countries can benefit from collaboration with China on climate compatible development, success requires demand-driven work and funding targeted at long-term sustainability to address existing gaps.

• The report suggests that South-South cooperation can help developing countries improve their climate adaptation and avoid the risk of maladaptation by sharing experiences of integrating adaptation into development.
• While participant countries can benefit from collaboration with China on climate compatible development and adaptation, the report identifies significant gaps and areas requiring strengthening and project implementation.
• The study's primary recommendations are that adaptation efforts must be demand-driven and that funding should be focused on long-term sustainability.
