Climate Strategies submission to Subsidiary Body for Implementation on the Belem Work Programme
Summary
The document argues that climate adaptation indicators should be defined as values providing an overview of progress in reducing exposure and vulnerability to climate effects. It emphasizes that because adaptation is complex—influenced by temporal, spatial, economic, social, and cultural dimensions—metrics must reflect both the process and quality of adaptation efforts and the enhancement of adaptive capacity.
Key insights
- Adaptation indicators are defined, based on IPCC definitions, as a set of values that offer a collective overview of the progress made in reducing vulnerability and exposure to climate and its effects.
- Due to the complexity of climate adaptation, which is affected by social, cultural, economic, spatial, and temporal dimensions, metrics must be designed to measure the quality and process of adaptation efforts as well as the improvement of adaptive capacity.
