Developing national adaptation monitoring and evaluation systems: A guidebook

The guidebook outlines a non-standardized approach to national adaptation monitoring and evaluation (M&E), emphasizing that systems must be tailored to a country's specific context. It structures the development process into four building blocks: understanding the context, identifying monitoring content, designing operational processes, and determining how to present results to meet the system's purpose.

• There is no universal model for national adaptation M&E because decision makers select different approaches based on their specific national contexts.
• The process for establishing a national adaptation M&E system is organized into four interrelated building blocks: context understanding, content identification, operational design, and the presentation of results.
