Facilitating Peer Learning with Adaptation Policy-Makers

The document introduces a guide for facilitating peer learning among adaptation policy-makers, based on Targeted Topic Forums (TTFs) piloted by the NAP Global Network. These forums, which involved government representatives from 23 countries, focused on themes such as financing, gender, and sectoral integration to move away from presentation-heavy meetings toward participatory planning.

• The guide is derived from Targeted Topic Forums (TTFs) piloted by the NAP Global Network, which were multi-day events focusing on themes including gender, financing, and sectoral integration within the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process.
• TTFs involving government representatives from 23 countries were effective in sharing technical knowledge, enabling peer-to-peer exchange, and encouraging progress in National Adaptation Plan processes globally.
• The guide aims to replace traditional presentation-heavy meetings with inclusive, participatory methods that allow stakeholders to collectively identify actions for adaptation.
