Toolkit for Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning for National Adaptation Plan Processes

The toolkit offers a framework for building MEL systems to ensure the effectiveness of National Adaptation Plan processes, avoid unintended negative effects, and support reporting requirements under the Paris Agreement.

• MEL systems are essential for countries to determine the effectiveness of NAP processes, understand who benefits from them, and refine strategies based on evidence to prevent negative unintended consequences.
• The toolkit includes more than 30 practical country examples and key resources to assist adaptation teams in establishing MEL systems.
• Robust MEL systems support international reporting obligations under the Paris Agreement, specifically regarding Biennial Transparency Reports and the assessment of collective progress on the global goal on adaptation via the UAE Framework for Global Climate Resilience.
• Implementing a strong MEL system is described as a critical foundation for creating equitable outcomes and processes within National Adaptation Plans.
