sNAPshot | Strategic Communications for National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Processes

The document argues that strategic communications—tailoring messages for priority audiences and using appropriate channels—are essential for government engagement with stakeholders during the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. This approach ensures citizen views are reflected in prioritized adaptation actions and encourages stakeholder involvement in implementation and monitoring and evaluation (M&E).

• Effective National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes require clear and purposeful communication with stakeholders both inside and outside of government.
• A strategic communications approach, involving tailored messages and appropriate delivery channels, can enhance government engagement with citizens, ensuring their perspectives inform prioritized adaptation actions and their involvement in implementation and monitoring and evaluation (M&E).
