The NAP Global Network Progress Report 2018-2019 outlines the Network's support for developing countries in national adaptation planning. It notes that 120 developing countries have launched NAP processes and highlights 2019 as a year of significant political momentum for adaptation, driven by the Global Commission on Adaptation, the UN Secretary General, and the IPCC.

• Between December 2018 and November 2019, the NAP Global Network supported developing countries in advancing national adaptation planning and action to ensure adaptation succeeds at scale and over the long term.
• According to UN reports, 120 developing countries have launched National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes.
• The year 2019 saw increased political support for adaptation, characterized by the Global Commission on Adaptation's flagship report initiating a "Year of Action," the UN Secretary General prioritizing resilience and adaptation for the 2019 Climate Summit, and IPCC special reports on the Ocean and Cryosphere and Climate Change and Land emphasizing the necessity and potential of adaptation.
