Rwanda’s Climate Adaptation MEL System in the Human Settlements and Transport Sectors: Technical report assessing adaptation outcomes

The Ministry of Environment in Rwanda has established a climate adaptation monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) system to track resilience in the human settlement and transport sectors. While Rwanda's updated adaptation NDC identifies seven key indicators for these sectors, this specific assessment focuses on three primary indicators: the percentage of the rural population in clustered settlements, access to water and sanitation services, and the reduction in the length of roads vulnerable to landslides and floods. The assessment utilized a combination of literature reviews, interviews, and field visits to gather empirical and qualitative data on adaptation benefits and challenges.

• Rwanda's updated adaptation NDC specifies seven key indicators for the human settlement and transport sectors, but the current assessment focuses on three primary indicators: the percentage of rural population in clustered settlements, access to water and sanitation services, and the reduction in the length of roads vulnerable to floods and landslides.
• The assessment of adaptation outcomes was conducted using a multi-method approach that included field visits with stakeholders and residents, interviews, and a review of existing literature to obtain qualitative data on challenges and benefits.
