Métodos para la presentación de informes sobre los avances del Plan Nacional de Adaptación

The document outlines a framework for reporting on National Adaptation Plan (NAP) progress, categorising methods into three primary objectives: monitoring activity status, evaluating performance and impact, and learning and communication. It provides a menu of 17 specific tools—ranging from low-effort checklists and traffic-light systems to high-effort indicator tracking and digital platforms—supported by real-world examples from countries such as Saint Lucia, Burkina Faso, and Finland. The guide emphasizes an iterative 'learning by doing' approach, the integration of gender equality and social inclusion (GESI), and the alignment of national reporting with international commitments under the Paris Agreement and the Sendai Framework.

• Progress reports for NAPs serve as a synthesis of monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) exercises to provide evidence on whether adaptation efforts are functioning and who is benefiting.
• As of July 2025, 84% of countries have committed to reporting on the progress of their NAPs.
• NAP progress reporting can be aligned with international obligations, including the Paris Agreement's Article 7 (monitoring and evaluating adaptation) and Article 13 (biennial transparency reports), as well as the Sendai Framework and the 2030 Agenda/SDGs.
• The first objective of progress reporting is to monitor the status of activities, products, and results using methods such as checklists, traffic-light systems, completion criteria, and budget tracking.
• The second objective is to evaluate performance, results, and impacts, employing methods like feasibility assessments, criteria-based evaluations, and enabling environment analysis to determine if measures increase resilience.
• The third objective focuses on learning and communicating progress through narrative reports, case studies, awareness surveys, reflection forums, and digital platforms.
• Effective reporting should integrate Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) both in stakeholder engagement and in the reported data.
• The guide recommends a five-step process for progress reporting: defining objectives, assessing resources/capacities, selecting methods, collecting/analyzing data, and communicating results.
