South–South Peer Exchange Awards Frequently Asked Questions

The NAP Global Network's South–South Peer Exchange Awards support the exchange of technical expertise on national adaptation planning (NAP) between developing countries. The program provides funding for flights, accommodation, and logistics for experts to either host or attend peer exchanges lasting between one and five days. Eligibility is limited to registered NAP Global Network participants from developing countries who work for their government or a key national organization. Past exchanges have focused on topics such as integrating coastal issues into planning, climate change adaptation in national budgets, and developing communications strategies for the NAP process.

• The South–South Peer Exchange Awards are designed to encourage the sharing of technical knowledge essential for the implementation and planning of national adaptation (NAP) between peers in developing countries.
• Award recipients receive comprehensive financial and logistical support, including coverage for flights, meals, accommodation, and visa costs, as well as travel booking and coordination of technical inputs like presentations.
• To participate in a peer exchange, individuals must be registered members of the NAP Global Network, originate from a developing country, and be employed by a key organization or the government of that country, with the awareness of their country's NAP focal point.
• Peer exchanges are flexible in format and duration, potentially occurring as standalone meetings or during official NAP-related events, and lasting from one to five days.
• The NAP Global Network is funded by Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and the United States Department of State, with its Secretariat hosted by the International Institute for Sustainable Development.
