BENIN

Since 2013, Benin has implemented a nationally led NAP process to integrate climate change adaptation into national, local, and sectoral development planning. Key milestones include the 2013 launch workshop, capacity building in 2017, and the 2019 commencement of the NAP document elaboration. The process identifies priority adaptation sectors including agriculture, health, energy, and coastlines, addressing impacts such as floods, droughts, and sea level rise.

• Benin's NAP process, which began in 2013, utilizes a nationally led approach to integrate climate change adaptation into development planning across national, local, and sectoral levels, including the National Development Plan, SDG targets, and Communal Development Plans.
• The NAP process has reached several milestones between 2013 and 2019, including a launch workshop (2013), capacity building for actors (2017), the integration of adaptation into the National Health Development Plan and National Development Plan (2018), and the start of the NAP document elaboration (2019).
• Benin identifies specific climate impacts—including floods, droughts, sea level rise, excessive heat, strong winds, and late and heavy rains—that affect priority adaptation sectors such as agriculture, health, freshwater resources, ecosystems, energy, coastlines, infrastructure, and tourism.
