NATIONAL ADAPTATION PLAN (NAP) APPROACH: Reducing and managing climate risk in Brazil through sectoral strategies for all climate-sensitive sectors
Summary
Brazil developed its National Adaptation Plan (NAP) between 2013 and 2016, involving over 40 institutions across government, academia, the private sector, and NGOs. The process followed a timeline starting with the 2009 National Climate Change Policy and culminating in the plan's launch in May 2016 and a subsequent monitoring and evaluation report in June 2017. Future implementation focuses on refining monitoring systems, securing funding, and integrating gender issues and mitigation co-benefits during the 2020 review.
Key insights
- The elaboration of the Brazilian National Adaptation Plan occurred between 2013 and 2016, involving more than 40 institutions from the federal and local governments, NGOs, the private sector, and academia.
- The NAP process followed a series of milestones: the establishment of the National Climate Change Policy in 2009, the creation of an adaptation committee in 2012, the launch of the NAP in May 2016, and the production of the first monitoring and evaluation report in June 2017.
- Future priorities for the NAP include improving the M&E indicator system, finding new funding sources, and incorporating gender issues, chains of impacts, and mitigation co-benefits into the 2020 review.
