Seven Guiding Principles for Preparing Financing Strategies for Climate Change Adaptation in Developing Countries

The fact sheet outlines seven guiding principles to help developing countries secure adaptation finance. It emphasizes that strategies should identify strategic uses of finance, align with national development priorities, improve the enabling environment, and establish implementation and measurement processes. Furthermore, the preparation process must be country-driven, inclusive, and involve ministries of finance and planning.

• Financing strategies for adaptation should focus on four core elements: identifying strategic uses of various finance sources, ensuring alignment with national development priorities and other financing strategies, improving the enabling environment to scale up finance, and establishing processes for implementation and success measurement.
• The process of preparing and implementing adaptation financing strategies should be country-driven, fit for purpose, inclusive, and specifically engage ministries of planning and finance.
