The document outlines a framework for aligning national policies to achieve climate-resilient development, emphasizing the role of National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) as a connecting mechanism. It identifies key enabling factors—institutional arrangements, information exchange, and capacity development—and provides a four-step process for defining alignment objectives. The briefing also offers a set of diagnostic questions to help countries identify viable entry points for policy integration, such as aligning NAPs with Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) or disaster risk reduction strategies.

  • Policy alignment can occur either within a single global agenda (e.g., aligning processes across different government levels) or across multiple agendas to ensure related policy processes support one another.
  • The National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process is a critical connection point for climate-resilient development because it explicitly aims to integrate climate change adaptation into development policies, plans, and initiatives across all sectors and levels.
  • Effective alignment requires three primary enabling factors: institutional arrangements to coordinate different ministries (such as environment, planning, and agriculture), robust information exchange across government levels and stakeholders, and capacity development in both analytical and technical areas.
  • A strong synergy exists between NAPs and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement; NDCs communicate adaptation goals, while NAPs serve as the operational means to plan, implement, and monitor those goals.
  • Alignment between NAPs and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) strategies is beneficial because both share the goal of reducing vulnerability and managing climate-related risks, utilizing similar conceptual understandings of risk and resilience.
