Supplementary materials to the NAP technical guidelines

The supplementary materials are intended to offer in-depth coverage of selected steps of the process to formulate and implement national adaptation plans (NAPs).

The LEG takes note of ongoing efforts by different organizations in developing materials to supplement the technical guidelines for the NAP process. Some of the organizations have published their supplementary materials, while some have communicated their draft supplementary materials to the LEG for comments. Below is list of supplementary materials as at November 2016.
