Good practices and lessons learned:
• Vulnerability assessments should be directed by national priorities, informed through public consultations. • A public inventory to monitor the implementation of adaptation options should be created and maintained. • Coordination bodies for climate change adaptation should be formalised/institutionalised. • Information collection and management systems need to be consolidated and maintained. • Mechanisms for greater public participation in the development of priorities and monitoring of policy implementation should be established. • Innovate financing mechanisms should be developed. • Knowledge on climate change adaptation processes is not adequately shared among public sector agency personnel. • Mandates and responsibilities for climate change adaptation procedures among ministries and agencies may be in a state of flux or unclear, even to those within the agencies. • Significant knowledge gaps persist at the civil society level regarding national climate change adaptation priorities and activities.
