Synergies between adaptation, biodiversity, and mitigation: How Ecosystem-based Adaptation can build bridges between Nationally Determined Contributions and the new Global Biodiversity Framework

alt=""

At the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity held in December 2022, the new Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) has been adopted. Based on these developments, the publication on synergies between adaptation, biodiversity and mitigation takes this new international reality into account. After some general considerations on the role of EbA in building bridges, the authors of the study apply this perspective to three cases (Pakistan, Jordan and Costa Rica), exploring synergies of ecosystem-based approaches in the water, agriculture and urban sectors.

Peer Learning for Climate Action – Why it works and how funders can support it

This brief showcases peer learning as an effective approach to developing capacity for responding to the challenges of climate change. It is aimed at practitioners in funding and implementing agencies, particularly those working in policy processes at national levels, but it is relevant for all those interested in strengthening capacity for climate action.

Addressing Climate Change Through Integrated Responses: Linking adaptation and mitigation

Sustainable development, climate change adaptation, and mitigation are inextricably interconnected, with potential for conflicts and trade-offs, as well as synergies and co-benefits. This policy brief aims to build on a series of recent peer learning events focused on addressing climate change through integrated responses by linking adaptation and mitigation at the planning and implementation stages.

Gender and Climate Change Adaptation in the NDCs – Policy Paper

The policy paper offers an analysis of the gender data held in the Tool for Assessing Adaptation in the Nationally Determined Contributions (TAAN), calling attention to gender-sensitive planning processes, gender-disaggregated impacts as well as gender-responsive budgeting approaches.

Green Recovery for Practitioners Fiscal Policies – for a Sustainable, Inclusive and Resilient Transformation

This report explores challenges and action areas for advancing green fiscal policies – in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. It assesses the fiscal response to the pandemic and looks at examples and practical steps for (1) reforming fiscal rules (2) establishing green public financial management, (3) introducing carbon pricing, and (4) developing capacities and networks to integrate recovery efforts across fiscal and environmental spheres. 

Opportunities for Strengthening Resilience by Integrating Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance (CDRFI) in National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Processes

The result of a collaboration between InsuResilience and the NAP GN, a new report examines entry points for CDRFI to enhance national resilience-building efforts through NAPs. It presents an analysis of ways in which existing National Adaptation Plans and those under way have already integrated CDRFI, and suggests ways for both NAP and CDRFI actors to increasingly consider interlinkages in the future.

Oportunidades para reforzar la resiliencia mediante la integración de financiación y seguros contra riesgos climáticos y desastres naturales (CDRFI por sus siglas en inglés) en los procesos del Plan Nacional de Adaptación (PNAD)

El análisis que se presenta en este informe permite comprender mejor las formas en que los países están integrando las soluciones CDRFI en sus esfuerzos por formular y aplicar los Planes Nacionales de Adaptación (PNAD), así como las oportunidades perdidas. El análisis es resultado de la colaboración entre la Red Global de PNAD y la Asociación Global InsuResilience (IGP).

Possibilités de renforcer la résilience en intégrant le financement et l’assurance des risques climatiques et de catastrophes (CDRFI) dans les Plans nationaux d’adaptation (PNA)

L’analyse fournie dans le présent rapport permet de mieux comprendre comment les pays intègrent le CDRFI dans leurs efforts visant à formuler et à mettre en œuvre leur planification de l’adaptation PNA et de déceler les occasions manquées. Cette analyse est le fruit d’une collaboration entre le Réseau mondial de PNA et le Partenariat mondial InsuResilience (IGP).
