Adaptation Strategies

The NAP has 23 adaptation strategies, with 113 interventions under 8 sectors to reinforce implementation, all towards achieving its vision and 6 goals.

  • Goal 1
  • Goal 2
  • Goal 3
  • Goal 4
  • Goal 5
  • Goal 6

Goal-1: Ensure protection against climate change variability and induced natural disasters

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.1.1 Combat cyclonic storm surges, sealevel rise and salinity intrusion
  • S.1.2 Manage floods, erosion and drought risks
  • S.1.3: Protect life, livelihoods, infrastructures and ecosystems against slow-onset and other climate extremities

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: Increased adaptive capacity of human, natural and economic systems to reduce risks and vulnerabilities and ensure protection against climate change-induced disasters in coastal areas
  • Outcome-2: Increased adaptive capacity of human, natural and economic systems to reduce risks and vulnerabilities and ensure protection against climate change-induced disasters in the floodplain or drought areas
  • Outcome-3: Enhanced adaptive capacity and protection of life, livelihoods and ecosystems against slow-onset and other extreme events of climate change

Goal-2: Develop climateresilient agriculture for food, nutrition and livelihood security

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.2.1 Promote extension of climate-smart agriculture
  • S.2.2 Develop climate-resilient fisheries, aquaculture and livestock
  • S.2.3: Manage sustainable agro-inputs and transformative value chains
  • S.2.4: Strengthen extension services for agriculture, fisheries and livestock

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: Increased agricultural productivity and resilience, and reduced emissions from the adoption of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices
  • Outcome-2: Enhanced climate resilience in aquaculture, fisheries and livestock
  • Outcome-3: Abundance of quality inputs for agriculture, fisheries and livestock, and transformed value chains
  • Outcome-4: Improved extension services related to agriculture, fisheries and livestock

Goal-3: Develop climatesmart cities for an improved urban environment and wellbeing

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.3.1 Promote green and blue infrastructure for urban environmental management and conservation
  • S.3.2 Develop climate-smart cities to increase urban resilience
  • S.3.3: Develop climate-resilient health care and WASH facilities for improved human well-being and livability in cities

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: Improved urban environment and resilient urban infrastructure
  • Outcome-2: Enhanced urban resilience and improved standard of living
  • Outcome-3: Improved human health, livability and well-being

Goal-4: Promote nature-based solutions for the conservation of forestry, biodiversity and the well-being of communities

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.4.1 Scale up ecosystem-based adaptation for wetlands conservation
  • S.4.2 Restore and conserve habitat, ecosystems and biodiversity
  • S.4.3: Expand community-based afforestation and/or reforestation

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: Increased use of nature-based solutions and conservation of biodiversity ensured
  • Outcome-2: Increased practice of ecosystembased adaptation (EbA) for reducing climate change risks
  • Outcome-3: Critical and fragile ecosystems restored and conserved
  • Outcome-4: Expansion of forest coverage, mangroves and biodiversit
  • Outcome-5: Community and youth-led conservation of nature for improved well being

Goal-5: Impart good governance through the integration of adaptation into the planning process

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.5.1 Reform policies for mainstreaming adaptation
  • S.5.2 Develop a framework for adaptation monitoring, evaluation and learning
  • S.5.3: Engage the private sector in adaptation implementation
  • S.5.4: Empower local government institutes, community-based organizations, women, people with disabilities and youth for locally led adaptatio
  • S.5.5: Enhance climate financing for adaptation

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: New or updated policies, plans, regulations and institutions developed or reformed to support mainstreaming of the NAP into government risk-informed planning and implementation processes
  • Outcome-2: Effective and robust M&E for CCA developed to support the national monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) system
  • Outcome-3: Private sector-led CCA initiatives implemented
  • Outcome-4: Decentralized environmental and climate change management ensured
  • Outcome-5: Locally led, gender-, disability- and youth-inclusive adaptation initiatives increased
  • Outcome-6: Adaptation investment gap declines

Goal-6: Ensure transformative capacity-building and innovation for climate change adaptation

Adaptation Strategies:

  • S.6.1 Develop transformative capacities and management of knowledge
  • S.6.2 Introduce innovation in reducing climate change and disaster risks and consequent losses and damagess
  • S.6.3: Research and innovation for agriculture, fisheries and livestock slow-onset and other climate extremities
  • S.6.4: Advanced research on climate change impacts on ecosystems and application of ecosystem-based adaptation
  • S.6.5: Action research for innovation in climate-resilient infrastructure, improved health and WASH technologies

Outcomes:

  • Outcome-1: A paradigm shift in capacity development and behavioral change happens and persists over time
  • Outcome-2: Sustainable CCA knowledge management ensured
  • Outcome-3: Capacity development at the individual, institutional and process levels
  • Outcome-4: Development of innovative technologies and adaptation practices to support risk-informed planning and damage mitigation
  • Outcome-5: Development of tools and methodologies, and increased capacities of actors to improve research and extension services related to agriculture, fisheries and livestock
  • Outcome-6: Knowledge generated on ecosystem sensitivity to climate change and its impacts
  • Outcome-7: Scientific knowledge and guidelines for climate-resilient health, adaptive rural and urban WASH infrastructure, and urban development
