National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA)

Back to top

The NAPA process identifies priorities for climate change in Nepal.It creates and enhances awareness of climate change adaptation issues at different scales and build long-term capacity through cross-sectoral and multi-stakeholder coordination. The Project will also form the basis of a critical pathway for climate change action in Nepal, opening avenues for mainstreaming climate change adaptation into development planning. The NAPA in Nepal has three components: 1) preparation and dissemination of a NAPA document; 2) development and maintenance of a Climate Change Knowledge Management and Learning Platform for Nepal; and 3) development of a multi-stakeholder Framework of Action for Climate Change in Nepal.
