A national adaptation plan (NAP) process is a strategic process that enables countries to identify and address medium- and long-term priorities for adapting to climate change. The NAP process is led by national governments and involves analyzing climate change and assessing vulnerability to its impacts. This helps countries identify and prioritize adaptation options, implement these options, and track progress. According to NAP Global Networks: “Overall progress in NAPs has been steady, although slower than desired – particularly among LDCs. The UNFCCC reported in December 2019 that 120 developing countries have at least initiated NAP processes and are advancing them in different ways. Whether it is undertaking vulnerability assessments, establishing the institutional structures for adaptation decision making, identifying and prioritizing options, or securing resources to implement these options – countries are moving forward.”
