Advancing Climate Change Adaptation in Developing Countries: An Overview of the UNDP-GEF Adaptation Portfolio

This activity report describes the UNDP-GEF adaptation portfolio. Leveraging the strength of the UN family, UNDP is working with international and national development partners to help countries better manage the inherent uncertainties of climate change. Enabling activities include: developing technical capacities at the national and sectoral level to identify climate change risks and prepare long-term strategies for risk management; internalizing climate change risks into planning and decision-making processes of key economic sectors; testing approaches and technologies for climate risk management in key sectors at the sub-national and local levels.
