National Adaptation Programmes of Action (NAPAs)

National Adaptation Programmes of Action (NAPAs) are strategic plans developed by countries, especially those vulnerable to climate change, to address immediate adaptation needs. Created under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), NAPAs identify priority projects and actions to help communities adapt to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels, extreme weather, and agricultural changes. By focusing on urgent needs and available resources, NAPAs aim to enhance resilience, protect livelihoods, and ensure sustainable development in the face of climate challenges.
