National Adaptation Programs of Action (NAPAs)

National Adaptation Programs of Action (NAPAs) are plans developed by least developed countries to address climate change impacts that threaten their communities and environments. They identify urgent, cost-effective strategies to adapt to climate-related risks such as droughts, floods, and other extreme weather events. NAPAs help these countries prioritize actions needed to protect vulnerable populations and natural resources, often seeking international support and funding. Essentially, they serve as targeted roadmaps for each country to build resilience against climate change's local effects.
