Key messages from this brief include:
- Key sectors remain vulnerable to climate change impacts due to inadequate adaptation responses.
- Barriers to effective sectoral climate change adaptation readiness include inadequate vulnerability assessments, inadequate sector-specific adaptation policies, insufficient sector funding, inefficient data and information management and limited cross-sectoral coordination.
- National climate change adaptation planning and investment efforts need to more effectively engage civil society.
- Key strategies to enhance climate change adaptation readiness require improved sectoral adaptation policy and planning, cross-sectoral coordination and civil society engagement and building on lessons learned.
