3. Sample process to formulate and implement a National Adaptation Plan

5. Designing a full process: Building blocks and workstreams
Each table to choose a case study country and identify where they are at in terms of the process to formulate and implement NAPs:
Beginner – initiated the process through launching etc.
Intermediate – draft NAP
Advance – submitted NAP, implementation in progress
Using the sample process to formulate and implement NAPs handout, design a custom process based on what exists already and create workstreams to carry out the new/remaining activities in the near future (say the next 3-5 years)
Display your custom process using cards on a board

As stated earlier GCF has made an initial sum of up to USD 80 million available to support readiness activities in countries.
Each area has a funding cap as outlined. There are no restrictions on the number of proposals that can be submitted, just caps on total or total access in one year.
Of the USD 1 million annual country cap, there is a USD 300,000 limit to help establish or strengthen a NDA or focal point to deliver on the Fund’s requirements, and within that amount a maximum of USD 100,000 can be used for NDA-led stakeholder meetings.

Indicative
adaptation planning outcome areas
1. Adaptation governance and coordination established
2. Impact and investment information, and capacity to analyse it
3. Knowledge, information & communication
4. Policy & strategy development/integration
5. Financing action plan
6. Monitoring & learning

11. Indicative adaptation planning outcomes
(Annex iv in Readiness Guidance)

12. Examples of activities supported
Outcome: Governance and Coordination
Effective support for strengthening existing CC coordination mechanism
Coordinated strategy and action plan developed to support the planning process
Monitoring framework across sectors to be put in place

13. Examples of outcomes supported
Outcome 1: Knowledge, information and communication
Risk assessments and economic impact studies in climate sensitive sectors conducted and incorporated in official data systems
Effective knowledge sharing platform as a resource for climate relevant planning established
Climate Change induced, natural disasters related database developed

14. Examples of outcomes supported (Liberia and Nepal)
Outcome: Financing action plan
Sector and area based costed investment plans prepared for scaling up adaptation in agriculture and coastal areas that take into account climate change risks and opportunities
Policy options for scaling up financing for adaptation investments identified and recommended
Foster Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) to support adaptation investments.

15. Additional information requested
(Section 3 in Readiness Guidance)
How the proposed adaptation planning activities will:
Address vulnerability and anticipated impacts of climate change, over time
Complement and integrate with other adaptation planning activities:
NAPAs, NAPs and/or other national  adaptation plans
relevant sub-national adaptation plans
relevant sector-specific adaptation plans 
Enable inclusive gender responsive stakeholder engagement mechanisms and inter-institutional arrangements
Contribute to:
reduce vulnerability to impacts of climate change
integration of climate change adaptation, in a coherent manner, into relevant new and existing policies, programmes and activities
