Context

Water-related adaptation planning and project preparation across countries in Asia: Korea Global Adaptation Week & the NAP Water Supplement

This webinar is a follow-up to the 2018  Technical  Workshop  on Project Preparation for Transformational Climate Resilient Water Project Concepts in  Asia, held in Manila.

At the workshop, participants set in motion a partnership for climate resilient water project development in Asia, as a platform for countries to exchange knowledge and lessons as their experience in preparing, financing, and implementing water projects grows, particularly in the context of the GCF.  This webinar is an activity for this living ‘community of practice’.

  • Introduce the Water Supplement to the UNFCCC’s NAP Technical Guidelines, unveiled by GWP and the UNFCCC LEG at Adaptation Week, discuss how it can be useful for countries for water-related adaptation planning and project preparation
  • Reflect on whether this ‘sharing/learning’ experience is useful in the Pan-Asian context
