International Guidelines on Natural and Nature-Based Features for Flood Risk Management

The International Guidelines are a set of real-world guidelines resulting from a ten years of work of building, learning, and documenting the best practices for constructing Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF).
The NNBF Guidelines is intended to inform the efforts of practitioners, organizations, and communities seeking to increase the performance of Floods Risk Management (FRM) systems and achieve long‑term risk mitigation, increase water infrastructure resilience and sustainability, reduce infrastructure maintenance and repair costs, and, ultimately, increase the value produced by FRM infrastructure investments

Do governments track the implementation of national climate change adaptation plans? An evidence-based global stocktake of monitoring and evaluation systems
-
Highlights
• More than 60% of countries that adopted a national adaptation plan (NAP) are not tracking its implementation.
• 23 countries have published a NAP implementation report and 15 have undertaken a NAP evaluation, almost twice as many as 2017.
• Almost 40% of countries reporting on NAP implementation are developing countries but only three are Least Developed Countries.
• The number of countries engaged in developing or using mechanisms to track NAP implementation has increased by 40% since 2017.
• NAP M&E systems support reporting on adaptation progress under the Global Stocktake of the Paris Agreement.
