2. Alignment for ambitious adaptation action

The main objective of this breakout session is to enhance understanding of how governments, UN agencies, donors and civil society can overcome the financial, governance and inclusion-related barriers to increased ambition in the implementation of NDC adaptation priorities by leveraging the adaptation planning (NAP) work and vice versa. A secondary objective of the session is to provide a forum for a diverse range of stakeholders to discuss and showcase innovative approaches to scaling up adaptation ambition.

The breakout session will mix an introduction and framing presentations, an energizer, and a world café-style interactive session that will ensure that each participant engages with a diverse range of perspectives on the challenges, needs and opportunities relating to increasing adaptation ambition.
