The NDC Partnership mobilized over 20 institutions, including the University of Maryland as lead academic partner, to release a new report: Advancing Adaptation in NDCs 3.0. The report delivers 12 key recommendations for strengthening adaptation through NDCs. Released as countries develop NDCs 3.0 in 2025, the report offers practical guidance for countries to set and achieve ambitious adaptation targets, while building the human, technical and financial resources required to deliver them.
The 12 recommendations build upon the outcomes of the First Global Stocktake and the UAE Framework for Global Climate Resilience adopted at COP28. The report offers governments a roadmap to align national efforts with international frameworks, signaling their commitment to global climate resilience.
