Loss and damage has become a most prominent issue in intergovernmental climate change negotiations, against a background of national governments facing increased difficulties to manage the impacts of climate change that occur despite or in the absence of adaptation action.

"Assessing Climate Change Driven Losses and Damages" provides guidance on how to do so.
