The level of advancement of monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) systems differs greatly across developing countries. Climate adaptation is inherently difficult to measure and depends on the selection of indicators that build on national information sources, ideally with cross-country comparisons. For developing countries, data-intensive adaptation MEL processes and monitoring efforts can add additional burden to already constrained adaptive capacities.
This webinar discussed the national and sectoral experiences on building monitoring, evaluation and learning systems, as well as global dimensions of gauging adaptation progress. With several countries advancing on their National Adaptation Plans, emerging insights were shared at the national level. Sectoral experiences and tools applied in agriculture were also presented.
