Alliance for Global Water Adaptation (AGWA)
Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ)
Through a crowdsourcing effort including national, sectoral, and civil society partners from more than 100 countries, AGWA has created a new guidance and planning document for integrating water into our climate responses. Watering the NDCs provides guiding principles and recommendations for national climate planners and decision-makers to help ensure they meet their goals set out in National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). The report is designed to help Parties consider the reality of their water management across sectors, while working towards robust and flexible solutions able to withstand the effects of climate change.
