The project is one of two components of the ACA-MED programme, which aims to promote the green transition and increase environmental and climate resilience of economies and communities in the region, leading to improved quality of life for men and women.
The project provides assistance to Southern Neighbourhood governments, at central level, promoting climate integration and planning across Ministries, and preparing the grounds for large scale investments, using a tested methodology (the AdaptAction methodology).
The project works in close coordination with the Local Climate Adaptive Facility – Advancing Climate Adaptation in the Southern Mediterranean (LoCAL ACA-MED) project.
To enhance knowledge, climate governance, policies and action plans at national/central level for successful implementation of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) and to facilitate countries’ access to climate finance for adaptation.
