Next Steps for Defining a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning System for the Global Goal on Adaptation by COP 28

30 May 2023

In 2015, the Paris Agreement marked a global change in the commitment of countries to address adaptation, capturing the need to increase its visibility and support for it. As part of the efforts to bring adaptation "on parity" with mitigation, parties established the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) to serve as an overarching aspiration to raise ambitions and accelerate collective actions on adaptations. In order words, the GGA implicitly involves the conceptual and methodological framework through which countries and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will conduct the monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) of adaptation under the Paris Agreement.
