Gender-Responsive National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Processes: Maximizing the impact of targeted gender analyses 

The National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process offers a crucial opportunity to achieve effective and sustainable climate change adaptation, ensuring equitable benefits for people of all genders and especially for the most vulnerable populations. In light of this, the NAP Global Network worked with nine countries between 2017 and 2022, conducting targeted gender analyses to inform their NAP processes.

This webinar will give the floor to representatives of three countries who will share their reflections on the gender analysis they conducted and the resulting changes they have seen in their NAP processes. In sharing these reflections and examples, we aim to demonstrate the value of targeted gender analysis in promoting adaptation action that is gender responsive while also providing advice to undertaking gender analyses for their adaptation planning processes. 

During this 1-hour event, the NAP Global Network will also launch a new briefing note that reflects on the impact of these nine targeted gender analyses. The brief highlights lessons learned from this experience and identifies key enablers that will maximize the impacts of the analyses on countries’ NAP processes.
