Recap of the framework and tools 2

Finding the entry points and making the case Mainstreaming CC into policy and planning processes Meeting the implementation challenge Preliminary assessments Understanding the science Understanding CC– development linkages Understanding climate- related uncertainties Raising awareness and building partnerships National consensus and commitment to climate- resilient, low-emission development Strengthening institutions and capacities Needs assessment Working mechanisms Collecting country-specific evidence and influencing policy processes Mainstreaming CC in (sub)national and sector policies, strategies, programmes Costing, assessing and selecting adaptation and mitigation options and measures Strengthening institutions and capacities Learning by doing Budgeting and financing Mainstreaming CC in the budgetary process Mainstreaming CC in monitoring systems Performance assessment frameworks Supporting policy measures National, sector and sub- national levels Strengthening institutions and capacities Mainstreaming as standard practice Engaging stakeholders and coordinating within the development community Mod1 Mod1 0 Mod4 Mod8 Mod3 Mod5 Mod6 Mod7 Adapted from: UNDP-UNEP (2009) Figure 3.1, p. 15 Mod2 3 Mod8 Mod9
