Locally Led Adaption To Climate Change: The Start of a 10-Year Learning Journey

Locally Led Adaption To Climate Change: The Start of a 10-Year Learning Journey Our vision for a journey to promote locally led adaptation.   In early 2021, a fast-growing group of experts will meet in Gobeshona to define a 10-year learning agenda to advance principles for critical locally led adaption to climate change. Saleemul Huq and Clare Shakya explain the importance of this group and the journey ahead. Collectively, the world has failed to respond to the triple crises of poverty, climate and nature at the scale and speed so desperately needed by the poorest communities. Going further and faster on climate action demands a whole-of-society response and requires more, and better quality, support.

Forty governments and leading institutions commit to support locally led climate adaptation

Forty governments, leading global institutions and local and international NGOs, including UN Development Programme, Climate Investment Funds, Zurich Investment Group, BRAC and Slum Dwellers International, have committed a new set of principles to ensure climate adaptation is led by local people. ‘ The Principles for Locally Led Adaptation ’ were recently launched at the Climate Adaptation Summit. The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), World Resources Institute (WRI), and International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) facilitated the Principles’ development with over 50 other organisations under the Global Commission for Adaptation, steered by commissioners Sheela Patel of Slum Dwellers International and BRAC executive director Dr Muhammad Musa.

COVID-19 and the climate crisis exposed the fragility of economies and societies, upending the lives of people worldwide and, in particular, harming vulnerable communities and countries already facing multiple challenges. This year will bring many of the same challenges as last year and will uncover new ones. Governments will need to distribute vaccines quickly and fairly, create jobs and reinvigorate economic growth while advancing a more inclusive, sustainable and resilient future. All countries will need to mobilize finance and rich countries will need to increase support to vulnerable countries to help the world adapt to the impacts of climate change.

Principles for locally led adaptation

Principles for locally led adaptation Eight principles for locally led adaptation have been developed to help ensure that local communities are empowered to lead sustainable and effective adaptation to climate change at the local level. IIED is among over 40 governments, leading global institutions and local and international NGOs that have already endorsed these principles and are advocating their endorsement by others.
