Climate Change Adaptation
What is climate change adaptation?
Adjustment in natural or human systems to a new or changing environment that exploits beneficial opportunities or moderates negative effects

Conclusions• First compendium of adaptation actions financed through three
Global Environment Facility funds.
• 10 types of 158 adaptation activities were identified through an analysis of 92 projects in 70 countries.
• Results show that early ideas of climate adaptation theoreticians are consistent with results from the field.
• This typology serves to provide insight into what exactly adaptation is in practical terms.
• The typology is a beginning for furthering harmonization between theory and practice.
