1. Module V.1M&E of adaptation to climate change in the NAP processTrainer: [Name]

2. Overview of this module • Rationale of M&E in the context of the NAP process • Practical approaches for M&E • Lessons learnt: use M&E for learning and steering the NAP process from the beginning on

3. What can you expect to learn from this session? Understand importance and challenges of M&E in the NAP process Learn about different approaches and examples for M&E Understand how to develop ‘good’ metrics / indicators and how to operationalize M&E

4. Content Rationale for adaptation M&E Purposes of M&E How to develop an M&E system What to measure / indicator development Successful operation

5. Rationale foradaptationM&E • Understandwhatworkswell (andwhatdoesn‘t) • Support managementunderuncertainty • Accountabilityforclimatefinance • Complywith national and international reporting Learning STEERING REPORTING ACCOUNTABILITY

6. Challenges of adaptation M&E Context-dependent No universal indicator 2020 - - - - -2050 No one metric What to monitor? Which indicators to use?

7. Whatisthepurposeofthe M&E system? Broadspectrumofpurposes, e.g.: Monitor results-oriented implementation of adaptation actions and plans, e.g. for a country with a comprehensive planning framework Example: Philippines, United Kingdom Monitor the NAP process itself, how it is progressing (but not the actual adaptation results) Example: PEG tool by the LDC group Two key take-aways: 1. No one-size-fits-all solution for all purposes/contexts 2. An adaptation M&E system does not necessarily need to be new and highly complex – it can rather build on existing information and monitoring systems

8. Analysis of 10 adaptation M&E Systems • Best practice approaches • Development process • Exemplary indicators • Lessons learned

9. Howtodeveloptheadaptation M&E system Key message: Ensure reflection at policy and decision-making level. Key message: Be country specific.There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Key message: Set realistic timelines for development of M&E system. Key message: • Bring methods (e.g. result chain, VA) in line with purpose Key message: Get inspiration from indicator repository but tailor to specific context.

10. Whattomeasure - I • Whatthe Technical Guidelines mention: • Input metrics: e.g. expertise and knowledge to support the work, provided resources; • Output metrics: products and services delivered, new skills and knowledge developed; • Process metrics: presence of leadership for each activity, a functioning peer-review process, involvement of stakeholders

11. Whattomeasure - II • Whatthe Technical Guidelines mention: • Outcome or results-based metrics: measure results that stem directly from the actions of the programme, e.g. improved adaptive capacity, the integration of CC concerns into planning and development processes, reduced vulnerability • Impact metrics:long-term consequences of outcomes, such as tangible societal benefits, a resilient society.

12. Indicatordevelopment: monitoringareas IndicatorsshouldcomplywiththeSMART rule: be S: Specific M: Measurable A: Attainable (targets) R: Relevant T: Time-bound Example: Flooding • Expected intensity of floods • No. of people at risk from flooding • % of households with safe drinking water

13. Exampleof a methodforadaptation M&E: resultschain • Annual income of small farmers per year. • Funds provided for training • No. of small scale dams under operation • Wheat yield of small farmers per year.

14. Keytipsfor a successful M&E development – I Clarify purpose: be clear about what M&E is done for (purpose), how its results should be used and by whom Designate clear responsibilities for collecting data, analysis and reporting Limit complexity of your indicator system: focus on those areas which you consider most relevant

15. Keytipsfor a successful M&E development – II Use as much as possible existing data sources and monitoring systems. Relevant questions: • What data and information are being collected already by other M&E frameworks (e.g. from agriculture, water, health, economic development etc.) and are relevant for M&E of adaptation? • Which already existing data sources refer to CC impacts, vulnerabilities, adaptation outputs and outcomes, etc.? • What could be done to make other data relevant for adaptation M&E – potentially through adjustments?

16. Exercise step1: define key areas for monitoring / drafting indicators

17. Exercise step 2: institutional set up for M&E In a second step you reflect institutional aspects of monitoring It is important that clear responsibilities for data collection and assessment as well as reporting will be designated Please work on institutional aspects and on the usability of existing monitoring systems for your country and document your findings in matrix V.1.2

The training is designed to support countries in setting up a National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. It builds on the NAP Technical Guidelines developed by the Least-Developed Countries Expert Group (LEG).
