Adaptation funds cover the additional costs necessary for countries to achieve development goals in the face of climate change. Sliding scale can be used.
SCCF: Does not need to address GEBs, focus on longer term measures and planning
LCDF: Does not need to address GEBs, open to LDCs only, driven by national development priorities, focus on shorter term measures
SPA: Must address global environmental benefits (GEBs) as well as adaptation to climate change

Doing Development Differently:
Integrating climate change risks into national development plans to ensure sustainable
development
UNDP’s Mission
II. UNDP Approach
10UNDP-GEF Adaptation 10
MDG 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hungerMDG 2: Achieve universal primary education MDG 3: Promote gender equality and empower women MDG 4: Reduce child mortalityMDG 5: Improve maternal healthMDG 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases MDG 7: Ensure environmental sustainability MDG 8: Develop a Global Partnership for Development
II. UNDP Approach
In support of progress toward MDGs
UNDP’s Institutional Response to Adaptation and Development
11UNDP-GEF Adaptation 11
UNDP’s Strategic Priorities (SPs)
SP3. Public HealthPublic health maintained or enhanced
SP4. Climate Change-Related Disaster Risk ManagementExposure and vulnerability to climate change-driven risks and hazards reduced
SP1. Agriculture and Food SecurityFood security and food production maintained or enhanced
SP5. Coastal DevelopmentExposure and vulnerability of population, infrastructure & economic activity reduced
SP2. Water Resources and QualityWater availability and supply maintained
II. UNDP Approach
12UNDP-GEF Adaptation 12
UNDP’s focus
•Adaptation to climate variability (short- to medium- term)
•Adaptation to projected climate change (long-term)
•Adaptation measures to ensure sustainability of adaptation through support for policy, governance, planning and capacity building

Thematic Distribution of UNDP Adaptation Projects
II. UNDP Approach
18UNDP-GEF Adaptation 18
• SPA – International Waters• $975,000 in GEF funds• Status: PDF-A approved
Goal: Reduce climate related risks for coastal wetlands and activities related to their sustainable use
Example MSP Outcomes:• Capacity for planning, stakeholder engagement,
implementation, and M&E of adaptation measures to address sustainable development of coastal areas enhanced
• Timely information on changes in climate, runoff and river discharges, coastal morphology and wetland ecosystem health made available in user-friendly format to decision-makers at the national and local levels
II. UNDP Approach
Climate Change Adaptation in Coastal Areas, Uruguay
19UNDP-GEF Adaptation 19
II. UNDP Approach
• SCCF – Adapting planning and policies
• $3 million in GEF funds, $6 million co-financing• Status: PDF-B approved
Outcomes:• Policy environment and governance structure for effective
water management strengthened• Information and knowledge management on climate risks
in Ecuador improved• Sustainable water and water-related risk management
practices to withstand the effects of climate change applied
Adaptation to Climate Change through Effective Water Governance in Ecuador
