Reports
The COP26 climate summit in Glasgow saw important progress made on the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA). However, there is much work still to be done to bring the GGA concept to life. Striking a balance between the GGA serving its ‘global’ purpose, whilst providing sufficient flexibility for countries to describe their own adaptation objectives and progress will ultimately determine the effectiveness of the GGA.
Peer-reviewed Papers
Assessing global progress on human adaptation to climate change is an urgent priority. Although the literature on adaptation to climate change is rapidly expanding, little is known about the actual extent of implementation. This paper systematically screened >48,000 articles using machine learning methods and a global network of 126 researchers to identify eight priority areas for research.
Peer-reviewed Papers
Constraints and limits to adaptation are critical to understanding the extent to which human and natural systems can successfully adapt to climate change.
Peer-reviewed Papers
This study assesses trajectories of adaptation readiness in comparison with the continued emergence of hot days as a proxy for climate change hazards for different emission and socio-economic pathways over the 21st century.
Briefings
This briefing note looks at what the process of knowledge brokering is, and how it can be supported in the Pacific region for decisions sensitive to climate change.
