The document discusses the progress of countries in implementing national adaptation policies, focusing on effectiveness in reducing climate risk and the importance of accountability. It highlights insights from the OECD adaptation measurement survey, emphasizing the role of indicators in tracking adaptation outcomes and the challenges faced in defining and using these indicators. Additionally, it outlines the proposed next steps for developing policy guidance and measurement frameworks to support adaptation efforts.

- 21. Questions for discussion 1. Would it be useful, and if so how, to help establish policy guidance on: a. designing measurement frameworks b. setting adaptation objectives and targets c. supporting the development of adaptation indicators? 2. How can the proposed work on indicators contribute to advancing your national efforts? Would it be useful to provide a “typology” of adaptation indicators and assess the extent of their use to support adaptation measurement? 3. If a focus is chosen to narrow down the analysis, what angle might be most useful for your country such as sectoral- or local-level focus, hazard-focus (e.g. wildfires, droughts)? Would more work on developing local to national measurement systems be useful? 4. Do you want to be more actively involved in ongoing activities, and if so, how?
