There are many examples of technologies that can be used to collect data, provide information and increase awareness for coastal adaptation to climate change, to plan and design adaptation strategies, to implement adaptation strategies and to monitor and evaluate their performance.

She stressed that adaptation is a cross cutting activity under the UNFCCC and that the SBSTA, as requested by decision 1 CP.10, is preparing a five year structured programme of work on adaptation that would address four main themes methodologies, data and modelling vulnerability assessments adaptation planning, measures and actions (where most of the work on technologies for adaptation fits) and integration into sustainable development.

Adaptation Fund

Needs adaptation

2. Adaptation

Some Parties attributed the difficulties relating to vulnerability and adaptation assessment to the lack of country specific socio economic scenarios, the lack of collection, quality control, archiving, retrieval, preparation and analysis of data, and the lack of comprehensive studies on possible adaptation measures and cost benefit analysis of adaptation options (e.g. Brazil, China, India, South Africa).

What is adaptation?

Planned adaptation can be both reactive and anticipatory, while autonomous adaptation is only reactive.

Assessing adaptation strategies and technologies

Adaptation Adaptation has, since COP 8, emerged as a more central element of the climate change intergovernmental process.

He mentioned plans for an online database of adaptation options to share local knowledge and endogenous adaptation techniques.

On adaptation, he pointed out that households have been implementing different technologies for adaptation for decades, and that many decisions on adaptation are taken at the community level through farm associations.

The Adaptation Fund Purpose The Adaptation Fund was created to assist developing country parties that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change to meet the costs of adaptation.

Most of the adaptation options were identified using the IPCC Technical Guidelines for Assessing Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation to evaluate and determine the cost of specific adaptation strategies and measures.

Another adaptation would be this piece.

UNFCCC Expert Meeting on Adaptation Technologies

How can technologies contribute to adaptation?

FCCC TP 1997 3 Adaptation technologies

Climate change impacts, adaptation measures and response strategies Serious constraints to the assessment of vulnerability and adaptation in non Annex I Parties were the lack of data, quality control, archiving, retrieval, preparation and analysis of data to meet the demands of the methodologies for assessments, as well as Parties' inability to conduct the type of assessments that would generate results reliable enough to be incorporated into the national planning processes.

SBSTA is developing a five year structured programme of work built around the following issues methodologies, data and modelling vulnerability assessments adaptation planning, measures and actions and integration into sustainable development.

It's a very clever adaptation of religions.

Endogenous technologies for adaptation to climate change

There was an urgent need for adaptation.

Meeting the challenges adaptation, flexibility and professionalism

Adaptation of the services provided by institutions.

Adaptation to climate change can be autonomous.

Climate change impacts, adaptation measures and response strategies All Parties followed the UNFCCC guidelines for reporting on impacts, vulnerability and adaptation.

Considering adaptation technologies within a broader discussion of adaptation issues is a relatively new challenge for governments and the private sector.
