Getting started with Open NAPs

Open NAPs are National Adaptation Plans for developing countries being developed through an open collaboration involving a wide range of actors, designed to support countries develop the best possible adaptation plans along the guidelines established by the UNFCCC Conference of Parties, and further elaborated through technical guidelines led by the LDC Expert Group (LEG), with continuing extension through supplements developed by a wide range of organizations.

The Open NAP initiative is moderated by the LEG under the UNFCCC. For more information about the work of the LEG, visit [1]
