The IGAD region is currently facing enormous adaptation challenges and stands to bear the brunt of the most severe near-term climate change impacts. In response to these challenges, the IGAD Climate Adaptation Strategy (2023-2030) was developed to provide a framework for coordinated action to address climate risks and enhance the resilience and adaptive capacities of IGAD Member States. This first-ever regional-wide adaptation Strategy displays the renewed commitment of IGAD to climate adaptation as a key development priority and presents an opportunity to chart a climate-resilient, participatory future for the IGAD region. AICCRA provided IGAD with research and evidence in the drafting of this Strategy, as well as provided case studies of best adaptation practices.
