"Evaluating Sub-State Government Adaptation Strategies: Advancing Territorial Climate Justice"
Location: Spanish Pavilion, Blue Zone, COP29, Baku, Azerbaijan
With the establishment of the Global Goal on Adaptation, the international community is increasingly focused on how to effectively measure adaptation efforts. This event will explore how subnational governments and key adaptation stakeholders are developing their own measurement systems to track progress. It will also examine how these stakeholders are improving their actions by monitoring their advancement toward climate justice. This event aims to contribute to the global dialogue on adaptation by sharing practical, locally informed strategies that can influence global frameworks for adaptation monitoring and evaluation.
