Thematic Sectors

NAP primarily focuses on four priority sectors and different sub sectors Subsequently, 13 components have been identified through system dynamic analysis for the sectors and sub sectors

SSP 1-2.6(2030) and SSP5-8.5 (2030, 2050) scenarios have been considered (IPCC AR 6)

National Adaptation Plan

“ Bangladesh is preparing NAP as a means of identifying " medium and long term adaptation need & developing and implementing strategies and programs to address those needs.

Three key aspectes

  • Formulate the Bangladesh NAP
  • Ensure the climate change adaptation is mainstreamed into the national planning process
  • Building transformative capacity, institutional strengthening and enhanced financing
  • NAP Priority Sectors

Vision and Goals of NAP

Key Consideration for setting the Vision and Goals are

The promotion of green growth strategies, backed by sustainable nature-based solutions for balancing economic growth and environmental sustainability, has been sought as a means of ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA).

Reducing climate risks and vulnerability through effective adaptation strategies for fostering a resilient society, ecosystem and stimulating sustainable economic growth

Vision of NAP

Key Adaptation Strattegies of NAP in nutshell- Total six Goals, 22 Strategic actions and 26 outcomes against strategic action
