Chapter 2. Framing the Adaptation Gap Report - Adaptation Gap Report 2021: The Gathering Storm - Adapting to Climate Change in a Post-pandemic World

The Adaptation Gap Report AGR2021 builds on the framing first introduced in the 2020 edition of the report to further advance knowledge on adaptation progress around the world. It focuses on adaptation progress at the global and national scales, relying primarily on publications from national governments (for example, documents submitted under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change [UNFCCC] process). It has also expanded the sources of information to include recent peer-reviewed scientific literature and reports by multilateral organizations and think tanks. This chapter frames the report both in terms of the climate risk context within which adaptation is taking place (section 2.2) and the conceptual and methodological approach used to understand adaptation progress (section 2.3).
