Stepping Up Adaptation to Climate Change
Guild, Robert; Drilon, Maria Lourdes | August 2013
Abstract
The Pacific Islands Forum leaders have long recognized climate change as a priority development issue that requires coordinated global efforts for a more effective response. ADB's position allows it to analyze the complex problems at all levels, identify appropriate solutions based on a comprehensive understanding of the countries' needs and capacities, and mobilize technical and financial assistance. For their part, Pacific developing member countries (DMCs) have begun to mainstream climate change considerations in their national policies and planning processes.
