Adaptation Insights – Pathways to scale investments in Nature-based Solutions for Climate Adaptation
This Adaptation Insights builds on GCA technical assistance to integrate green and grey adaptation measures into large-scale infrastructure investment programs under the Africa Adaptation Acceleration Program. It further draws on advanced research conducted by the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford, in partnership with GCA, on the application of spatial analytics and financial frameworks to scale nature-based solutions for transport infrastructure resilience globally (Scaling Investments for NbS: GCA portal). The observations presented reflect cumulative evidence and experience derived from collaboration with multilateral development banks and implementation partners engaged in mainstreaming climate adaptation within infrastructure planning and finance.
