What is the NAP Writing Workshop?
The NAP writing workshop is conducted by the Least Developed Countries Expert Group (LEG) and the NAP technical working group. The workshop is part of the direct country support of the LEG to LDCs in the formulation and implementation of the NAPs. It is designed to advance the finalization of the NAP and the transition towards the implementation of projects.
By involving experts from various organizations, the bi-annually LEG-organized NAP Writing Workshop gives direct hands-on training to developing countries on National Adaptation Plans since YEAR.
The 2022 NAP Writing Workshops participating countries developed 51+ concept notes for project proposals to address their adaptation priorities based on their NAP process. Read more about this projects catalogue here.
