Guidance to protect health from climate change through health adaptation planning

This guidance document is designed to ensure that the process of iteratively managing the health risks of climate change is integrated into the overall NAP process, including through assessing risks; identifying, prioritizing, and implementing adaptation options; and monitoring and evaluating the adaptation process. Supported by the LEG, the UNFCCC and other relevant partners (e.g. United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), United Nations Environment programme (UNEP), WHO, development agencies and nongovernmental organizations), countries can use the NAP process to start planning their mid- and long-term priorities to build resilience to climate change across all relevant sectors.
