The Resilience for Peace and Stability, Food and Water Security Innovation Grant Programme was one of the nine winners of the GEF Challenge Fund. The project was implemented in Uganda by Mountain Harvest through Lutheran World Relief (LWR) and in Sudan by the Near East Foundation from 2022-2024.
This study reviewed ~130 urban resilience solutions implemented by for-profit and not-for-profit organisations in cities in the Global South, with a focus on informal contexts. The research included a comprehensive literature review, in-depth qualitative interviews with funders and implementers, and a large-scale survey.
This publication by GRP Partner CARE highlights the importance of integrating blue foods into national climate strategies to support climate action and sustainability.
This guide provides a practical case study of what this sequencing looked like throughout CARE’s Locally-led Adaptation Pilot (LLAP) in Southern Zambia and provides insights on how practitioners can design adaptation planning processes from analysis to action. It also also thereby offers insight as to types of investments needed from donors and governments.
Between early 2022 – and early 2024, CARE conducted a Locally-led Adaptation Pilot (LLAP) in Southern Zambia, to implement the full cycle of adaptation planning from analysis to action with communities facing greater climate vulnerability due to increasing droughts, floods, and erratic rainfall patterns. This Brief describes this sequencing throughout the pilot, and provides key messages for how donors, policymakers, and adaptation practitioners can better design and support effective and equitable adaptation.
The Sharm El-Sheikh Adaptation Agenda (SAA) offers near-term solutions for resilience, addressing global challenges, with transformative opportunities highlighted in this implementation report.
This paper aims to determine to what extent countries incorporated climate adaptation and resilience into their COVID-19 recovery measures during the first two years of the pandemic.
This report outlines the first year of the 'Roof Over Our Heads' (ROOH) campaign, launched at COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. ROOH focuses on climate-resilient housing solutions for informal settlements in Global South cities. Emphasising community empowerment, incremental upgradation, and collaboration with stakeholders, the campaign aims to improve living conditions for most impacted populations worldwide.
This report synthesises the key findings and recommendations for action from the COP28 Resilience Hub and aims to help set the direction for future action towards COP29 and beyond. The report first provides an overview of the key adaptation and resilience decisions and announcements that took place during COP28; it then presents the key messages and findings from the events of the Resilience Hub and offers concluding remarks and a guidepost for the year ahead.
COP28 has called all parties to move away from fossil fuels, sending a critical message to policy makers and business leaders that the transition to renewable energy is inevitable. However, a stronger alignment between biodiversity and climate policies is needed to tackle climate change to avoid impacting biodiversity. The authors present seven key points to consider for climate change mitigation that aim to reduce trade-offs and maximize synergies between biodiversity and climate action.
Climate change requires substantial changes into “business as usual” which will require a high level of innovation from a wide range of stakeholders. The ability to fail as a precondition for the development of highly innovative solutions is well documented in many sectors. The key question driving the investigations in the work is: Are we allowing enough failure for innovation to thrive?
From Risk to Reward is a study by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) in collaboration with the Global Resilience Partnership (GRP) and United States Agency for International Development (USAID) that lays out the investment thesis for the private sector to finance climate adaptation and resilience. BCG’s analysis aims to inform industry-wide actions at this critical time. This report details the adaptation and resilience business case, laying out three key opportunities for the private sector to secure value and identifying the specific entry points for finance. This report is part of BCG’s contribution to the PREPARE Call to Action to the Private Sector.
