Synopsis (short abstract) The Integrating Agriculture into National Adaptation Plans (NAP-Ag) programme, jointly coordinated by UNDP and FAO, worked with eleven countries to identify and integrate climate adaptation measures into national planning and budgeting processes, in support of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (in particular SDG 2 - Zero Hunger; and SDG 13 - Climate Action) and the Paris Agreement. The evaluation assessed programme relevance and the achievement and sustainability of programme results among other dimensions. The evaluation found that NAP-Ag’s country-driven, multi-sector and multi-level approach allowed for ample engagement of stakeholders, contributed to establish coordination mechanisms and promoted ownership of results. The programme supported the development of institutional capacities; directly influenced the integration of agriculture adaptation options into countries’ plans, practices and policies, and supported countries in accessing climate finance. NAP-Ag also contributed to global climate change adaptation efforts by supporting countries to accomplish the work outlined by UNFCCC. NAP-Ag also influenced the inclusion of gender aspects adaptation options in many countries. FAO should continue promoting the adoption of programme outcomes in countries’ systems and further support countries to mobilize financial support to scale up lessons learned from NAP-Ag. Private sector involvement should be increased to guarantee the implementation of certain climate adaptation options. Strategic stakeholders should be engaged to support gender mainstreaming efforts in agriculture climate adaptation options.

    The Kenya Inception Workshop of the Integrating Agriculture into the NAPS is an introductory workshop, bringing together the stakeholders necessary for implementing the holistic aims of the project inside Kenya. The report written after the event is to brief both stakeholders, the UNDP and FAO on the event. The Workshop Overview of the Integrating Agriculture in NAPs Inception report enables interested parties to get a brief outline of the event, its attendants and the actions that took place without having to read the entire report. As part of a series of on reports submitted to the NAP-Ag programme, it is hoped that information can disseminated by the executive summaries to increase the effectiveness of partner countries workshops and report writing. The Workshop Overview will also serve as a quick highlight of the progress in partner countries being supported by the NAP-Ag programme. Understanding the processes done by the program’s partner countries allows for greater efficiency both inside the partner country but also among other partner countries. The Workshop Overview of the Inception report gives a breakdown of the key highlights, this allows for an immediate understanding of the outcomes of the summary without reading the entire report.
