Adaptation finance is finance for actions designed to help communities reduce the harm they might suffer from climate hazards like storms or droughts.
Adaptation finance includes projects such as stronger buildings, more drought-tolerant crops, social safety nets, and improved decision-making around climate-related risks.
Adaptation finance includes finance from developed to developing countries, and finance that governments invest domestically to cover the costs of climate change impacts within their own borders.
Adaptation finance can also come from private sources.
