This guide aims to support National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies’ engagement on national level policy discussions re­garding climate change adaptation, particularly through the de­velopment of National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) by their respective governments. While it will be increasingly important for National Societies to engage in the NAP process, this is a new area for the Red Cross Red Crescent. It will require the initiation of dialogue with non-traditional government partners. Published in 2013.
