In order to assist developing countries particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, Climate Analytics assist in streamlining climate plans into national development strategies, hence improving effectiveness of implementation and fundability of such projects at regional and national level.
Our team involved in the implementation strategies has wide range of experience on facilitation of national and regional climate change processes, including capacity building activities targeted for government and other stakeholders.
Publications
Every country has an important role to play in increasing the ambition of domestic climate action in response to our collective climate crisis. This report looks at the main mechanisms and drivers for the uptake of climate policies beyond just the borders of the country implementing them.
This study (in French), ‘Forest and Climate Governance in the Republic of Congo: Challenges and Prospects’, aims to assess forest governance in the Congo and its links with deforestation and land degradation in light of the climate objectives set in its nationally determined contribution (NDC) to the Paris Agreement.
Current needs for climate services in West Africa: Results from two stakeholder surveysPeer reviewed
ISIpedia recently published a study that assesses the current needs of climate services in West Africa and provides implications for development of future climate services, in conjunction with CLIMAP, a Senegalese initiative that will provide climate projections designed especially for the agriculture sector. The results were drawn from two different surveys conducted by the two initiatives with the aim of understanding the state of climate service use in the region and identifying design principles for effective climate services.
Theory of Change (ToC) has become a common buzzword in climate adaptation circles in recent years. As a growing number of donors and financing entities require theories of change it can feel like yet another hoop to jump through, especially for Small Island Developing States (SIDS) where resources are limited and staff are often over-stretched. So why should busy adaptation practitioners respond positively to ToC and why does it matter? And what does ToC mean anyway, and how do you start developing one?
This article provides an overview of the challenges of adaptation tracking and propose a comprehensive conceptual framework for assessing adaptation progress by governments that is scalable over time and across contexts.
Benin: Scientific knowledge on impact, vulnerability and adaptation to climate change (in French)Reports
A broad picture of the existing scientific knowledge on impacts, vulnerability, adaptation options and strategies available in Benin for the three priority sectors (Water Resources, Health and Agriculture). [French]
Senegal: stocktaking of the integration of climate change in the policies and strategies at national and regional level (in French)Reports
An analysis of the institutional and political context of climate change in Senegal has been undertaken, evaluating the processes incorporating the scientific information in the formulation of policies and strategies and analysing the consideration of the dimension of climate change in the regional development policies.

Projects
The EmBARK-project investigates time scales and possible trajectories of socio-economic transformation processes and analyse their relevance as potential barriers to adaptation to climate change. An improved understanding of the temporal dynamics of such barriers is key in developing a more realistic understanding of future climate impacts and for scientifically robust assessment of future climate related loss and damage.
