Summary:
National adaptation programmes of action (NAPAs) provide a process for Least Developed Countries (LDCs) to identify priority activities that respond to their urgent and immediate needs to adapt to climate change – those for which further delay would increase vulnerability and/or costs at a later stage.
The following is the preface for Togo's NAPA:
Les changements climatiques constituent l’un des plus grands défis auxquels l’humanité fait face aujourd’hui.

Summary:
The purpose of the proposed NAPA formulation project for Bangladesh is the development of a countrywide program that encompasses the immediate and urgent adaptation activities that address the current and anticipated adverse effects of climate change, including extreme events. The goal of the NAPA formulation for Bangladesh is the provision of a framework to guide the coordination and implementation of adaptation initiatives in the country, through a participatory approach and building synergies with other relevant environmental and related programs.
Project Components:
• Establishment of a Project Management Office (PMO) inside the MEF, and appointment of a National Project Director (NPD), a National Project Coordinator (NPC), and 1 or 2 Senior Advisors.
