From indicators to impact: measuring adaptation and resilience through the Belém Adaptation Indicators

As countries advance climate adaptation implementation, measuring progress and resilience outcomes is becoming essential for effective decision-making. This COP 31 side event will explore how the Belém Adaptation Indicators can help track adaptation progress under the Global Goal on Adaptation while minimizing reporting burdens and building on existing data systems. Through a fireside chat, participants will share early country experiences, examine lessons from the Sendai Framework and SDGs, and discuss opportunities to align climate adaptation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development monitoring to strengthen resilience, reduce risk, and support evidence-based action.
