Dr Katharine Vincent is in Malawi this week to finalise the proposal development for the ADAPT-PLAN project, that integrates adaptation into development planning at national and local levels. The concept has already been approved by the GEF as eligible for Least Developed Countries Fund monies. Following the various district and national-level consultations undertaken during the PPG phase, the project proposal will be presented to the Climate Change Technical Committee at their 26th meeting on Thursday and Friday. The finalisation of the project proposal will also require the firming up of intended partnerships and agreements on the co-financing aspects.
