This informal expert meeting, held 13-14 March 2002 in Paris, combined experts from both the climate policy (largely adaptation experts) and the development policy communities. Participants from developing and developed countries, and from relevant inter-governmental organisations, covered a range of questions, including the value-added of OECD contributions on development and climate; adaptation financing issues; scope, structure and criteria for possible case studies.
