Climate change poses serious challenges to countries' social and economic development. Adaptation therefore needs to be an integral component of countries' climate change policies. The OECD supports governments' adaptation efforts by providing the analytical foundations needed to develop efficent and effective adaptation policies, and helps to facilitate the integration of adaptation into development co-operation activities. OECD work on adaptation to climate change focusses on three main areas:
|
The OECD provides guidance on the range of different economic policies and tools that countries will need to implement efficient adaptation.
|
Developing countries will be particularly affected by climate change - the OECD is working to integrate effective adaptation into development activities.
|
OECD analysis is helping developed countries to make sure that key economic sectors and vulnerable groups are prepared for climate change.
