Developing an Integrated National Plan for Climate Change Adaptation

Since 2015, the West Africa Biodiversity and Climate Change Program (WA BiCC) has worked with partners at the regional, national and landscape levels in West Africa to increase coastal resilience. WA BiCC’s approach strengthens and operates on linkages between policy and practice, such that relevant policies are informed by practices pulled up from the local and national level, and are in turn filtered down more widely from the regional level to local and national levels and disseminated to national and landscape levels through an on-going feedback loop. This learning brief examines this policy-to-practice feedback loop in the context of the support WA BiCC provided to develop a climate change adaptation plan (CCAP) in Sierra Leone.
