Locally - Led Adaptation Metrics for Africa (LAMA)
The LAMA Platform aims to convene diverse stakeholders engaged in LLA initiatives across Africa, facilitating the exchange of experiences in co developing metrics, tools, and indicators. The platform will consolidate locally led and inclusive frameworks and data to inform the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) and Global Stocktake (GST).
Objectives
Capacity Building
Provide expert support to African countries and researchers to enhance their capacity in developing adaptation indicators that effectively capture local priorities in an inclusive manner.
Knowledge Sharing
Facilitate the sharing of experiences and best practices in adaptation measurement among various projects and initiatives operating at the local level.
Framework Development:
Consolidate knowledge and priorities regarding adaptation metrics in Africa, aligning them with national and global frameworks such as National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), the GGA, and the GST.
