Abstract

This panel discussion will seek to identify clear, near-term scientific messages on adaptation opportunities for the COP26 Adaptation and Resilience Theme priority. The session will address key questions such as: - What would you like to see in the CoP26 settlement to enhance capacity for adaptation nationally and internationally? - What would you like to see in the CoP26 settlement to realise the opportunity adaptation has for combating poverty nationally and internationally? - Can COVID-19 impacts on society and economy, and renewal investment plans be an opportunity to help focus the poverty alleviating opportunity of adaptation? - How might research funding and practice best enable innovative, pro-poor adaptation?
