Learning Grants support National Implementing Entities (NIEs) in capturing, systematizing, and disseminatingpractical lessons from adaptation projects. By strengthening the link between learning and implementation, they help ensure that project experience is translated into accessible, actionable knowledge that can inform future adaptation efforts.
Through the Learning Grants, NIEs can access up toUS$500,000 in funding to strengthen learning, knowledge management, and knowledge-sharing on climate adaptation.
Learning Grants contribute to the Adaptation Fund’s 2023-2027 Medium-Term Strategy by strengthening how adaptation knowledge is generated, collected, and applied to improve climate resilience. They support targeted knowledge activities that benefit not only the Fund’s portfolio, but also the wider adaptation community.
