#COP30 amplifies calls to close the $365 billion gap 📢 As GCA’s #LocallyLedAdaptation Lead Anju Sharma puts it, "As the adaptation finance gap grows wider, the willingness of countries to support the climate-vulnerable seems to be diminishing. It is a moral imperative for the global community not only to provide adaptation finance, but to do so in a way that ensures it reaches those most in need" 🔗 tbsnews.net/world/fill-ada… #AdaptOurWorld

Day 2 at the Devolution Conference 2025 – Another Remarkable Moment for Homa Bay! Today, we were honored to welcome Hon. Raila Odinga as he visited the Homa Bay Municipality physical model at the County Pavilion — a powerful visual representation of a future shaped by community-driven planning, spatial data, and a bold urban vision. His visit affirmed the importance of long-term, inclusive planning in shaping the future of Kenyan cities and towns — and we’re proud that Homa Bay continues to lead by example. At the same time, things are buzzing over at Booth 218, where we’re engaging with attendees from across the country on the Homa Bay Local Physical and Land Use Development Plan. We’re also showcasing our work in water and sanitation, riparian planning, school feeding, and community research — all part of our commitment to building more just, resilient, and liveable urban spaces. 🌍 From national leaders to county officials, community groups to planners — this conference continues to be a space of shared vision and inspiration. Devolution is alive. Transformation is local. The future is people-led. 📍Come visit us at Booth 218! #DevolutionConference2025 #HomaBayPlan #TransformingCounties #UrbanPlanningKenya #ClimateResilientCities #PeopleLedPlanning #InnovationInAction

Under Governor Wanga’s leadership, GCA supported Kenya’s first locally led, climate-resilient municipal development plan in Homa Bay. 🇰🇪 What began as an adaptation plan became a community-driven vision for inclusive development—designed by the people, for the people. Youth from informal settlements and Tom Mboya University worked side by side, shaping a resilient future from the ground up. 🔗 Read more: llahub.gca.org/articles/21e65…

The Global Center on Adaptation today initiated engagement with faculty of the Bangladesh Public Administrators Training Centre to develop a course module on #LocallyLedAdaptation for public administrators across vulnerable sectors in Bangladesh. BPATC Rector Sayeed Mahbub Khan and Member Directing Staff Md. Mohoshin Ali highlighted this unique opportunity for BPATC and Bangladesh to integrate #LLA in national responses to climate change. @GCAdaptation’s Global Lead LLA, Anju Sharma, said this pioneering initiative will inform GCA’s efforts to institutionalize #LLA in government training institutes in other countries. @BpatcSavar @ihserasmusuni @m_shamsuddoha #GlobalHubonLLA #LocallyLedAdaptation #AdaptOurWorld

106 low-income communities in Chattogram co-created their own water and sanitation adaptation plans. Backed by GCA through our Global Hub on LLA, these plans are essential for inclusive and climate-resilient urban developments. Locally led adaptation isn’t just effective—it’s essential.

Bringing community voices to the national stage! 📣 Findings from People’s Adaptation Plans for inclusive water and sanitation services—developed by 106 low-income communities across 17 wards in #Chattogram—were presented at a national consultation organized by GCA, @WaterAidBD and DSK in Dhaka. 🔗 Read more: lnkd.in/d7t8x2Zf #LocallyLedAdaptation #Resilience #ResilientCities #Adaptation #GlobalHubOnLLA #AdaptOurWorld

Key takeaways: 🔹Locally led adaptation must move beyond project-based approaches to long-term, programmatic strategies embedded in governance structures. Local Adaptation Plans should integrate indigenous and scientific knowledge, while ensuring their implementation is owned and led by local actors and communities. 🔹While numerous funding mechanisms have been established over the years, resource allocation often overlooks local priorities and access remains highly challenging for local communities and actors. 🔹Farmers must be at the forefront of adaptation efforts, leading the way in building resilience. Strengthening public-private partnerships in the agriculture sector holds great potential for enhancing food security in the face of climate change impacts

🌍 On Day 2 of the event Institutionalizing Locally Led Adaptation in South Asia, insightful discussions continued across key themes, including Nature-Based Solutions, Water Security, and Financing LLA from the Public Sector Perspective. Participants emphasized the need for community-led, science-backed Nature-based solutions that harness indigenous knowledge and build long-term resilience. Integrating decentralized strategies is essential for water governance, while ensuring accountability between funders and communities is crucial for effective climate adaptation financing.
