• Building strong and lasting institutional arrangements through formal legislation and mandates;

• Setting a long-term vision on the benefits of the adaptation actions;

• Designing of umbrella national programmes to oversee adaptation planning including priority setting, mobilizing and managing resources, facilitating implementation, overseeing monitoring and evaluation, etc.;

• Building explicit and strong linkages to the GCF country programming strategy, the UNDAF, bilateral agency frameworks, and other related strategies and frameworks;

• Timing and sequencing of the actions, taking into account links to development, interdependencies, cost effectiveness, synergy and benefits;

• Paying special consideration to the guiding principles of NAPs such as with respect to gender responsiveness and consideration of the most vulnerable, country-drivenness, involvement of multiple stakeholders and  basing adaptation planning on best available science.
