This rapid umbrella review systematically synthesises evidence regarding the effectiveness of climate change adaptation interventions. It focuses on strategies implemented across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), encompassing regions such as Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
How do we know what really works in helping communities adapt to climate change? Despite growing global investment, major knowledge gaps remain around which interventions deliver the greatest impact, and what enables or hinders their success.
Agulhas was commissioned to help address this gap, undertaking a rapid umbrella review to inform the programming and priority-setting of the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office – Research, Science and Technology, as it prepares for the next phase of International Climate Finance (ICF).
