Introduction
Building climate resilience through NAPs, and addressing climate risks at local and national level interlinks with economic resilience of communities and countries. NAPs could play a key role in contributing to reducing vulnerabilities of communities through climate risk management and risk transfer options, and livelihood generation through the integration of entrepreneurial and support for enhancing livelihood support to vulnerable groups and communities, especially such as women, youth and migrant communities, that could lead to enhanced and holistic climate resilience.
This session aims to identify ways to integrate climate-resilient entrepreneurship through sharing of good practices, discussion of avenues for integrating inclusive and climate-resilient entrepreneurship into NAPs as a key activity, which facilitate partnerships and multi-stakeholder engagement for effective and forward-thinking adaptation at local and national levels.
The session will consist of an introduction to entrepreneurship in NAPs, including an overview of the landscape and avenues for integrating entrepreneurship into NAP-related activities and good practices and lessons learned from country case studies. This will be followed by an open dialogue to facilitate an interactive discussion on entrepreneurship in NAPs and exchange experiences between different countries, actors, and stakeholder groups.
