Policy guidance
Abstract
This policy guidance is intended to provide policy makers and practitioners in development co-operation agencies with information and advice on how to mainstream climate change into development. It is a joint endeavour by the OECD’s Environment Policy Committee (EPOC) and Development Assistance Committee (DAC) in response to the 2006 OECD Declaration on Integrating Climate Adaptation into Development Co-operation, which commits OECD members to “work to better integrate climate change adaptation in development planning and assistance, both with their own governments and in activities undertaken with partner countries.”
