Co Benefits of adaptation, mitigation and development: ICF background paper prepared for the Department for International Development International
This paper feeds into the adaptation component for the DFID International Climate Fund (ICF) strategy
Abstract
This background paper feeds into the adaptation component for the DFID International Climate Fund (ICF) strategy. It attempts to synthesise the evidence base relating to the co-benefits between adaptation and mitigation, and to those between adaptation and development. Some of the generic co-benefits and co-costs potentially associated with adaptation activities in relation to mitigation and development are outlined for human health, resilient agriculture, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable forestry and ecosystem services.
