Since 2020, GWPO has mobilised NDC Partnership funding for 16 projects across 12 countries. That support is accessible and catalytic, and it comes with technical assistance from our Regional Water Partnerships. Our final story comes from Peru.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Challenge<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Peru\u2019s National Adaptation Plan identifies water as a priority, and its NDC includes 31 water adaptation measures to be implemented in river basins vulnerable to climate change. Delivering them requires two things: a common way to measure climate risk in each basin, and regional strategies that turn national targets into local action. In La Libertad, the regional climate strategy had expired in 2021, and only 9 of 53 NDC adaptation measures were under way by 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The support<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With NDC Partnership funding, GWP South America supported Peru on both fronts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>At national level<\/strong>, GWP supported the final review and publication of the National Water Authority\u2019s (ANA) Guide for Analysing and Estimating Climate Change Risk in River Basins. The guide was developed with the Ministry of Environment (MINAM) and the sectors that implement Peru\u2019s water NDC, and refined with the country\u2019s 14 River Basin Councils. In 2024, a final validation round brought these sectors together with SENAMHI and INAIGEM as technical references. The guide gives basin authorities a step-by-step method to estimate climate risk district by district. Risk is assessed for drinking water, agriculture and energy, both now and for 2030 and 2050, so that adaptation investment can be directed where it is needed most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>At regional level<\/strong>, the Regional Government of La Libertad updated its Regional Climate Change Strategy. A series of participatory workshops between December 2023 and March 2024 brought together a multi-sector technical group. The strategy maps climate risk across five priority areas: water, agriculture, health, fisheries and aquaculture, and forests and ecosystems. It also includes an updated greenhouse gas inventory, an analysis of the barriers to implementation, and an action plan with adaptation and mitigation measures aligned to the NDC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why it matters<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">National adaptation plans succeed when they reach the basins and regions where climate impacts are felt. By pairing a national risk method with a regional strategy, this work gives Peru the tools to prioritise, plan and finance NAP actions on the ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
