National Adaptation Plan (NAP).

The National Adaptation Plan (NAP) establishes a comprehensive legal and strategic framework for national climate change adaptation and long-term resilience. It integrates climate risk management across primary sectors, specifically targeting agricultural and rural development, forestry, water resources management, and the preservation of wild species and ecosystems. The document serves as an instrument for aligning national socio-economic planning with international climate commitments, defining the institutional mandates of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment and other relevant agencies to coordinate cross-sectoral adaptation measures.
The text details systemic approaches to mitigating environmental hazards, focusing on the development of resilient agricultural production, food security, and irrigation infrastructure. It prioritizes the protection of forest ecosystems through sustainable land-use planning, fire management, and reforestation efforts to reach national conservation targets. Furthermore, the plan addresses water security by implementing integrated watershed management strategies, flood control mechanisms, and the protection of groundwater and wetlands, while simultaneously safeguarding biodiversity and habitats against the impacts of shifting meteorological patterns and invasive species.
The framework institutionalizes a monitoring and evaluation system centered on data collection, risk assessment, and early warning systems. It emphasizes capacity building at all levels of governance and promotes the inclusion of traditional knowledge and public-private partnerships in adaptation initiatives. By establishing standardized environmental planning and impact assessment requirements, the plan regulates the sustainable development of vulnerable economic sectors, including tourism and hydropower, ensuring that national growth remains resilient to climate-induced disruptions and extreme weather events.
