Practitioners (SEA Change and UKCIP, 2013, 2014) and the Adaptation Committee (AC, 2016) have developed syntheses and inventories of existing adaptation monitoring and evaluation tools and frameworks.7 In addition to the aforementioned LEG guidelines for National Adaptation Plans, a subset of the literature focuses on providing guidance to develop national level systems for monitoring and evaluation (GIZ and IISD, 2016), or providing information and insights from a set of existing systems (OECD, 2015b, EEA, 2015, GIZ and IISD 2013). The large majority of the Parties mentioning adaptation monitoring and evaluation in their NDCs indicate that they are still in the process of developing their national approach (Kato and Ellis, 2016). This means that there is limited experience with mid-term and end-term evaluations of policies at the national level.
