For instance, Rwanda has communicated a range of adaptation actions to be fully or partially achieved by 2050 based on the Rwanda’s Green Growth and Climate Resilient Strategy that was put in place in 2011. For instance, Guinea-Bissau’s INDC adopts both short-term targets and medium- to long-term targets (i.e. 2025-2030), and each of the timescales has specific adaptation actions associated with it. Other countries use different timescales to communicate different financial needs (e.g. the INDC of Lao People’s Republic whereby, for instance, the estimated cost of adaptation until 2030 is indicated for the agriculture sector, and the costs of adaptation for transport and public health are estimated for the period until 2020). It will be important for countries to recognise what actions will need to be evaluated in the long run, and what will need more frequent monitoring and evaluation.
