Key messages:
* Measurement and tracking of adaptation at the national level is important in assessing adaptation progress towards achieving the Paris Agreement goals.
* More than 400 indicators for tracking adaptation progress are included in Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) of African countries. * Most of the indicators focus on measuring and tracking short- and medium-term adaptation results (outputs).
* More efforts are required to develop robust indicators for measuring and tracking adaptation along it’s various dimensions and facilitate long-term adaptation planning.
* A thematic approach towards adaptation tracking allow countries to measure context-sensitive indicators while allowing aggregation and comparison at different scales in the context of the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA).
