health sectors implemented and community-based adaptation
action promoted.
c.
Financing options to meet national adaptation costs,
including PPP and private participation, expanded at the local
and national levels are developed

development processes to fully incorporate climate change risks
is increased and opportunities thus generated are shared across
all levels.
