01In brief

The short answer.

Climate and Nature Governance country programmes are listed one by one, each country with a programme record showing its work on climate and hazards and its status. A country appears only when such a record exists; national institutions lead under country ownership, and the platform supplies evidence and methods.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
National applications: a programme through its gatesA request with a named owner becomes a scoping note; inputs are qualified at a gate; delivery runs in workstreams; a controlled test and an independent review precede publication; the owner decides. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

03Geography

Climate signals in the Andes.

For national applications, in GRF's situational-awareness reading, the map opens on population density and night lights with place names and borders from NASA GIBS, framed on the Andes; 4 further NASA layers wait in the list.

The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.

  1. 01

    Adaptation institutions

    Mandates, financing and accountability.

  2. 02

    Climate risk governance

    Risk science translation into governance.

  3. 03

    Nature and biodiversity law

    Ecosystem stewardship and public authority.

  4. 04

    River basin governance

    Shared waters and transboundary mechanisms.

  5. 05

05National plans

The national documents a programme reads together.

  • Nationally determined contribution and its adaptation component.
  • National adaptation plan.
  • National biodiversity strategy and action plan.
  • Land degradation neutrality targets.
  • National disaster risk reduction strategy.
  • Biennial transparency report.

The programme asks where the documents assign the same area or resource to different purposes.

06Status

Work is shown as its record stands.

Programmes are listed as exploring, forming, constituted, active, paused or archived. Country and regional entries appear when a programme record supports them.

07Key terms

Terms used on this page.

Each term as this page uses it. Where a standard-setting body defines the term, the wording follows that body.

TermDefinition
Country ownershipThe principle that a country leads its own development policies and strategies and coordinates the actions that support them, set out in the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness.
National Nexus ConsortiumIn the Consortium's national model, the body through which a country's institutions take part in Nexus work, formed under a national record with its own leadership and working groups.
Programme statusThe recorded state of a programme on Nexus pages: exploring, forming, constituted, active, paused or archived. A plan is never presented as an activity.
