Overview

A comparative review reveals insights on policy and research alignment in climate adaptation efforts, suggesting improvements.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the alignment between climate adaptation policies and studies, identifying gaps and synergies.
  • Conducted a comparative review of climate adaptation policies and studies.
  • Developed an analytical framework across four dimensions: attention level, adaptation target, action, and scale.
  • Assessed the evolution of policy-research interactions over time.
  • Overall alignment between policies and studies is relatively strong.
  • Higher alignment noted in urban settings, climate risk management, and water resource management.
  • Moderate alignment found in coastal areas and health, while ecosystems showed low alignment.
  • Weaknesses identified in adaptation scale, with limited studies at regional and community levels.
