Providing additional finance for adaptation is a key element of the emerging international climate change framework.<\/p>\n

This paper discusses how adaptation funding may be allocated among developing countries in a transparent, efficient and equitable way.<\/p>\n

We propose an approach based on three criteria:<\/p>\n

The climate change impact experienced in a country,<\/li>\n
A country’s adaptive (or social) capacity;<\/li>\n
And, its implementation capacity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Rough indicators are proposed for each of these three dimensions.<\/p>\n
Physical impact and adaptive capacity together determine a country’s vulnerability to climate change. It seems both efficient and fair that countries which are more vulnerable should have a stronger claim on adaptation resources.<\/p>\n
The third dimension, implementation capacity, introduces a measure of adaptation effectiveness. It makes sense to focus adaptation finance on countries with the capacity to use these resources efficiently.<\/p>\n
