The main objective of the African DevelopmentBank: is to spur sustainable development, socialprogress and poverty reduction in Africancountries (RMCs)

Climate change and variability can underminethese objectives, threatens Africa’s economicdevelopment and increase poverty. Therefore,Climate‐resilience and adaptation is key forAfrica.

Mitigation efforts should be framed within thecontext of sustainable development.

Climate‐ Resilient Dev. & Adaptation: Increased number of climate‐proofed investments  in RMCs

Enhanced capacity of RMCs to respond to CC‐related risks and vulnerabilities in different sectors.

Increased number of RMCs  with developed institutional & policy framework & regulatory reforms for addressing CC

Category 1

•Projects may be very vulnerable to climate risk

•Requires detailed evaluation of climate change risks and adaptation measures

•Comprehensive, practical risk management and adaptation measures should be integrated in project design and implementation plans

Category 2

•Projects may be vulnerable to climate risk

•Requires review of climate change risks and adaptation measures

•Practical risk management and adaptation options should be integrated into the project design and implementation plans

Category 3

•Projects are not vulnerable to climate risk

•A voluntary consideration of low cost risk management and adaptation measures is recommended but no further actions is required

To provide an effective means of tracking, assessing, correcting, and reporting on Bank programmes and projects, to ensure that CCAP results are achieved; 

To assess the impact of the Bank’s efforts to promote adaptation and low‐carbon dev. and other climate related actions on development;  

To provide results‐based guidance for the planning and implementation of climate change‐related operations.

• To provide clear and harmonized indicators and targetsfor the measurement of Bank’s actions and;

• To make available reliable data and related tools &methodologies.

Indicators considered are:• Easy to measure (practical, affordable and simple);• Produce results that can be directly linked to concrete Bank interventions (valid, 

precise and relevant); and• Measure outputs and outcomes that are directly in‐line with the Bank’s operational 

priorities as articulated in the MTS, the CRMA and the CCAPThrough piloting and testing,  the identified indicators may require further refinement .
