Participatory Consultation Process to develop the National Adaptation Plan

The ?Participatory Consultation Process to develop the National Adaptation Plan? was implemented in 2015 by the National Directorate for Climate Change (DNCC) of Honduras. Previous to the drafting of the National Adaptation Plan (PNA), and with support from the Honduran Association of Non-Governmental Organizations (ASONOG), the DNCC implemented 16 regional consultation and socialization workshops with the aim of hearing the perspectives and opinions of the different social sectors. In total, 800 participants joined the workshops, including representatives from the government, civil society, private sector, as well as leaders from indigenous communities and towns. Once the workshops were implemented, inputs were collected for the elaboration of the PNA?s first draft. This draft was reviewed by a technical team comprised by members of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), ASONOG representatives, DNCC members, and technical consultants. Similarly, for the revision of the first version of the PNA, experts from different fields -including: human rights, gender, food sovereignty, agriculture, among others- were invited to participate.
