This National Adaptation Plan (NAP) progress report presents the progress that Saint Lucia has made on adaptation action since the launch of the country’s NAP (2018–2028). It highlights the nexus between planned and implemented adaptation actions in Saint Lucia under its NAP and the commitments outlined in its recently updated nationally determined contribution. The findings of this progress report have been used to inform Saint Lucia’s Adaptation Communication (AdCom), with the nationally determined contribution and the AdCom feeding into collective reporting for the 2023 Global Stocktake.

Saint Lucia’s NAP has been defined as a 10-year process (2018–2028), consisting of priority cross-sectoral and sectoral adaptation measures for eight key sectors and areas, as well as a section on the “limits to adaptation.” The ultimate goal of the NAP is to strengthen Saint Lucia’s resilience to climate change and to support the implementation of the country’s Climate Change Adaptation Policy (CCAP). The NAP document is complemented by eight Sectoral Adaptation Strategies and Action Plans (SASAPs) that cover the country’s priority sectors and thematic areas, alongside several other strategies and policies for adaptation financing, action, and communications. The process has benefited from the input of multiple stakeholders, including representatives from the public sector, statutory bodies, academia, the private sector, civil society organisations and bodies, as well as international partners. This process has also involved other state and non‐state actors, such as media personnel, who play an important role in helping efforts to positively influence thinking on adaptation, develop strong adaptation outcomes, change behaviour, and instigate action across the populace, at all levels.
