气候变化适应（CCA）的监测和评估（M&E）提出了各种棘手的方法学挑战。单独来看，没有一个是共同国家评估所独有的，但合在一起，它们代表了从业者和决策者面临的一个非常独特的难题。进一步增加这种复杂性的是，气候变化可能是全球性的，但其影响，以及我们如何通过适应努力应对这些影响，跨越规模，部门和干预水平。
随着对气候适应的投资增加，各组织正在努力衡量、评估和理解一系列适应举措，并从中汲取经验教训，为政策和实践提供信息。这期杂志介绍了许多当代最重要的共同国家评估项目评估研究计划的发现。这些章节代表了CCA M&E研究在这一新兴和重要领域的最连贯和最新的集合，由其许多领先的专家撰写。它充满了在制定一致的方法学挑战的反应的例子和见解，将感兴趣的M&E学者和从业者在全球范围内。
Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of climate change adaptation (CCA) poses an assortment of thorny methodological challenges. Individually, none are unique to CCA, but together they represent a very distinctive conundrum facing practitioners and policy makers. Adding to this complexity further, climate change may be global in nature but its impacts, and how we respond to them through adaptation efforts, cut across scales, sectors, and levels of intervention.
As investments in climate adaptation increase, organizations are seeking to measure, assess and understand an array of adaptation initiatives, and derive learnings to inform policy and praxis. This issue presents findings from many of the most important contemporary CCA program evaluation research initiatives. The chapters represent the most coherent and current collection of CCA M&E research in this emerging and important field, written by many of its leading experts. Filled with examples and insights in formulating coherent responses to methodological challenges, it will be of interest to M&E scholars and practitioners globally.
