This paper identifies lessons from the Marketplace and assesses their implications for adaptation support. The findings are based on: statistical tabulation of all proposals; in-depth qualitative and quantitative analysis of the 346 semi-finalists; and interviews with finalists and assessors. Proposals were fuelled by deep concerns that ongoing climate change and its impacts undermine development and exacerbate poverty, migration and food insecurity. Proposals addressed both local poverty and climate change challenges, and offered a wide range of approaches to render local development more resilient to current climate variability. Therefore, support to community-based adaptation should: exploit its strong local grounding and synergies with development; help connect local initiatives to higher levels; and use complementary approaches to address policy issues.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABRASIONADAPTATION ACTIONADAPTATION EFFORTSADAPTATION FUNDINGADAPTATION INTERVENTIONSADAPTATION MEASURESADAPTATION PLANNINGADAPTATION PLANSADAPTATION POTENTIALADAPTATION PRIORITIESADAPTATION PROJECTSADAPTATION PROPOSALSADAPTATION PURPOSESADAPTATION RESPONSEADAPTATION STRATEGIESADAPTATION SUPPORTADAPTATION TO CLIMATEADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGEADAPTINGADAPTIVE CAPACITYADVERSE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGEAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTANTHROPOGENIC CLIMATE CHANGEBIODIVERSITYBIODIVERSITY CONSERVATIONBIODIVERSITY PROTECTIONCAPACITY BUILDINGCIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONSCLIMATECLIMATE ADAPTATIONCLIMATE ADAPTATION STRATEGYCLIMATE CHANGECLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONCLIMATE CHANGE CHALLENGESCLIMATE CHANGE EDUCATIONCLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTSCLIMATE CHANGE RISKCLIMATE CONDITIONSCLIMATE DATACLIMATE EXTREMESCLIMATE INFORMATIONCLIMATE MODELSCLIMATE PATTERNSCLIMATE PROJECTIONSCLIMATE REFUGEESCLIMATE RISKCLIMATE RISK MANAGEMENTCLIMATE SCIENCECLIMATE TRENDSCLIMATE UNCERTAINTYCLIMATE VARIABILITYCLIMATE-PROOFCLIMATE-RELATED DISASTERSCLIMATE-RELATED RISKSCLIMATESCLIMATIC EXTREMESCLIMATIC RISKCOLD TEMPERATURESCOPE WITH CLIMATE CHANGECOUNTRY ADAPTATIONCYCLONESDAMAGESDEFORESTATIONDESALINATIONDESALINATION PLANTSDESERTIFICATIONDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVESDISASTER MANAGEMENTDISASTER PREPAREDNESSDISASTER RISKDISASTER RISK MANAGEMENTDISASTER RISK REDUCTIONDROUGHTDRY SEASONECOLOGICAL SYSTEMSECONOMIC IMPACTECOSYSTEMELDERLYELECTRICITYENERGY PRODUCTIONENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITSENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATIONEXCESSIVE RAINFALLEXTREME CLIMATE EVENTSEXTREME EVENTSEXTREME HEATEXTREME TEMPERATURESEXTREME WEATHEREXTREME WEATHER EVENTSFEASIBILITYFINANCIAL RESOURCESFIRE MANAGEMENTFLOODFLOOD MANAGEMENTFLOODINGFOOD INSECURITYFORESTFOREST AREASFOREST FIRESFOREST RESOURCESFORESTRYFORESTSFREEZEFRESH WATERGENDER ISSUESGLACIER MELTGLACIER MELTINGGLACIERSGLOBAL ENVIRONMENTGLOBAL ENVIRONMENT FACILITYGLOBAL WARMINGGOALS OF ADAPTATIONGREENHOUSEGREENHOUSE GASGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSION REDUCTIONSGREENHOUSE GASESHAILHEAT WAVESHOUSEHOLD ENERGYHURRICANESIMPACT OF CLIMATEIMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGEIMPLEMENT ADAPTATIONIMPLEMENTATION CAPACITYIMPLICATIONS FOR ADAPTATIONIMPLICATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENTINCOMEINDIGENOUS PEOPLESINTERNATIONAL COMMUNITYLAKESLAND MANAGEMENTLAND USELOCAL DEVELOPMENTLOCAL KNOWLEDGE OF CLIMATELONG-TERM ADAPTATIONMALADAPTATIONMICRO-INSURANCEMIGRATIONMITIGATIONNATIONAL ADAPTATIONNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL LEVELNATIONAL STRATEGIESNATURAL DISASTERNATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENTNATURAL RESOURCESNUTRITIONORGANIC MATTERPOLICY MAKERSPOPULATION GROWTHPRECIPITATIONQUANTITATIVE ANALYSISRAINRAINFALLRAINFALL PATTERNSRAINWATERRAINWATER HARVESTINGREGIONAL CLIMATERESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGERESPONSE TO CLIMATE CHANGERISKS FROM CLIMATE CHANGERURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTSCENARIOSSEASONSEAWATERSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIOECONOMIC IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGESODASTORM SURGESSTORMSSUCCESSFUL ADAPTATIONSURFACE WATERSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE FORESTSUSTAINABLE FOREST MANAGEMENTSUSTAINABLE RESOURCE MANAGEMENTTEMPERATURETROPICAL STORMSTYPHOONSVARIABILITY IN TEMPERATUREVARIABILITY OF CLIMATEVEGETATIVE COVERVULNERABILITYVULNERABLE GROUPSWATER QUALITYWATER SALINITYWEATHER EXTREMESWEATHER PATTERNSWorking PaperWorld Bank10.1596/27468
