Flowing Together: Developing climate-rooted adaptation targets for water

The first part of the session will dissect existing global targets and frameworks (e.g. the Sendai Framework, the Global Biodiversity Framework, SDG 6.1 and 6.2) and identify the gaps. The second part of the session will look more deeply at the GGA process itself, including insights from involved national policymakers, to better understand the issues at play when global targets are being proposed.
