    Local adaptation is a mechanism in evolutionary biology whereby a population of organisms evolves to be more well-suited to its local environment than other members of the same species that live elsewhere. Local adaptation requires that different populations of the same species experience different natural selection.For example, if a species lives across a wide range of temperatures ...
  2. The Global Commission on Adaptation developed a set of principles, based on over a year of consultations, to strengthen locally led adaptation. As of November 2022, over 100 organizations have joined us to endorse these principles, committing to make changes and strengthening existing efforts to meet this urgent adaptation agenda.
  3. As funders and national governments invest in building resilience to climate impacts, many are recognizing the value of locally led adaptation (LLA) to manage climate risks faced by local communities and Indigenous peoples. As of May 2022, more than 70 organizations and governments had endorsed eight Principles for Locally Led Adaptation.

    Local adaptation (Williams 2018) is pervasive across ecological systems and is a key evolutionary process that has generated much of the world's biodiversity.Local adaptation is the process by which populations have traits that confer higher survival and reproduction in the local environment than they would elsewhere because of the spatial match between adaptive genetic variation and ...

    The importance of locally led adaptation action was highlighted in the Global Commission on Adaptation's 2019 flagship report Adapt Now, which built on a decade of foundational work carried out by IIED with SDI, Huairou Commission, International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) and others regarding financing that can tackle ...
  6. Sep 24, 2024"Adapt Now", the 2019 flagship report of the Global Commission on Adaptation set the stage for increased political momentum around the concept of locally led adaptation (LLA) and the development of eight principles for LLA by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) and the World Resources Institute (WRI). Funding ...
  7. Oct 21, 2024Active projects. Generating ambition for locally led adaptation: this government of the Netherlands-funded project is enabling IIED and its partners to implement a long-term strategy for LLA by building institutional capabilities, fostering partnerships and enhancing accountability to address climate, nature and inequality challenges.. Scoring adaptation finance for locally led adaptation: a ...
  8. Projects to adapt to the impacts of climate change, however, are rarely locally led. Local people and organizations who are most directly affected by — and often disproportionately vulnerable to — the impacts of climate change are often left out of critical decision-making processes to address them, such as the design of adaptation programs ...
  9. Even when the funding does reach local actors, it may not be adapted to local priorities. Whether local actors are in leadership roles — which is strongly connected to funding allocation — is also a critical factor in deciding whether a project is locally led. The leadership and agency of local actors at various stages is instrumental to ...

    Jun 7, 2023Locally led adaptation (LLA) has recently gained importance against top-down planning practices that often exclude the lived realities and priorities of local communities and create injustices at the local level. The promise of LLA is that adaptation would be defined, prioritised, designed, monitored, and evaluated by local communities themselves, enabling a shift in power to local ...

  1. Local adaptation

    Local adaptation is a mechanism in evolutionary biology whereby a population of organisms evolves to be more well-suited to its local environment than other members of the same species that live elsewhere. Local adaptation requires that different populations of the same species experience different natural selection. For example, if a species lives across a wide range of temperatures, populations from warm areas may have better heat tolerance than populations of the same species that live in the cold part of its geographic range.
