AWGLCA: Elements of the outcome - note by the Chair
This paper is a note on possible elements of the outcome of the thirteenth session of the Ad Hoc Working Group on Long-term Cooperative Action under the Convention (AWG-LCA) prepared by the Chair of the AWG-LCA, to be presented for adoption to the Conference of the Parties in Cancun. It reflects the effort by the Chair, in consultation with facilitators, to capture progress made during the first week of the thirteenth session of the AWG-LCA. It invites all Parties to enhance action on adaptation by "enhancing climate change related disaster risk reduction strategies, taking into consideration the Hyogo Framework for Action where appropriate, early warning systems, risk assessment and management, and sharing and transfer mechanisms such as insurance, at local, national, subregional and regional levels, as appropriate."
