As the gap between adaptation needs and available funding widens, the private sector is becoming increasingly important in adaptation finance and investments. The 2026 Adaptation Accelerator Hub (AAH) webinar series focuses on private sector engagement. By highlighting technical support provided by the AAH, the series will demonstrate how collaboration between policymakers, financiers, and enterprises can bridge the divide between national adaptation priorities and private investment.
The webinar, Unlocking Private Capital for Adaptation, conducted on April 29 2026, highlighted adaptation as a strategic, profitable business opportunity and the role of the private sector from peripheral financiers to core drivers of resilience. It also looked at how the AAH helps translate national priorities (NDCs/NAPs) into bankable, and implementation-ready investment plans by using country examples. Click here for more information.
