Hydro-Economic Model Webinar
A simple water model is developed to illustrate the importance of water allocation as an adaptation to climate change. There are two users in this model: farmers and households.

This is captured in this model by the relatively steep demand given to households.

An NCF is a country-driven mechanism that supports the collection, blending, coordination of, and accounting for climate finance at the national level. This guidebook presents a process for designing and establishing an NCF and provides a simple, robust and transparent method for meaningful stakeholder engagement. In this way, countries are better equipped to manage climate finance and achieve results.
