Climate
Climate work spans mitigation, adaptation, and resilience simultaneously — institutions rarely have governance built for all three at once.
Overview
Climate-focused institutions and programmes work across mitigation, adaptation, and resilience simultaneously, often with governance structures designed around only one of the three. Advice360's sector-level climate work addresses the coordination needed across all three dimensions at once.
Purpose
To support climate-focused institutions, funds, and programmes in building governance structures capable of managing mitigation, adaptation, and resilience work as an integrated portfolio rather than three separate initiatives.
Strategic Context
Climate finance and programming increasingly requires institutions to demonstrate integrated impact across mitigation, adaptation, and resilience simultaneously, while governance and monitoring structures were frequently designed around a single dimension.
Institutional Perspective
Advice360's climate sector work builds directly on its Climate Adaptation capability but extends further into institutional governance for climate finance, mitigation programming, and integrated resilience planning as a single coordinated portfolio.
Sector Challenges
Governance structures designed around a single climate dimension (mitigation, adaptation, or resilience) rather than all three
Climate finance accountability requirements that vary across funding sources
Monitoring and evaluation frameworks that don't capture integrated cross-dimensional impact
Coordination gaps between climate-focused institutions and the broader development or government institutions they operate alongside
