- analyze and document the results and lessons learned from the use of the LDC Fund in financing and promoting climate change adaptation in development programmes in LDCs
- to provide recommendations regarding the future role of the LDC Fund and the implementation of the National Adaptation Plans of Action (NAPAs).
