USAID climate change adaptation plan for 2014
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) prepared this Climate Change Adaptation Plan for 2014 in accordance with Executive Order (E.O.) 13514 "Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance." The Plan assesses climate change risks, vulnerabilities, and opportunities for USAID's mission, programs, and operations; discusses USAID's current and past activities to address those issues; and identifies agency-level actions to understand and address internal climate change vulnerability. This Plan is not meant to inform adaptation programming in USAID's partner countries; that is instead guided by the USAID Climate Change and Development Strategy, which sets out principles, objectives and priorities for USAID climate change assistance with the aim of helping countries and communities prepare
for and adapt to changes in climate. Similarly, while climate change mitigation is a vital part of any strategy to deal with climate change, it is not considered in this document, since it is comprehensively addressed in both the USAID Climate Change and Development Strategy and the Agency Sustainability Plan.
