Supported by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), CBIT has approved three capacity-building projects in Costa Rica, Kenya and South Africa as of November 2016 (GEF, 2016). Although none of the projects approved to date are focused on adaptation, the successful deployment of the CBIT could eventually contribute to building adaptation monitoring and evaluation systems at the national level, given many Parties expressed their aim to do so in their NDCs. It took nearly six years and consultations with 450 people from governmental departments, sectoral agencies at Federal and Lander level and from scientific and private institutions to agree on the final 102 indicators (German Federal Environment Agency, 2015). The TAMD framework, aiming to help governments “to demonstrate if climate finance has been well spent and that the climate vulnerability of communities has been reduced” (Craft and Fischer, 2016) was formally launched in 2015. Global projects on behalf of BMZ were conducted in Cambodia (in collaboration with IIED), Bolivia (at the state level only), Mexico, Morocco, Mozambique, Togo and South Africa.
