Approaches to address loss and damage associated with climate change impacts in developing
countries that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change
|

As part of the Cancun Adaptation Framework, Parties initiated consideration on approaches to address
loss and damage associated with climate change impacts in developing countries that are particularly
vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change.
Following two years of deliberations on this issue, COP19 (November 2013) established the Warsaw
International Mechanism for Loss and Damage associated with Climate Change Impacts, as the main
vehicle under the Convention to promote the implementation of approaches to address loss and damage
in a comprehensive, integrated and coherent manner. (See decision
2/CP.19 for the details.)
