  2. What challenges and needs should be accounted for when considering approaches to reviewing overall progress towards the global goal on adaptation? How might these challenges be overcome?
  3. Are there any other approaches, ideas, factors, etc., that the Adaptation Committee should consider as it moves forward in its work on reviewing overall progress towards the global goal on adaptation?
