This study describes the areas of focus for the ADB Pacific Department's operations, identifies key gaps between country and ADB actions, as well as opportunities for scaling up ADB's assistance related to mitigation, adaptation and associated crosscutting needs. The CCIP will evolve through periodic updates to effectively guide ongoing and future programs, technical assistance, and project designs. Going forward, specific climate change interventions will continue to be incorporated into the Country Partnership Strategy and Country Operations Business Plan for each Pacific Developing Member Countries and into the Regional Cooperation Strategy/Regional Operations Business Plan for the Pacific region as a whole.
