Type of Readi- o Strategic frameworks, including the preparation of country programmes ness support o Support for accreditation and accredited direct access entities sought ⌧ Adaptation Planning Costa Rica has high exposure to extreme hydro-meteorological conditions and water scarcity due to its location in the Central American Isthmus. The country has made progress in the last decade in climate change adaptation planning at the national level. These advances include the National Climate Change Strategy (2009) and its corresponding Action Plan (2012), as well as sectoral vulnerability assessments, which encompass coastal zones, water resources, agriculture and food security, infrastructure, energy, and biodiversity. Although many of these assessments identify pri- orities for adaptation, only the biodiversity sector has developed a planning process to address this objective. The country is currently finishing its National Adaptation Strategy and National Ad- aptation Plan (NAP), as part of its commitments established in the Nationally Determined Prelimi- nary Contribution (2015). The NAP will focus on six priority sectors: infrastructure, primary produc- 7. Brief summary of tive sector, water resources, tourism, health, and biodiversity. Due to country's achievements in the request mitigation, adaptation instruments will consider creating synergies between both in the context of the so-called "climatic action." Despite this progress, as detailed in section 3, Costa Rica urgently need to strengthen planning frameworks and processes at sub-national levels. Current sub-national plans define development goals and regulate productive activities, but do not identify and prioritize concrete adaptation measures and do not address conflicts between adaptation needs of different sectors (e.g., com- petition for water use). The strengthening of the planning frameworks must engage two sub-na- tional and complementary levels: the cantons (municipalities) or basic government units, and the socio-economic regions (comprised by a sets of cantons, see map in annex 3) that provide the framework for development planning. In a country that still has very centralized policy-making, READINESS AND PREPARATORY SUPPORT PROPOSAL TEMPLATE PAGE 4 OF 50 | Ver. 15 June 2017 planning, and budget allocation, the regional-level approach is a necessary bridge between the central government mandates and municipal level implementation. Their respective administrative units are: • Municipal governments (canton level) that are charged with the channeling and regulation of public and sectoral investments and the coordination of risk management actions. Cantonal level has budget. However, in spite of these responsibilities, in practice the municipal government capacities are insufficient to address these tasks properly. • Regional Development Councils (for socioeconomic regions) that link cantonal and national levels and have strong convening power. Even though these councils do not have an execu- tive role, therefore, they lack budget, they promote synergies and identify possible trade-offs and conflicts between sectors and support the definition of central government investments at the local level. The proposed GCF project aims to build sustainable country capacity in identifying, prioritizing, planning and implementing measures that address a diversity of local adaptation needs. The ulti- mate objective of the project is to reduce country´s vulnerability to the impacts of climate change and variability, by building adaptive capacity and resilience through the integration of adaptation into regional and municipal planning, including government entities, the private sector, and civil society.

Adapting the capitals framework approach, we compare two neighboring cantons, Hojancha and Nicoya, both with similar high amount of resources endowment but with different pattern of development. We found different integration levels of all capitals by social actors in both cantons, with different outcomes in natural resources conservation, ecosystem services provision and social welfare. We conclude that local development is determined not only by the availability of the natural resource endowment but also by a good articulation amongst human, social, political and cultural capitals. The formulation of a locally shared and integral long term view of the territorial development is a
