Traction provides a framework that supports a range of users to advance adaptation action.

The Traction framework is based on a shared understanding of what enables adaptation action at a range of scales: national, regional and local. It provides a valuable tool for government and non-governmental organisations working on climate action to reflect on adaptation progress that has been made, as a stocktake, and to plan ahead to achieve greater impact. It also provides a means of systematically sharing knowledge across locations and nations, including between the Global North and Global South to increase opportunity for shared learning.
