Albania's National Adaptation Plan – Financing Strategy (2026–2036)

January 12, 2026

The NAP Financing Strategy provides a roadmap to secure sufficient and sustainable resources for Albania’s 66 adaptation measures, with a total financing need equivalent to 2.7% of 2025 GDP. Funding is front-loaded in the early years and relies on concessional finance, phased budget allocations, and integration into national investment frameworks. The strategy focuses on estimating needs, diversifying funding sources, aligning finance with national systems, enhancing coordination, and ensuring long-term sustainability. Despite government and partner commitments, a 93% financing gap remains, highlighting the urgency of mobilizing resources from domestic, international, and private actors to move from planning to action and strengthen Albania’s climate resilience.
