In 2025, the Global Center on Adaptation (GCA) made significant progress in promoting climate-resilient infrastructure design, elevating local leadership, and engaging youth in climate adaptation action globally. The GCA focused on scaling political momentum, finance, and practical solutions to build resilient economies, with a particular emphasis on food security and rural well-being. The year ended with political momentum, financial commitments, and technical innovations to expand adaptation solutions, setting the stage for accelerated implementation in 2026. The focus for the future is to support resilient food systems, urban infrastructure, and bring adaptation to every community in need, emphasizing that resilience is a choice built day by day, investment by investment, and community by community.
