Registry of Adaptation Practitioners |
Application Instructions
Thank you for your interest in applying to the Registry of Adaptation Practitioners!
The Registry highlights organizations that provide expertise and guidance in climate adaptation and resilience to support others (e.g., local governments, community-based organizations) with their adaptation projects and programs. The Registry is designed to facilitate connections between organizations that provide adaptation expertise ("adaptation practitioners") and those seeking support and expertise ("communities").
Who Should Apply: Applications to the Registry should be on behalf of an organization, with the express consent of that organization. Please note that here we are using the term organizations to apply to any entity that provides adaptation or resilience services to others, which may include governments, non-profit organizations, academic institutions, and sole proprietors, among others. Climate adaptation or resilience teams or divisions within a larger organization should apply on behalf of that specific team rather than for the organization as a whole. Similarly, a team based in a regional or state office within a larger organization should apply on behalf of the team in that location.
Notes on the Application: The application questions are designed to elicit the information that the Registry team needs to evaluate the organization's adaptation expertise and understanding of best practices in the field. Please provide as much information as possible on the online application, using the recommended word count as a guide to the level of detail we will require to evaluate your application. If your organization is accepted to the Registry, your application answers will also be used to populate your organization's public profile that will be visible to those seeking your services, so ensure that your application answers reflect the level of professionalism and expertise that you want to portray to the wider adaptation community.
If you would like to preview the application or draft your answers offline and copy them into the application later, you can download the questions here.
Any questions about eligibility or the application process can be sent to info@adaptationregistry.org.
