Climate Resilience and Adaptation Financing Taxonomy (CRAFT)

This dataset provides the first comprehensive taxonomy for assessing the climate change adaptation and resilience (A&R) characteristics of fiscal spending. We score each policy type for its potential impact on 'direct' and 'indirect' climate A&R. 'Direct' indicates explicit efforts to adapt to actual or expected climate effects. 'Indirect' indicates efforts that increase resilience or reduce vulnerability to climate effects, whether or not this outcome was intended to directly address climate risks. The policy types are derived from the Global Recovery Observatory, developed by the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment at the University of Oxford: https://figshare.com/s/ddb3c8e7a9e7ae7bd3ab Further details are available in a forthcoming research paper.
