The purpose of this institutional analysis of the Agence de l’Environnement et du Institutional Analysis of l’Agence de l’Environnement et du Développement Durable (AEDD) and l’Agence Nationale de la Météorologie (Mali-Météo), carried out in close collaboration with USAID/Mali, is to identify the capacity and needs of these two institutions and to provide specific recommendations to strengthen these two agency’s responses to climate change. The ARCC Mali Institutional Assessment of the AEDD and Mali-Météo was structured around a field visit to Mali from January 11-24, 2014. USAID requested that the National Adaptive Capacity Framework (NAC), designed by the World Resources Institute, and the USAID Project Design Sustainability Analysis Tool structure the key issues and questions for this assessment.
