Rob D. van den Berg, Director of the Global Environment Facility Independent Evaluation Office, delivered the opening remarks via a live video feed from Washington DC. Talking about climate adaptation, he said that"the difficulties are actually in determining what actually would constitute successful adaptation". This is central to the role of the GEF Independent Evaluation Office as "the GEF is the biggest funder of adaptation activities in developing countries".
