LDCs and SIDS are expecting enhanced attention to and support for adaptation and resilience, including evidence that developed countries are making good faith efforts to maintain a credible pathway to the 1.5°C goal. COVID-19 also means there will be an even greater need for support and solidarity to developing countries and the resilience of their economies, which are under strain due to drops in tourism and debt distress.
