Finally, grounded in the AR6 goal to expand the solution space, this chapter advances the understanding of adaptation in the water sector since AR5 by deploying a meta-analysis of adaptation measures. The meta-analysis focuses on both current adaptation responses  and future projected adaptation responses, which have been modelled . The meta-review assesses the outcomes of current adaptation responses and effectiveness of future projected adaptations in reducing climate and associated risks. Studies derived from the Global Adaptation Mapping Initiative  database   were coded systematically following a meta-review protocol developed specifically for this assessment . A similar meta-review protocol was also developed to assess effectiveness of adaptations to reduce projected climate risks .
