Mainstreaming and policy coherence is one of the most proposed strategies for dealing with adaptation and mitigation as a coherent approach, in the context of good governance. Politics, power and interests influence the prospects of achieving integrated climate policy and development goals in practice . Institutional incoherence has led to inefficiency and ineffectiveness . To achieve more coherent institutions and synergies, four major enabling conditions have been identified:  planned and/ or existing national laws, policies and strategies,  existing and planned financial means and measures,  institutional arrangements in the country with specific reference to climate change issues and  planned and/or existing programmes and initiatives in the country .
