The Community Resilience Partnership Program (CRPP) supports countries and communities in the Asia and Pacific region to scale up investments in climate adaptation that explicitly target the nexus of climate change, poverty, and gender. The CRPP has a dedicated gender window with funds earmarked specifically for supporting women-focused investments.

The annual CRPP Partnership Forum brings together community leaders, government officials, development partners, think tanks, the private sector, financial institutions, and global climate funds to discuss the role that poverty reduction policies and programs can play in building climate resilience.

The CRPP Partnership Forum 2026 will discuss how, in the context of increasing climate risks, investments in food security, nutrition, health, social protection, and livelihoods can be designed and delivered in ways that engage communities, address differentiated needs of women, and build greater climate resilience at the local level. Discussions will link to and build on CRPP’s previous partnership forums in 2023 (exploring themes of adaptive social protection and climate-resilient agriculture), 2024 (resilience through decentralization systems and climate-resilient skills development), and 2025 (resilience through urban poverty reduction and financial inclusion).

The CRPP is operationalized through the Community Resilience Financing Partnership Facility (CRFPF) and includes a multi-donor trust fund administered by ADB and supported by the French Development Agency, Green Climate Fund, Nordic Development Fund, and the Government of the United Kingdom.
