The role of awareness of the need for adaptation in determining the willingness to develop policies and to take adaptation action at the national level can be explored by examining the responses to this question and the responses to two other questions within the survey. The first is exploring the responses to this question and those to the whether the public awareness of adaptation as a response has increased (Table 2.1). Ten of the 13 countries that ranked willingness to develop policies and to take adaptation action at the national level as high or very high also responded that public awareness as a response had increased (compared with three of 13 that responded that they neither agreed nor disagreed that that public awareness had increased). Similarly, those countries that ranked willingness to develop policies and to take adaptation action at the national level as medium (14 countries) more (nine countries) agreed with the statement that public awareness of adaptation as a response has increased than neither agreed or disagreed with this statement (five countries).
