For scientists and researchers, the most commonly reported form of involvement in development and implementation of adaptation policies has been consultation. In the implementation stage, 12 out of 18 countries reported consultation as one of the forms of involvement used with scientific community stakeholders. The scientific community has also been an important provider of information and at least half of the counties have reported that information has been actively gathered from the research community in all stages of the policy process.
