    Abstract This short article introduces the national adaptation planning process within the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), with a close-up look at the integration of human (im)mobility in the context of climate change into National Adaptation Plans (NAPs). The piece identifies major gaps in addressing human (im)mobility in adaptation planning and suggests potential measures to address the identified gaps. Human (im)mobility in this context includes migration, displacement, planned relocation, and immobility (voluntary and involuntary). The research data presented herein updates the findings of a previous study, Addressing Climate-Related Human Mobility through NDCs and NAPs, State of Play, Good Practices and Way Forward, by Mombauer, Link, and van der Geest (Mombauer et al., 2023). This update focuses exclusively on NAPs, not Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). At the time of the original study, a total of 40 NAPs had been completed and submitted. When the research for this update was completed (February 2024), 53 countries had completed and submitted their NAPs.
