Integrated Strategies for DRM and Climate Change by 2015 Presented by Kirstie Meheux Disaster Reduction Programme
Why an integrated strategy? Shared risk reduction focus PICs are integrating national DRM and CCA strategies Climate Change Adaptation Disaster Risk Management Anticipatory Crop diversification Insurance House design Policy frameworks Rainwater harvesting Disaster Risk Reduction Building codes Irrigation Early warning systems Poverty reduction strategies Efficient use of capacity and resources Reactive crop development Relocation reconstruction Disaster Management Emergency coordination Search & Rescue Damage assessment Rehabilitation/ reconstruction Standard operating procedures and Plans Improve coordination Existing frameworks end 2015
Why an integrated strategy? Support from regional and national consultations EU Climate Change Dialogue, Feb 2011 14thRegional Met Service Directors, August 2011 SPC CRGA, November 2011 PIC JNAP initiatives, 2010 and ongoing Pacific Climate Change Roundtable, March 2011 SPREP Governing Council, September 2011 Regional launch of WB Policy & Practice Note for Climate and Disaster Resilient Development, June 2012 2011 2013 National Progress Reviews for the HFA and Pac DRR&DM framework, June September 2012 3rdSession of the Pacific Platform for DRM, August 2011 SOPAC Division Meeting, October 2011

Regional Policy Frameworks Pacific Disaster Risk Reduction and Disaster Management Framework for Action 2005-2015 Supports an all hazards and integrated approach to the mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction and disaster management Advocates DRM as a sustainable development issue, requiring a whole of country approach and partnership at all levels of decision-making Six Themes with suggested Regional and National activities www.pacificdisaster.net/pdnadmin/data/original/mr0613.pdf
Regional Policy Frameworks Pacific Islands Framework for Action on Climate Change 2006-2015 raises awareness of Pacific climate change issues guides design and implementation of national and regional climate change measures guides development of national and regional sustainable development strategies, sector policies, climate change-specific policies framework to enable measurement of progress of climate change action in the region 6 Themes with respective outcomes, outputs/indicators www.sprep.org/attachments/Publications/PIFACC-ref.pdf
Theme 1: Governance organisational, institutional, policy and decision-making frameworks Theme 1: Implementing adaptation measures Theme 2: Knowledge, information, public awareness and education Theme 2: Governance and decision making Theme 3: Analysis and evaluation of hazards, vulnerabilities and elements at risk Theme 3: Improve understanding of climate change Theme 4: Education Training and Awareness Theme 4: Planning for effective preparedness, response and recovery Theme 5: Mitigation of global greenhouse emissions Theme 5: Effective, integrated and people- focused early warning systems Theme 6: Partnership and cooperation Theme 6: Reduction of underlying risk factors
National Integration Integrated approaches to planning e.g. Joint National Action Plans for DRM and CC (JNAP), in Tonga, Cook Islands, Tuvalu, Niue etc. Integrated governance e.g. Vanuatu s National Advisory Board for CC and DRM
Roadmap to integration 1. On going implementation of current DRM, CC activities 2011-15 JNAP development/implementation DRM and CC programmes/projects e.g.PACC, GCCA, CCCPIR, PDRM(T)P, PCRAFI, EDF 9 ACP-EU (B and C Envelopes) and others EDF10 ACP-EU NDF Country Implementation Plan consultations (2013) Joint Pacific DRM Platform and Climate Change Roundtable (July 2013) National progress reviews of HFA and RFA (2014)
Roadmap to integration 2. Development of integrated strategy Recruitment of Roadmap Advisor (2012) Steering Committee appointed (2012) Dedicated consultations at different levels (Ongoing) Regional progress report for existing DRM and CC frameworks Case studies for DRM and CC in the Pacific Strategy Formulation (including Implementation and M&E arrangements) (2013 2014) 3. Endorsement by Leaders in 2014/2015 4. Implementation from 2015/2016
Input from Fisheries and Aquaculture How would your interests be best served by an integrated regional strategy for DRM and CC? What do you want to get out of it? What do you feel the strategy should look like? Do you have any views on implementation arrangements? How best can the new strategy be supported at regional and national levels? How can Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting be addressed?
