CBA Inception Workshop CBA will have a three-level structure Each national CBA programme will contribute to achieving the three outcomes of the CBA project The CBA CPS (CCPS) will guide this process in each country Outcome 1 of the CBA Objective of the CPS1 Project 1 under CPS1 Project 2 under CPS1 … Goal of the CBA Objective of the CBA Outcome 2 of the CBA Objective of the CPS2 Project x under CPS1 ……. Outcome 3 of the CBA Objective of the CPS10 ……… etc., for other CPS 1 1 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

In practice, they should: •be closely tied to other elements of the CCPS •provide benchmarks against which to evaluate progress •be consistent with UNDP-GEF’s M&E framework for adaptation 5 5 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

Sectoral focus should be based on: •National Adaptation Priorities –as expressed in the National Communications to the UNFCCC, NAPA, other docs •Fit with the CBA mechanism –Potential to deliver adaptation impacts through community projects –Potential for GEB •Consultations with relevant stakeholders –Aligning CBA with current adaptation priorities –Ensuring stakeholder participation in the projects 7 7 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

This should be based on assessments in: –National Communications to the UNFCCC –NAPAs –IPCC 4th Assessment Report –Other expert literature Vulnerability assessments should have an ecosystem focus: –Focusing on the natural resources that communities rely on for: • • • • Clean water Agriculture Storm protection Etc 9 9 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

What are the climate change threats to the target sector? Baseline Pressures Climate Change Pressures •Landlessness, insecure •Increasing temperature (impacts on tenure •Soil degradation crop phenology, water stress) •Increasing erosion (drought/flood) •Inequitable access to water resources •Cyclical drought •Reduced water quality (drought/flood) •Changing seasonal water distribution •Salinization •Cyclones •Landslides •Lack of early warning •Intensifying cyclones •Severe flood/drought •Novel disasters systems 1212 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

One is preferable in order to maximize lesson-learning. • The strategy should describe both how individual projects might generate GEB, and how the portfolio as a whole with lead to GEB (generally through policy impact) • GEB generated through CBA projects must be resilient in the face of climate change (ie: climate change impacts should not threaten to undo CBA project outcomes) 1414 CBA Inception Workshop Resilience of GEB in the face of climate change The GEF SPA is intended to build resilience in the focal areas in which the GEF works –GEB generated through co-financing –SPA funds support the “climate-proofing” of GEB CBA projects must go over and above focal area projects, to ensure that GEB are resilient in the face of climate change Examples: Focal Area Projects LD: promote agroforesty to mitigate land degradation BD: protect a given species through community-based habitat management SPA Projects LD: work with communities to change maladapted agroforestry practices that will become untenable in the face of climate change BD: ensure that species protection takes CC into account, establish migration corridors as species move in response to changing habitats 1515 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

These could potentially include: •Focus on specific gender, ethnic, livelihood or social groups •Prioritization of certain types of interventions •Use of local ecological knowledge 1919 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

It will describe how the other elements of the proposal (geographic focus, focal area strategy, baselineadditionality reasoning) might manifest into community-driven projects. This description will be for indicative purposes only -- as with regular SGP project, proposals will be driven by NGOs/CBOs. Potential Examples: •Community-based agroforestry in a region vulnerable to climate-induced soil degradation •Mangrove management for coastal defenses •Etc 2121 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

This should be tailored to fit country-level circumstances. It could include: –Participation of key policymakers in the NCC –Organized site visits to successful projects –Development of reports and policy briefs –Development of new practices and promotion of their upscaling through informal, private sector, or governmental channels 2424 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

For SGP countries, the NCC will be composed of the existing NSC, with one or more additional members, introduced to add expertise in climate change adaptation. Inclusion of policymakers in sectors prioritized by the CCPS, and representatives from appropriate agencies encouraged. For non-SGP countries, the NCC will be a new body, comprised of key stakeholders in fields related to CBA. 2626 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

The CCPS should provide a short list of potentially eligible NGOs/CBOs from whom proposals will be sought, as well as criteria and strategies for engaging new NGOs. 2828 CBA Inception Workshop The CCPS will provide a framework in which CBA activities can be supported Information required within the CCPS: 1.

Capacity building could take the form of training sessions for proponents, or any other form – the key is to ensure understanding of the CBA’s focus and requirements, facilitating good proposals. 3030
