Climate Change Adaptation. Provision of support to develop and implement drought adaptation mechanisms and institutional models, at the state, district and local level, for a more effective delivery of assistance to drought-affected communities through, inter alia, improved coordination and leveraging of various programs currently delivered by Rajasthan. Part E: Project Implementation Support Provision of support to:
Climate Change Adaptation. CRC led the design and writing of the USAID publication Adapting to Coastal Climate Change: A Guidebook for Development Planners to help decision-makers, policy- makers and practitioners understand the impacts of climate change on natural and built coastal and marine environments and to provide strategies and tools to mitigate or adapt to those impacts. CRC provides climate change adaptation training and helps countries “apply a climate change lens” to all key policies and plans.
Climate Change Adaptation. To the extent deemed cost effective, and where feasible, in the context of both the project scope and the risk level for the asset due to global climate change, agencies must include features in the projects funded by the program to better adapt the asset to withstand the negative effects of climate change and make the asset more resilient to impacts such as fires, floods, and sea level rise.
Climate Change Adaptation. The municipality of Uppsala has worked successfully and systematically to adapt the community to the changed climate both now and in the future, but this work must be refined still further. Climate change adaptation work needs to be integrated with efforts to reduce human climate impact, and climate change adaptation forms part of the municipality’s Environment and Climate Change Programme. A number of committees hold designated and overall responsibility for the municipality’s climate change adaptation. Uppsala has integrated climate change adaptation into the municipality’s organisations and companies, according to the principle whereby initiatives must be implemented within the organisations affected that hold responsibility for the necessary measures. These efforts focus on selecting preventive measures that address the source of the problems as far as possible, selecting measures that mitigate or avoid increased climate impact, and selecting measures that provide benefits from a number of aspects, such as more green areas and a more attractive urban environment. The goal of Uppsala’s climate change adaptation work is for Uppsala to be a robust community that is adapted to the climate change occurring today and that cannot be prevented in the future. The municipality of Uppsala has devised a green structure plan to ensure that important green corridors in the city are preserved. This green structure plan will be incorporated into the comprehensive plan, and renewed cloudburst mapping has also taken place. The municipality intends to: • go on working actively and systematically on the community’s climate change adaptation by following up measures relating to spatial planning, issuing of permits and cloudburst planning aimed at reducing the risk of flooding and mitigating the impact of cloudbursts. • investigate and evaluate the chances of developing interim goals for an Eco- friendly Uppsala. • extend its efforts to include a model for ecological compensation in urban development and develop the initiative for ensure good access to green spaces in the city.
Climate Change Adaptation. XxxxxXxx includes goals for preventive climate change adaptation. According to the goal, the physical environment in Xxxx municipality will be designed to reduce vulnerability to risks associated with ongoing climate change between 2021 and 2030. Climate change adaptation is a complex issue that is interwoven into a number of the municipality’s plans and processes, such as how to manage heat waves or how to prevent flooding through stormwater management, for example. The district of Brunnshög is being used as a test bed for stormwater management and how cloudbursts can be managed by means of nature-based solutions. A cloudburst survey, heat survey and canopy cover survey have been carried out in order to reduce vulnerability and address future challenges.
Climate Change Adaptation. The municipal council adopted a climate change adaptation programme in May 2022 in order to reduce the impact of a changing climate and develop Xxxxx’s proactive and systematic climate change adaptation efforts. This programme provides a comprehensive view of the risks associated with a changing climate in Nacka municipality, and includes priority measures linked with risks involving cloudbursts, heat, sea level rise and biodiversity, which are currently deemed to be the greatest climate-related risks for the community in Nacka. One of the measures involves indicating in the comprehensive planning (the comprehensive plan) locations that can be used as multifunctional floodplains for planned and existing settlements. The programme also reinforces systematic efforts on climate change adaptation in the municipality; the ambition is for all planning and implementation to include adaptation to the climate of the future.
Climate Change Adaptation. The Project provided technical assistance to 186 producers to grow vegetable crops under controlled conditions in macro-tunnels with subsequent reductions in water consumption for irrigation. RVCP technical assistance to 348 horticulture producers to implement drip irrigation systems on 2.3 hectares for more efficient water use. Improve soil conservation by working with 134 producers from four organizations to implement live and still barriers on 20.08 hectares.
Climate Change Adaptation. The Participants will continue to cooperate to share climate risk datasets and results of climate impact assessment amongst each other and with wider stakeholders through the Asia Pacific Adaptation Information Platform (AP-PLAT) The Participants will continue to share experiences on improving respective climate risk management frameworks, including methodologies for undertaking climate impact assessment in order to mainstream adaptation into project planning, design, implementation and monitoring. The Participants will explore the potential to collaborate in formulating adaptation-projects based on the results of robust climate impact assessments, thereby increasing the opportunity of such projects to access climate finance.
Climate Change Adaptation. RVCP horticulture producers continue to plant in open fields so technicians continue to provide technical assistance on soil conservation practices (live and still barriers and contour planting), as well as on measures to adapt to climate change. Growers are implementing the measures on
Climate Change Adaptation. Climate change adaptation is an area requiring cooperation within the municipal organisation. The municipality’s crisis management, community planning and climate transition functions need to collaborate, with the common goal of bringing about a society that can cope with the consequences of a changing climate. Eskilstuna is currently working with climate change adaptation in a number of different areas in the municipal organisation. Cloudbursts have been mapped for the municipality, and this chart is included in the Eskilstuna map. A stormwater policy and plan has been developed for Eskilstuna municipality. The goal of the stormwater policy for stormwater management is that stormwater management should be designed to minimise harm to public and private interests as a result of heavy rain and cloudbursts in a changing climate as far as is reasonable. The climate change adaptation perspective is included in the work on the comprehensive plan and detailed development plans, in the committees’ risk and vulnerability analyses and in the municipality’s preparedness work. A systematic effort to deal with heatwaves in the municipality’s premises and activities is in progress, which includes adapting preschools, school playgrounds and retirement homes. The municipality intends to: • Carry on developing, creating an overview and coordinating its work on climate change adaptation, stormwater and water and sanitation within the group. • Work in 2024 to investigate and plan cloudburst measures in existing buildings.
