Assessing local government capacity Sample Clauses

Assessing local government capacity. During FY 2015, CCAP using the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction’s (UNISDR) Local Government Self-Assessment Tool (LGSAT) and companion Disaster Resilience Scorecard conducted baseline assessments in Pemba and Quelimane to understand the cities’ level of preparedness to weather-related impacts. The LGSAT is designed to provide a platform for local government personnel to take a critical look at their own institutional strengths and weaknesses related to disaster response. This tool assists local governments in proactively developing responsive actions to become more climate resilient, measure progress, and inform further improvements. Preliminary findings revealed that while the municipalities face deficiencies across all ten dimensions of resiliency measured by the scorecard, there are specific areas where targeted CCAP support could quickly enhance their preparedness and resilience.
