Addressing the impact of climate change, this project aims to develop strategies for sustainable water resource management in DPR Korea. Through a strategic framework and capacity building, the project seeks to enhance efficiency in water resource use. The planned activities include local water resource investigations, bio-system relationship assessments, scenario-based water resource evaluations, priority decision-making, and social/economic impact predictions. The project budget includes GEF funding of $150,000, co-financing of $250,000, and $100,000 in-kind contribution from the government.

Capacity building for the development of the sustainable use strategy of water resource in DPR Korea
Project rationale and objectives • The water resource is one of the sectors most influenced by climate change in DPR Korea. The climate change causes many negative effects, for example flood, drought and sustainable reduction of water resource due to the rapid increment of the amount of outflow of water during the rainy season, which results in serious damages in the national economy and people’s lives. • there are many problems to solve in the short time or long time because of the lack of study and experience of scientific and sustainable water management. • The objective of this project is to establish the strategic framework for the efficient and sustainable use of water resource in DPR Korea corresponding with the needs of GEF.
Expected Outcomes • To establish a methodology for the estimation of the amount of water resource based the scenario on climate change. • To establish a strategic framework for the efficient and sustainable use of water resource. • To strengthen a human capacity for the sustainable and scientific management of water resource.
Planned activities to achieve outcomes • Investigation of the local variation of water resource according to climate change • Interpretation of the mutual relationship between bio-systems in the forest and sea rising in the coast which have a great impact on water resource • Evaluation of the prospective amount of water resource based on various sorts of scenarios on climate change by using the tools such as IWRM , WEAP • Decision of priorities of alternatives • Suggestion of future action plan • Prediction of social and economical effects • Workshops
Estimated budget • GEF: 150,000 US$ • Co-financing:250,000 US$ • Total: 400,000 US$ • Government: 100,000 US$ (in kind)
