  2. Climate Variability and Climate Change Climate Variability • Shorter-term: Daily, Seasonal, Inter-annual • Disasters…. • Rapid responds • Warning • Preparedness • Risk reduction • Assessment Climate Change • Long-term: Decades or longer • Loss of development investment and benefits • Risk reduction through climate wise development • EIA/SEA • Measures to change society to live in new climate WECOOP Dushanbe

  3. Two Target Areas for Risk Management Hazard Impact Reduction • Measures to reduce the frequency or physical impact of climate events • “Structural” • Infrastructure • Significant immediate investments • Risk assessment and cost-benefit based Socio-Economic Vulnerability Reduction • Focuses on Livelihoods • Improves ability to bear the cost or avoid a hazard event • Low cost continual investments • Risk assessment and cost-benefit based WECOOP Dushanbe

  4. Application Disasters (Variability) • Assess impacts (social, physical) • Identify means to reduce impacts • Prioritize on threat to life • Multiple approaches: education, regulations, training, equipment Development (Change) • Assess & develop impact scenarios • Prioritize based on societal outcomes (e.g., changes in foods, work) • Define changes needed to reduce/avoid impacts • Ensure agreement • Plan and manage change WECOOP Dushanbe
