TRADEOFF ANALYSIS OF ADAPTATION STRATEGIES IN THE PHILIPPINES RD Lasco1R.V.O. Cruz2, J.M. Pulhin2, F.B. Pulhin2 1World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) 2Environmental Forestry Programme, UPLB RD Lasco ICRAF
Outline • Objectives and methods • Results • Implications RD Lasco ICRAF
Problem Statement • Hypothesis: specific sectoral adaptation strategies may complement or conflict with strategies for other sectors. • Three sectors: forest/upland agriculture, water resources, and institutions • Adaptation strategies for each sector have been identified through multi-sectoral consultation workshops, experts meetings, and focus group discussions • Objective: conduct a cross-sectoral analysis of recommended adaptation strategies to determine potential synergies and conflicts between them RD Lasco ICRAF
Imperata grasslands cover > 2 M ha RD Lasco ICRAF
18-20 M people live in the uplands RD Lasco ICRAF
Tradeoff Analysis of Adaptation Options • a simple and quick approach for analyzing the potential synergies and conflicts between sectoral adaptation options which policy makers and other local stakeholders can use. • involves the use of matrices to show the positive and negative interactions between sectoral adaptation options RD Lasco ICRAF
Adaptation strategies for forests and agriculture RD Lasco ICRAF
Adaptation strategies for water resources RD Lasco ICRAF
Adaptation strategies by institutions RD Lasco ICRAF
Summary of effects of adaptation strategies in one sector to other sectors Legend: RD Lasco ICRAF
Management and Policy Implications • Adaptation strategies in one sector could have positive and/or negative impact in other sectors, i.e. tradeoffs do exist. • while sectoral analyses have their merits, they are not sufficient. • a cross-sectoral analysis at the watershed scale should be done to reveal potential synergies and conflicts between sectors RD Lasco ICRAF
Implications… • Cross-sectoral analysis of adaptation strategies will enable managers to anticipate potential conflicts early on • It is possible to identify climate change adaptation strategies that could address more than one sector thus enhancing synergy • Cost is the major limiting factor of adaptation strategies RD Lasco ICRAF
Future Research • Quantification of tradeoffs • Place specific best-bet adaptation strategies RD Lasco ICRAF
