  7. Profiling the Caribbean SIDS

  8. Caribbean SIDS: Threats & Weaknesses • High Vulnerability • Natural Disasters • Climate Variability and Adaptation Issues • Lack of economies of scale/Limited Resources • Susceptibility to internal and external shocks • High cost of operation • Cultural Diversity • Crime, poverty, social dislocation and urban problems

  9. Caribbean SIDS:Opportunities & Strengthens • Understanding of linkage between DRR and CC and relationship to development • CDM as a coherent strategy consistent with global norms and commitments and structured to regional context • Strong relationships among DRR practitioners and separately CC focal points allowing for the development of common positions and sharing expertise • Common threats mean common approaches – so existence of regional structures in response to limited resources • Focus on human development as reflected by the UNDP Human Development Report

  10. What is the CRMI • A multi-laterally Funded DRR/CCA Project • UNDP/BCPR and Regional Bureau, Latin America and the Caribbean (RBLAC) • Spanish Trust Fund • Others • Commenced in 2004 following the Havana Risk Project • Had 3 outcomes: • Increased capacity for climate change adaptation • Risk reduction and climate change adaptation integrated into development • Increased investment in climate risk reduction projects

  11. Achievements of CRMI Phase 1 • Creation of CRMI website in multi-languages • Support to the CDM • Capacity Development, including • Application of Climate & weather models - MM5 & Precis • Agricultural impact assessment • Gender and DRR Seminars • Training of UNDP Staff in BCPR methodology • Support for Masters Degree in DRR at UWI • Publication of 14 Good Practices in DRM & CCA • Regional gender study

  12. Achievements of CRMI Continued • Conducted vulnerability and capacity assessment in collaboration with MACC / CCCCC • Strengthen partnership with CDEMA, UWI, CCCCC, InsMet, Cuba • Established disaster risk reduction management centers (RRMCs) in Cuba • Financed first of 56 RRMCs in Cuba • Systematized process • Strengthen Local Governance • Provide planning and risk analysis tools • Link community to National Govt mechanisms • Provide DRM equipment and tools

  13. CRMI II: A Platform for Cementing the Present OBJECTIVES: • Continue Capacity Development for DRR and CCA within the region • Improve Management of Knowledge of CCA and DRR • Enhance Partnerships and Resource mobilization

  14. OUTPUT 1 • RRMCs piloted and adapted throughout the region and lessons learnt documented • Support the generation of new data and capture historical data on weather and the effects of climate including coastal changes • Support the development of Climate Scenarios for the Caribbean SIDS (CCCCC, CIMH, INMET Cuba, UWI)

  15. Output 2: Improve Knowledge of CCA & DRR • Community of Practice (CoP) in DRR and Climate Change Adaptation conducted • Scientific data translated into information useable to policy & decision makers, media at regional, national and local levels, including annual publications • Education courses & awareness raising • Caribbean Data bases developed and improved on DRR/CCA to inform GAR 11

  16. Output 3: Partnership and Resource Mobilization • Regional mechanisms for support to CCA & DRR management strengthened • Assist countries to assess adaptation funds • Conduct workshops to develop regional and national project ideas in support of DRR and CCA • South-South partnership • Transition of CRMI into a regional organization by end of project period

  17. Indicative Activities • Improved Modeling of climate scenarios • Training events in • gender integration for disaster managers • data collection & management, including collection of sex-disaggregated data. • Conduct sector specific studies on CC for one sector (agriculture tourism orcoastal protection).

  18. Indicative Activities • Provide Assistantships for Master's level programmes. • Replicate Risk Reduction Management Centers in 10 new countries. • Create the enabling environment for delivery of CCA programmes for specific sectors in the Caribbean SIDS • E.g., working with the Climate Risk Management Project (CRM) to resource regional and national programmes.

  19. CRMI Transition • By year 2 of this current run of CRMI, climate risk management component will be incorporated into the CRMI 2 to add leverage to the DRR and CCA mainstreaming process • Encourage support for mapping necessary for DRR and CCA activities in the region • CRMI 2 will be managed by a regional entity(ies). This will allow the BCPR to concentrate on other Recovery Programming in the region. • The UNDP/BCPR will have a useful product for cross fertilization in other regions
