  1. Financing – Mobilizing Finance for Adaptation in the Water Sector WaterDay UNFCCC – Bonn intersessionalmeetings The Nature Conservancy June, 2010

  2. Outline TNC and Climate Change Climate Finance: overall picture Needs & Distribution of Responsibilities Sources, Agents & Channels Types of Financial Instruments Fast-start Finance: why is it important On the ground: Water Funds in Northern Andes

  3. Why Climate Change Matters to The Nature Conservancy? “Every acre of land and mile of coast protected by The Nature Conservancy, every state and nation where we work, will be affected by climate change. The Nature Conservancy’s commitment to mission compels us to act. Our science, reputation and experience call us to lead.”

  14. Why water funds and Protected Areas are a good adaptation strategy? Water Funds Multiple Benefits: Conservation, Social, Economic Adaptation • Maintain regular water supply • Conserving ecosystems that are biologically adapted to store and regulate water release • Maintain Integrity and Resilience of the ecosystems and watershed system • PA and landscape focus – improved connectivity, threat abatement (cattle ranching), soil stabilization • Enhance people’s resilience to change • Best management practices on productive systems (soil stability-fertility-water retention, etc) • Income diversification

  15. Why water funds are a good adaptation strategy? Water Funds Multiple Benefits: Conservation, Social, Economic Adaptation • Economic Benefits • Cost-effectiveness (ex. sedimentation costs) • Ensuring viability of economic development (ex. sugarcane industry) • Multi-sectoral Governance Structure • Decision-making board that includes representatives from multiple user groups of water resources • Long term mechanism – good framework to work on climate change
