Background. Climate Change Committee. Learning Exchange. Vulnerability Assessment. Climate Change Summit. Lets Respond Tool Kit. Climate Change Strategy. Overview

Background ANDM- increasingly recognized as one of the areas in South Africa that will be hardest hit by climate change However, its natural biodiversity and ecosystems resource base presents significant opportunities for adaptation and building local community resilience against extreme hazards and adverse climate change impacts.

Existence of UCPP-platform for CSA/ANDM collaboration. Introduction of the Climate Change Adaptation Concept MOU developed and signed by all LM’s, ANDM and CSA Journey

Climate change committee(CCC) Comprised of 4 LM’s, ANDM, Sector Departments, CSA, SALGA. TOR were developed for establishment of CCC CCC responsible for integration of climate change into the IDP. Chaired by ANDM Environmental Management Unit.

Learning Exchange The Namakwa District provides a comparative study which could be applied and also used to verify ANDM findings. Climate forecasting scenarios have highlighted a pattern of an increase in temperature and a reduction in precipitation.

Learning Exchange Despite the foreseeable challenges, significant actions have been taken in Namakwa to place climate change at the centre of development: climate change integration into the disaster management plan 2010/2011.

Learning Exchange Completed vulnerability assessment study of the district Rollout of lets respond toolkit in the district in 2013 and 2014.

Vulnerability Assessment (VA) This was a CSA funded initiative. Objective: -undertake a scientifically robust and logical process to examine the climate change context in Alfred Nzo District. -identify the key areas for Supporting Climate Change Resilience, Ecological Infrastructure and Ecosystem-based Adaptation.

VA outcomes Modelling of likelihood scenarios for primary climatic variables: - temperatures both medium (50 year) and long term (100 years) - rainfall patterns both medium (50 year) and longer term (100 years)

VA outcomes……. Medium term: average temperatures are expected to rise by 1.7°C across the district. Medium term: decrease in annual rainfall is expected across the district, with main changes being spring and summer rain decrease, and increased winter rainfall.

VA outcomes Long term: average temperature expected to rise by an average of 3.7°C above current conditions for the district as a whole. Long term: 5.4mm rainfall increase is predicted across the district, Grasslands, Savanna and Coastal belt biomes will be affected by all these changes.

VA Outcomes Biodiversity priority areas &water related EI -areas important for protection(Protected areas expansion) Ecosystem Based Adaptation -importance of maintaining and restoring Ecological Infrastructure (rivers and wetlands) - areas important for supporting climate change resilience

Climate change summit CCC Summit held in April 2014 and its objectives were: To share ANDM climate change vulnerability assessment report with relevant stakeholders. To develop a sector-based climate change adaptation strategy which would help vulnerable people becomes more resilient to climate change. To discuss how the climate change committee can inform infrastructure planning. To prioritise areas and projects for climate change adaptation and disaster avoidance..

Lets respond tool kit ANDM/SALGA and CSA collaboration. Rollout of lets respond toolkit in the district focused on integrated development and how to incorporate climate change issues into municipal IDP. SALGA /ANDM CCC workshop

Climate change response strategy Climate Change and IDP’s:  Job creation projects  Adaptation projects  Climate resilient projects  Sustainable Infrastructure projects  Biodiversity protection  Wetlands management
