Cook Islands Adaptation Fund Project and NIE update

 Introduction  Cook Island – Quick overview  Project background  Project Objectives  NIE background and process

Objective  To obtain inputs and guidance from stakeholders related to formulating a project designed to enhance the resilience of communities in the Cook Islands through integrated climate change adaptation and disaster risk management interventions.

 Strengthening the Resilience of our Islands and our Communities to Climate Change (SRIC - CC)  Akamatutu’anga i te iti tangata no te tuatau manakokore ia e te taui’anga reva

 To strengthen the ability of all Cook Island communities and the public service to make informed decisions and manage anticipated climate change driven pressures (including extreme events) in a pro-active, integrated and strategic manner.

 The Programme will also contribute to all outcomes listed within the 2 objectives of the Adaptation Fund Strategic Results Framework and corresponds particularly to the following higher order fund-level outputs: ◦ Output 1.1. Risk and vulnerability assessments conducted and updated at national level; ◦ Output 1.2 Targeted population groups covered by adequate risk reduction systems; ◦ Output 1.3 Targeted population groups participating in adaptation and risk reduction awareness activities; and ◦ Output 2.2 Vulnerable physical, natural and social assets strengthened in response to climate change impacts, including variability. ◦ output 2.4. Targeted individual and community livelihood strategies strengthened in relation to climate change impacts, including variability  5 year programme of work

 To implement the Joint National Action Plan JNAP) for Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation  To reduce climate change related risks in the Pa Enua, and especially at community level

National capacity: integrate DRM-CCA into sectoral policies and plans, climate early warning system AF proposal - an opportunity to further develop and implement part of the DRM-CCA JNAP: Island capacity: integrate DRM-CCA into island-level development processes Implement on-the-ground measures: coastal management, agriculture, water, health Create programme management and delivery capacity that can attract further funding – because the AF funds will not be enough to cover all CCA-DRM needs
