Building Capacity on Climate Change Adaptation in Coastal Areas of Pakistan 2012

2 The country has a long latitudinal extent stretching from the Arabian Sea in the south to the Himalayan mountains in north It is located in sub-tropics and partially in temperate region Most Parts of Pakistan are Arid to Semi Arid with significant spatial and temporal variability in climatic parameters 59% Annual Rainfall is due to summer monsoons; Greater Himalayan region above 35 o N receives winter precipitation mostly in the form of snow and ice.

Climate Change What it means to Pakistan?

Pakistan’s Shifting global view The Most Dangerous Nation The World’s Bravest Nation

Pakistan – where we are ?

Global Climate Risk Index for UNDP, 2011: Human Development Report, Country CRI score Death toll Deaths per 100,000 inhabitants Absolute losses (in million US$ PPP) Losses per unit GDP in % Human Development Index 1 1 (68) Pakistan , , (53) Guatemala , (100) Colombia , (75) Russia , , (65) Honduras (88) Oman , (14) Poland , (93) Portugal , (23) China , , (38) Tajikistan

Natural Disasters Maximum natural disasters (90% in the Table) are climate related. –The damage costs of these natural disasters is going up with the top three disasters occurring in the past three years –The frequency of these natural disasters is going up with 60% occurring in the past 10 years. DisasterDateDamage (000 US$) 1 Flood Earthquake Storm Flood Flood Flood Flood Drought Flood Flood

Which led to….. Massive displacements and climate refugees……

The price tag ! MethodTime period Cost of adaptation per annum Actual (2010) One year (2010) As a percent of GDP Per Capita Basis to 14.0 Disaster Modeling (Floods only * 3) to 11.3 Adaptation to climate change is going to be a high value figure in the future (U$ 6-14 bn per year range)

Strategy for Adaptation Regional cooperation on CC –not luxury but an imperative. Regional R&D cooperation as well as transfer of data and learning on issues such as : Glacial melting Coastal cyclonic activity Floods early warning systems Objective - manage the risks + share the benefits

Local Adaptation Plan of Action (LAPA) Piloted in Nepal through NAPA Vision –Enable communities to understand the changing uncertain future climatic conditions and engage effectively in the process of developing adaptation priorities –Implement climate resilient plans, that are flexible enough to respond to changing climate and vulnerability conditions

Local Adaptation Plan of Action (LAPA) Decentralized and bottom up planning Multi actor involvement Local vulnerability and adaptation focussed Local level ownership Low risk and high impact Mainstream development

LAPA In Pakistan Customized by LEAD Pakistan for a 5 year Project being Implemented in Southern Punjab and Sindh Innovations –Participatory socio-scientific approach with elaborated tools (19 tools in total) –Enhanced Stakeholder Participation –Integrated Performance assessment and monitoring –Effective Public Policy Engagement

Way Forward By 2015, 10 District level LAPAs will be developed in partnership with 45 Capacity built Partners Organizations working under CLEAR Project By 2015, 2 LAPAs will be developed in Coastal Areas of Pakistan in collaboration with WWF-P under CCAP Mainstreaming LAPA in Disaster Preparedness
