1 National Adaptation Plan (The Process)
Grenada’s Experience PRESENTED BY TITUS D. ANTOINE

2 Objectives Give an Overview of he Nap Process in Grenada.
Highlight Key features of Grenada’s Nap Give Recommendation

3 Where Is Grenada?

4 About Grenada

5 Nap Process Begins Kick-off workshop in February 2015 using GIZ SNAP Tool to conduct a stocktaking of ongoing and previous adaptation actions Initiation and launch of the NAP process, including briefing state and non-state stakeholders about the risks from a variable and changing climate and how the NAP process can help address these.

6 How was Nap Document Developed?
To lay the groundwork for the NAP process a participatory snapshot of needs as well as current and intended capacities was undertaken in 2015

7 Snap Analysis

8 Nap Consultation Deepens
Extensive review of existing documentation (policies, plans, studies, reports etc.) on climate scenarios, vulnerabilities, risks and adaptation options for Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique. 9 sectoral workshops (agriculture, water, tourism, infrastructure, health, fisheries/MPA, forestry, coastal zone management and Carriacou/PM) to develop sector plans with prioritized actions.

9 Process climaxed One final national consultation with 67 stakeholders to add costing and responsibilities, plus final editing of text and discussion on the NAP’s vision. bilateral meeting: NaDMA, Met office, Finance

10 Grenada’s Nap Process- Timeline
Nap Kick Off Workshop took place in 2015 with the Ministry of the Environment leading the process Participation was received from over 160 stakeholders (60% male/ 40% female participation) Participants came from the Public Sector & Non-State Actors which included: Line ministries, departments and agencies, SOE’s, Statutory Bodies. NGO’s, CBOs, Private Sector Companies, private citizens, Academia, Research Institutes, Women and Youth Groups

11 Grenada’s Nap Process Guidance
Continuous guidance and oversight from National Climate Change Committee The process was guided by the 2012 UNFCCC ‘Technical guidelines for the national adaptation plan process’. Grenada also received support for the NAP process from the Government of Germany through the ICCAS project executed by GIZ.

12 Principles followed Grenadian Ownership: To be Grenada-owned and Grenada-driven, through applying a participatory and consultative process. SIDS-specific: To recognise human and financial capacity constraints, and adopt an approach that works within these circumstances NAP as an instrument to mobilize financial resources to compensate unchecked emissions of greenhouse gases by large emitters.

13 Principles Followed Mainstreaming/ Integration: To not only integrate sectors in a national adaptation plan, but climate change adaptation considerations into the sectors, which are budgeted for and implemented. Pre-cautionary principle: Uncertainty should not be used as a reason to not take action. Remain flexible: To monitor, evaluate, report and iterate.

14 NAP Features The NAP document covers a 5 year period ( ) It consists of 12 programmes of action with 14 corresponding goals and 20 indicators.

15 Grenada’s Nap Vision A resilient nation that continuously adapts to climate change by reducing their vulnerability through comprehensive adaptation strategies.

16 Plans of Action: 1: Institutional arrangements
2: Mainstreaming/ Integration 3: Water Availability 4: Food Security 5: Ecosystem resilience 6: Integrated coastal zone management 7: Resilient infrastructure and sustainable land management 8: Disaster risk reduction and disease prevention 9: Climate and sea-level rise data and projections 10: Sustained public education and participation 11: Climate Financing 12: Monitoring & Evaluation

17 Grenada Nap Aims to: (i) take a medium- and long-term approach to reducing vulnerability to the adverse effects of climate change (ii) facilitate the integration of climate change adaptation, in a coherent manner, into relevant new and existing policies, programmes and activities, in particular development planning processes and strategies, within all relevant sectors and at different levels, as appropriate.

18 Nap Process Recap

19 Grenada NAP Supports UNFCCC -LDC Working Group set framework for resilience and adaptation planning, incl. NAP CARICOM’s Climate Change Implementation Plan ( ) Grenada’s Climate Change Policy and with Grenada’s National Determined Contributions (NDCs).
