1. Climate change & Environmental Degradation Risk & Adaptation assessment
Introduce self
Circulate attendance sheets
Refer to networking exercise – say that the questions are all relevant to different workshop sessions
House rules
CEDRA Intro:
Do we understand how CC will impact our communities?
How does ED add to this?
Other issues – food security, water, etc?
How resilient are our programmes?
How do we prioritise? Which is the greatest risk?
What is adaptation?
CEDRA is a document with a process to guide us through tihs
FIRST – A QUIZ – WITH A PRIZE
I’ll trust you to be honest
But watch your neighbours!
I’ll ask the questions, stand up in response to one of the options
If anyone gets them all right, they get a prize!
[Facilitator’s name]

2. Workshop Purpose
To explore together . . .

3. An overview of the science of climate change

4. What climate change impacts to prepare for
Do we know how CC will impacts our communities & projects?
Are we facing floods or drought? More disease? Conflict? Displacement?
Which communities are the most vulnerable? How would we know?
Are our projects resilient?
How would we know if they’re going to fail?
CEDRA guides us through all these issues

5. Climate change interaction with other related issues
environmental degradation
deforestation
Climate change interaction with other related issues
food security
climate change
What should we prioritise?
Climate change/ ED
Food security
Natural disasters
Water resources
Advocacy
Renewable energy
Natural resources
Reforestation
CEDRA helps us idenfity linkages and prioritise action
natural disasters
water & sanitation

6. How do we determine local climate change projections with any certainty?

7. Community participation Building on their resilience and coping mechanisms

8. What is adaptation. How does it differ from DRR
What is adaptation? How does it differ from DRR? Sustainable livelihoods?

9. How do we prioritise our response? What are the biggest hazards?

10. Share learning & experience

11. TF have developed a tool to help you through this - CEDRA
Logical structured process – simplifies understanding science, adaptation, priorities = programme resilience
Identifying environmental hazards and climate change projections
Community participation in developing responses - human right for inclusion
Risk Management approaches: - prioritising climate change impacts to respond to - ensuring the sustainability of their project portfolios
Adaptation plan
Too big for one agency – multi agency
