1. INTEGRATING BIODIVERSITY & CLIMATE CHANGE IN ACTIVITY DESIGN Hadas Kushnir (E3/FAB) Jonathan Cook (E3/GCC) Olaf Zerbock (E3/FAB)

2. Gain a better understanding of how to integrate biodiversity and climate change when designing activities Learn from other missions about designing and managing integrated biodiversity-climate change activities Make connections with mission and Washington staff to facilitate advice and support on designing and managing integrated biodiversity-climate change activities in the future SESSION OBJECTIVES

4. Reviewed USAID examples of integrated programming: Hariyo Ban (Nepal) RESILIM (So. Africa) Mekong ARCC (RDMA) Costas & Bosques (Ecuador) LESSONS LEARNED DOCUMENT

5. SHOULD I INTEGRATE? Integration can amplify impact and sustainability …. Or it can dilute results and complicate management Should lead to improved, measurable results and make the sum of an activity greater than its parts

6. INTEGRATION MODELS AND FUNDING SOURCES Integration models Co-funded (or all three) Single funding source with co- benefits Funding sources GCC-Adaptation: address impact of climate stressors on development priorities GCC-SL: reduce emission from deforestation and other land use activities Biodiversity: address most important threats to biodiversity Nabin Baral, USAID

7. CO-FUNDING Used together, biodiversity and adaptation funds can address vulnerabilities and threats across different: Timescales Geographies Sectors Biodiversity and sustainable landscapes funds can work across the landscape to reduce deforestation and maintain biodiversity.

8. SINGLE FUNDING SOURCE WITH CO-BENEFITS Biodiversity funding with adaptation or sustainable landscapes co-benefits Adaptation or sustainable landscapes funding with biodiversity co- benefits Indirect attributions

9. DESIGN ESSENTIALS Make good use of existing analyses Think about timescales Make smart site selections Create multidisciplinary teams Avoid stovepiping in the Results Framework Use custom indicators Focus on threats (BD/SL) CSAG for USAID, 2014

10. EXAMPLES OF POTENTIAL INTERVENTIONS Ecosystem valuation for decision-making Integrated planning and management Governance, tenure and property rights Biodiversity and climate monitoring Sustainable agricultural practices Ecosystem management and restoration Chemonics for USAID, 2011

11. SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPES AND BIODIVERSITY Connections may seem obvious, but focus on specific objectives and requirements Geographical priorities may not be identical (for carbon storage and biodiversity) Areas may not be a top priority for SL if there aren't deforestation threats (current and/or future) Not all biodiversity-related livelihoods activities make sense for SL (e.g. wildlife trafficking-related)

14. What are one or two key lessons learned that came out of the discussion in your groups? What are some issues or questions that you still feel need to be discussed? REFLECTIONS

15. Write on index card with your name and mission –What type of support, if any, does your mission need to design and implement integrated biodiversity and climate change activities? CLOSING QUESTION
