NWPOutcome: Information on climate change threats to human communities was generated by the expert workshop, along with the identification of appropriate adaptation measures which incorporated both technical and policy recommendations. Examples of the recommendations include: Technical • Ecological protection and restoration, integrated coastal zone management, and management of use at the watershed scales as important actions to build ecosystem resiliency in the face of climate change. • Ecologically sensitive agricultural intensification and diversification as options for safeguarding human livelihoods in the face of climate change, minimizing impacts on biodiversity. Policy • Integration into governmental policy frameworks, including at national development planning and regional action plan level, review of the Madagascar NAPA. • Development of a rural development policy, highlighting areas most vulnerable to climate change. The recommendations for adaptation emerging from the vulnerability assessment are now being tested for feasibility in a second phase of the project. These will inform a comprehensive adaptation program for building community and ecosystem resilience to climate change in Madagascar.

Good practices and lessons learned: With regards to lessons learned, please also specify any specific success factors, challenges, and how these challenges were overcome. For enhancing the value of appropriate traditional practices, the implementation of the project included the creation of a manual in which they are compiled and validated. Seventeen adaptation practices, both traditional and non-traditional, have been developed in the Manual of Bribri and Cabécar Ancestral Practices, as mentioned below:
Integrated farm conservation (traditional)
Evaluation of our farms in the face of climate change risks and threats
Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions
Climate change records
Protection and conservation of water sources
Recovery of collective or communal work on the farms
Interplanting of trees and crops (Chamugrö)
Crop association and rotation (Teitö)
Use of traditional native (local) seeds
Reinforcement of patio gardening (Witö)
Cultural and ancestral soil protection and crop management practices
Rainwater capture
Water resource conservation
“Let’s not dump garbage”
Establishment of family gardens and family and community mini-greenhouses
Soil conservation
Model farms Challenge: The biggest challenge to achieving the results has been getting the different institutions involved in the project’s implementation to work in a coordinated manner between themselves and with the indigenous peoples’ authorities. We feel the way this challenge has been overcome is through dialogue and coordination, exhausting all forms of negotiation between the parties and, specifically with respect to the indigenous peoples, permitting the participation of cultural spokespersons.

Success Factors / Lessons Learned for Achieving the Expected Results:
Indigenous community participatory construction and validation: Seventeen agricultural practices were compiled through participatory workshops and field days on model farms with Bribrí and Cabécar producers, identification and ownership being the main goal of this process, which will have repercussions on the use and implementation of these practices in traditional ancestral farming.
Identification and participation of cultural spokespersons in the consulting and construction processes: The participation of cultural spokespersons was necessary to ensure understanding among the parties and facilitate processes between the indigenous peoples and the institutions. The use of these spokespersons was a suggestion by the local indigenous government that was put into practice by the project as a reciprocal learning process.
Value enhancement of traditional production practices: The recovery of traditional production systems has facilitated the learning and implementation processes, since it goes from known to unknown, simple to complex, opening up the possibility that, over time, indigenous communities will adopt and take ownership of not only the production system of their forebears but also the exploration and use of other production practices that will enable them to reduce their vulnerabilities and strengthen production opportunities without disparaging ancestral knowledge.
Joint work with the autonomous governance structures of indigenous territories: Respect for the autonomous authorities and their governance mechanisms was a determining factor for progress, since the success of participatory construction is based not only on consultation with and participation of the local population but also on the creation of forums for consensus so that the actions of this project can transcend local policy guidelines.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The project facilitates the creation of farm management plans, inputs, and technical assistance for at least 176 selected families, reaching 528 families all told over three years by means of a cascading system up to a second replication. The project contributes to maintaining the indigenous culture, which is characteristically respectful of the earth. In this respect, the beneficiary families and their surrounding communities are ensured of the maintenance of ecosystem social services.

This project enhances the value of the integrated diversified farm model (based on the cosmogonic model) of the Bribrí and Cabécar cultures as a more appropriate technological adaptation option for indigenous families, developing and implementing traditional agricultural production activities that help establish it as a replicable, sustainable model. In the interest of recovering key adaptation measures that are also traditional measures implemented by the indigenous peoples, one of the project's main outcomes in traditional and local knowledge management is the Manual of Bribri and Cabécar Ancestral Practices, which helps compile the knowledge of the indigenous communities and promote climate change adaptation measures, without restricting the appropriation of other measures.

The manual seeks to act as a guide to help strengthen the traditional indigenous farm, enhancing resource conservation, family economy, food security, environmental conservation, and other climate change adaptation measures, basing itself on the indigenous cosmovision and reassessing the strategies used by this population to deal with climate change. The manual’s target public is the producers, educators, youths, and children of the Bribrí and Cabécar indigenous territories since it seeks to disseminate the ancestral knowledge and practices used in the area, which are gradually being lost.

The project’s participating institutions have recovered the fact that indigenous farms are the theoretical foundation of current agroecological farms since these use impact- or damage-minimization mechanisms stemming from pressures on natural resources. Furthermore, it should be noted that the manual was created by the two indigenous territories themselves; that is, they are the owners and creators of the document.

Expected Outcomes:
Recover Bribrí and Cabécar ancestral knowledge, identifying and enhancing the value of their agricultural and forestry practices as an adequate technological option for dealing with climate change.
Raise the awareness of indigenous community inhabitants of the effects of climate change and the need for technical capacity building of the indigenous families involved in the project so that they can implement the adaptation measures.
Implement the agricultural and forestry practices of traditional indigenous farming to establish integrated production systems on family farms.
Manage knowledge through the systematization of lessons learned and best-recovered practices, and disseminate this knowledge through a manual.

The most significant outcome of the manual is the incorporation of the best agricultural practices identified in the planning of the production activities developed by families on their farms. In this respect, to date, there are 76 farm management plans that show the implementation of the best-identified practices in the daily work of the families.

Good practices and lessons learned: This practices is fully owned and led by local people, it is gladly supported by institutions at various levels: district development committees, agrovets, village development committees, district agricultural development offices, the Alternative Energy Promotion Centre, and insurance companies. This rich collaboration broadens ownership of the Climate Smart Village model, and helps to ensure the sustainability of the project’s impacts.

Key lessons learned include, but not limited to:
Ownership of local government is crucial for successful replication
There is a need of streamlining traditional practices in district-based adaptation plans and programs
Cross-sectoral planning is necessary to avoid duplications, and also to ensure ownership from various departments at the district/local level.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: As a result of various interventions, Soil fertility improved thanks to the johlmol technology – produced by the farmers themselves – which lowers the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Other techniques such as crop rotation, mixed cropping, and nitrogen fixation by intercropping also play a part in improving soil fertility. Water stress diminished as harvesting methods, and wastewater use for kitchen gardens make water resources more reliable. In addition, the broad adoption of mulching, by improving soil moisture, lowers the need for watering. Due to greater water availability and soil fertility, agricultural production is increasing sustainably. Energy requirements are reduced by crop residue trials and family-sized biogas plans, providing the slurry as a biofertilizer. The replacement of chemical fertilizers and pesticides also has a beneficial impact on the health of both farmers and consumers.

Furthermore, thanks to the critical information made available to them, farmers can better manage their resources and assets. In short, households´ resilience was enhanced: many are now insured, reducing their future risks and securing vulnerable assets; and thanks to various technologies, households are relieved from the respective costs of commercial fertilizers and pesticides and extra energy needs. Finally, by raising the awareness and understanding of the community on climate change and its impacts on local agriculture and ecosystems, the project ensures the sustainability of the outreach and better environmental management in the future.

Title: Enhancing drought resistance through guinea grass mulching

NWPInformationType: Case study
NWPDataSource: Local, indigenous and traditional knowledge
NWPRelevantStakeholders:

NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: Some lessons learned include the following steps for the implementation of the technology: Step 1: Harvest Guinea Grass before flowering (seeding), because when the seeding begins, the guinea grass stem becomes more liquefied and thus more difficult to break down as mulch. There are also a higher proportion of stems to leaves after seeding, and it is the leaves that account for the bulk of the matting that forms mulch. Timing is therefore critical when harvesting the guinea grass. Step 2: Secure sufficient amount of grass to adequately cover the area prepared for cultivation. To provide a mat that will not break down before the cropping season is over, it is recommended to use 46 cubic meters of dried grass per hectare of prepared land. Step 3: Apply fertilizers and any other soil treatment, especially if fertilizer will be broadcast and incorporated into the soil. Step 4: Prepare holes for sowing seeds or for transplant. Step 5: For ease of preparation the dried grass to be used should be piled in the vicinity of the land to be treated. Dried grass is to be removed from the heap, and the leaves arranged length-wise in a single direction over the prepared area, completely covering the soil. The process is to be repeated in the opposite direction, forming a matt. Step 6: Mulching operation is now complete and crop production activities may now proceed as usual. Additional lessons learned focus on the advantages of mulching: i. it allows crop production during dry periods in areas where this would not be possible without irrigation. The process reduces evapotranspiration and traps soil moisture within the mulch environment and makes it available for an extended period for the establishment of crops. In the early stages of seed germination, condensation on the mulch provides moisture for germinating seeds. Mulch also keeps the root environment cool, allowing better crop establishment and nutrient uptake; ii. it suppresses weed growth, reduces competition for soil nutrients and reduces cost of weed control; iii. it reduces soil loss from wind erosion, when soil structure is disturbed during harrowing or other traditional forms of land preparation. Mulching protects the soil from splash and rill erosion by reducing the impact of rainfall on the surface and prevents the development of rills; iv. the presence of mulch on the surface helps to deflect direct sunlight from the root zone of crops thus resulting in lower temperature in the root zone and more efficient utilization of soil nutrients; v. it facilitates improvement in soil structure by preventing deterioration of soil surface Incorporation of organic matter into the soil structure. This helps to bind soil particles together, thus improving structure and moisture-holding capacity; vi. it reduces the exposure to high temperature by the application of mulch, thus allowing greater availability of nutrients to plants. Many inorganic fertilizers, especially those with high nitrogen content and some organic manures (such as poultry manure), volatize if left exposed to high temperature; vii. it ensures a more even coloration between the parts of vine crops, such as melons and pumpkins that rest on the ground and the rest of the crop, and thus mulching improves their marketability. Mulching also prevent scarring of crops by providing a cushion for vine crops. viii. the improvement of soil properties achieved will benefit the resilience of farmers against climate variability and adverse climate events (droughts, floods, ect.). Also, it will improve the potential of the soil to increase the crop yield

Good practices and lessons learned: Good Practices:
The active participation and ownership shown to the project by the beneficiary farmers reflected the atrocities endured by them every year due to increasing droughts as well as ensured sustainability of this undertaking.

Lessons Learned:

a. Marginal communities need to think water as a commodity and not as a free resource.

b. Community governance of natural resources and sharing of project risk and responsibility are always best practices.

c. Integrated approach and resource convergence is a climate solution for poverty alleviation
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: a. Water banking and budgeted use along with participatory crop planning has increased the crop production almost by 2-folds.

b. Entrepreneurial water partnership of 50 youth established as ‘joint liability groups’ for water-banking and watershed management in 10 water bank units.

c. Assured water and food security to 500 plus households (nearly 3000 marginal farmers) securing an average income of USD 80 per month. This is 57.14% growth over 5 years.
d. Water foot-printing during the three years of intervention was done following FAO methodology (http://www.fao.org/docrep/u5835e/u5835e04.htm). The results show that there is a sharp decline in the gross irrigation need (SNgross) both in summer and winter cropping period reducing the water footprints by 43-47% on an average.

e. 5 rural indigenous villages brought within sustainable watershed conservation and management program towards inclusive growth.

NWPInformationType: Case study
NWPDataSource: Partner portal
NWPRelevantStakeholders:
NWPEffortsToAddressSOE:

Good practices and lessons learned: Good Practices:

• Technology cooperation building on sustainable aqua-farming for fringe villages of Bhitarkanika in Odisha has augmented climate adaptive conservation and community resilience.

• Feedback review from the targeted villages helped SAFE to communicate and assist them in an improved manner.

• Plantation campaign for 500 mangrove saplings attracted affirmative attention from the stakeholders and community alike, it also furthered the collective aim towards a sustainable future of the area.

Lessons learned:

• Lack of awareness, deficit of marketing chain and desire for quick money to pay away previous debts is compelling the coastal villagers to opt for prawn culture in saline ponds, leading to the slow degradation of Bhitarkanika’s entire eco system. Therefore SAFE is proactively working to induce sustainable alternative livelihood opportunities for a better life and environment through various research & development oriented activities.

• Although Fish pen and cage culture did see instant success, crab fattening technology had to go through trial and error before it yielded positive results.

• More than 50% beneficiaries were concerned about the conflict of interest with the departments of forests and existing forest protection rules, since they inhabit in the adjacent villages. Community based sensitisation workshops on ecosystem protection & discussion with forest officials are helping to mitigate this matter.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: • The community members showed eagerness to build capacities for augmenting alternative economic opportunities in aqua-farming. Informed consent for engagement in training program was received from nearly 90% of beneficiaries towards this venture.

• General consensus in collective aqua-farming from above 65% beneficiaries was a strong indication of social cohesion and convergence to a common cause. This seeded the concept of joint liability and inclusive growth.

• Acceptance of newer technology like ‘alga-culture’ & ‘crab fattening’ by 43% of the beneficiaries paved easier paths to ensure climate resilience.

• Grounding of the intervention was largely welcomed by the immediate stakeholders like the state departments of Fisheries & Agriculture, National Bank for Agriculture & Rural Development, local block administration, Central Institutes for Brackish Water Aqua-farming & Fresh Water Aqua-farming of ICAR. This would have futuristic impact on policy implications.

• A new interesting gender perspective got highlighted during the sociometric survey & Focused Group Discussions ( FGDs) with the men and women of the community. This has initiated further probe to identify the intricacies of the findings to help understand its effect on their environment and livelihood.

NWPRelevantStakeholders:
NWPEffortsToAddressSOE:
NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: Good Practices:

1. Informal waste pickers who once foraged waste in the landfills for livelihood have been mainstreamed through skill development and capacity building programs into artisans, working under safe and hygienic conditions.

2. Formation of joint liability groups (JLGs) under this venture that are bank linked and oriented with the trade has socially and economically empowered the beneficiary women community into leaders.

3. E-sensitization on waste segregation and contribution to Resolve Trash 2 Cash for recycling is slowly creating an attitude change towards sustainable lifestyle for urban stakeholders and citizens. This is further helping to develop the market for eco friendly recycled micro utility products for daily usage.

4. The beneficiary women are now trained to manage the revenue return which is used as working capital, micro-insurance and for profit sharing.

Lessons learnt:

1. It has been a challenge for SAFE to build up trust with the beneficiary community and it took many workshops and sessions to convince the women for an alternative livelihood opportunity. This is owing to the decades of exploitation and succumbing to the harsh reality of their everyday existence.

2. The success and case study of this ongoing model has paved a way for creating ‘model’ near zero emission cities with an advanced waste management system based on recycling.

3. Production of a wide range of handcrafted items and creation of new designs every day by the skilled artisans of RT2C has proved immense potential for waste recycling.

4. With new recycled products introduce in market, the demand is also steadily rising with an elevating graph each passing year. This increases the sustainability quotient of the endeavour.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: Social Responsibility & Outcome:-

I. Creating livelihood opportunity and capacity building: Resolve Trash 2 Cash is a full-fledged community enterprise that is creating livelihood for hundreds of waste workers but more so earning a dignity for them through inclusive growth & socioeconomic mainstreaming. Currently there are 14 direct employees under this venture with 80-85 more women linked to this enterprise for their livelihood.

II. Women empowerment:

(a) The Rt2C initiatives under Match International Women’s Fund (MIWF) support directly addresses the rights of the poor women waste workers who have been bank linked, their first social accreditation.

(b) They now manage the financial returns as well their raw material stock, production line, quality control of goods, sale proceeds and the overall merchandizing of the products.

(c) Subsequently, this empowerment has made them more aware of their right to health, right to dignity, right to water and sanitation, right to identity and importantly right to freedom.

Cultural enrichment:- This venture creates first generation artisans through devoted guidance and capacity building. The disciplined training and creative lessons make sure that this section of the society gets enriched culturally and in turn this is reflected in the utility products created by them.

Climate impact:- The concept of RESOLVE T2C is in perfect alignment with India’s largest sanitation drive “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” and has brought the countries effort to a global impact. The endeavor RESOLVE T2C at present recycles nearly 2000 Kg of paper, plastics and 3500 Kg of wet waste every week reducing an estimated 8500 MT of carbon equivalent emission annually. At the moment this project is sustained by the waste generated by 23 corporate houses, US Consulate of Kolkata, City Schools, supported by local municipal bodies like Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation and Kolkata Municipal Corporation. This endeavour is not only promoting segregation of waste and practice of the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse & Recycling) amongst the citizens but is simultaneously working to create a greener planet, condensing the impact of global warming and pollution.

Title: Water Sanitation & Hygiene for Urban Slums [WASH-US]
ID: 28659
NWPInformationType: Case study
NWPDataSource: Partner portal
NWPRelevantStakeholders:
NWPEffortsToAddressSOE:
NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: Good Practices:

1. Equity in accessibility has been ensured, the first criteria for water justice.

2. Time banking has been a boon for the community women. In a Focused Group Discussion (FGD) conducted with the women members of the JLGs, it has been noted that 57.2% women members are willing to plan for creating alternative livelihood opportunities since they have adequate time that can be used for capacity building exercises. However, a growing change in trend has been flagged in the FGD that the male members in the family are taking interest in water collection, measured usage and resource saving in the community. This is good practice saving time for the women folk.

3. The beneficiary community shows more attentiveness to their personal cleanliness, sanitation and inclination towards healthy habits.

4. The sense of security and safety for the women users have increased with the commencement of this project.
5. Community participation ensures ownership and project sustainability.

Lessons Learned:

1. Social stigma arising from poor socioeconomic condition and/or social transition is a big bottleneck for attitude change, especially in slum & rural community that leads to sustained use of unhygienic and substandard sanitation facilities and wastage of water resources in the name of hygiene. It has taken continuous capacity building programs and awareness workshops with the community to break through the prevalent social conditioning and stigma, deep rooted in their system. However, SAFE is still working to completely eradicate the social evils restricting a healthy living from the recipient populace.

2. Women from the peri-urban section are underprivileged and in some cases shy away from participating in the JLGs and decision making system, owing to the profoundly embedded gender roles and lack of confidence. A gradual development has been observed in this matter, achieved through a series of sensitization programs conducted in the area by SAFE and also by assuring water ATM card registration of each household in the name of the women members, ascertaining their active involvement.

3. Risk of political interest trapping commons as soft targets has been a common problem. Leadership and continuous counseling has been required to convince the people to come out from these entanglements towards a sustainable and healthy wellbeing.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The outcome post commencement of the facility can be widely divided into two sections:

I. Environmental impact:
The WASH-US facility not only runs on renewable energy, it generates too. The Water Treatment Plant and most of the lights in community sanitation units are entirely on solar power. This has a carbon offset equivalence of 28 Metric Tons per year. The 4.5 Cu Mt biogas plant generates of gas from human waste and municipal solid wastes and deserves carbon equivalence too as it saves landfill emission and fossil fuel emission. These are adaptive mitigations in the urban sector to downscale climate impacts. Further, reducing nearly 60% water footprints in a conservative method by utilizing the refusal water from water treatment plant in the sanitation units and harvesting 13420 thousand gallons of rainwater annually in a 3.8 hectare water system is yet another climate adaptive impact in WASH-US. (The calculations are based on UNFCCC guidelines and US-EPA mathematical models).

II. Socio-economic outcome:
The impact assessment was designed around key parameters such as Water Quality, Distance, Time, Energy, Accessibility, Community Participation and Equity. The perception of change and development among the community members has also been explored:

1. Community Responses to water quality grades: Water quality and taste has a major impact on health and consumption trends. In the survey conducted to identify the trend, the reference of better taste was received from 91.3% users. 7% referred ‘bitter tastes and light feeling’ compared to previously collected tap water, which is actually due to low amount of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) while a large section (77%) showed their preference of TDS grade, which could be identified with the batch of delivery water based on dates.

2. Equity in Accessibility: Equitable access to water energy and sanitation to above 14,000 beneficiaries at the bottom of the economic pyramid and 24X7 supply of drinking water to nearly 2500 slum households in a year.

3. Time banking: Easy access to safe and tasty waters and assured delivery in time has promoted the women folk for better time management in their daily life, saving time and space for more productive work. 98.5% agreed to the fact that the facility has saved an average of 4 hrs of queue time per day.

4. Positive impact on health, especially children and women, owing to better sanitation and safe drinking water supply. Reduction in infections and water borne diseases by 87% in the communities is rendering a cost cut of 35% on average in medical expenses.

5. Changing habits and attitudes: Ensuing changes in sanitation habits towards healthy practices is marked from the community responses wherein 100% convergence has been endorsed by the community.

6. Responsible usage of facility: It is unique to observe that community has developed the acquaintance for self-cleaning of the sanitation facility by default and has been responsible in using the facility as their own one.

In a Focused Group Discussion (FGD) conducted with the women members of the JLGs, it has been noted that 57.2% women members are willing to plan for creating alternative livelihood opportunities since they have adequate time that can be used for capacity building exercises. However, a growing change in trend has been flagged in the FGD that the male members in the family are taking interest in water collection, measured usage and resource saving in the community. This is good practice saving time for the women folk.

3. The beneficiary community shows more attentiveness to their personal cleanliness, sanitation and inclination towards healthy habits.

4. The sense of security and safety for the women users have increased with the commencement of this project.
5. Community participation ensures ownership and project sustainability.

Lessons Learned:

1. Social stigma arising from poor socioeconomic condition and/or social transition is a big bottleneck for attitude change, especially in slum & rural community that leads to sustained use of unhygienic and substandard sanitation facilities and wastage of water resources in the name of hygiene. It has taken continuous capacity building programs and awareness workshops with the community to break through the prevalent social conditioning and stigma, deep rooted in their system. However, SAFE is still working to completely eradicate the social evils restricting a healthy living from the recipient populace.

2. Women from the peri-urban section are underprivileged and in some cases shy away from participating in the JLGs and decision making system, owing to the profoundly embedded gender roles and lack of confidence. A gradual development has been observed in this matter, achieved through a series of sensitization programs conducted in the area by SAFE and also by assuring water ATM card registration of each household in the name of the women members, ascertaining their active involvement.

3. Risk of political interest trapping commons as soft targets has been a common problem. Leadership and continuous counseling has been required to convince the people to come out from these entanglements towards a sustainable and healthy wellbeing.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The outcome post commencement of the facility can be widely divided into two sections:

I. Environmental impact:
The WASH-US facility not only runs on renewable energy, it generates too. The Water Treatment Plant and most of the lights in community sanitation units are entirely on solar power. This has a carbon offset equivalence of 28 Metric Tons per year. The 4.5 Cu Mt biogas plant generates of gas from human waste and municipal solid wastes and deserves carbon equivalence too as it saves landfill emission and fossil fuel emission. These are adaptive mitigations in the urban sector to downscale climate impacts. Further, reducing nearly 60% water footprints in a conservative method by utilizing the refusal water from water treatment plant in the sanitation units and harvesting 13420 thousand gallons of rainwater annually in a 3.8 hectare water system is yet another climate adaptive impact in WASH-US. (The calculations are based on UNFCCC guidelines and US-EPA mathematical models).

II. Socio-economic outcome:
The impact assessment was designed around key parameters such as Water Quality, Distance, Time, Energy, Accessibility, Community Participation and Equity. The perception of change and development among the community members has also been explored:

1. Community Responses to water quality grades: Water quality and taste has a major impact on health and consumption trends. In the survey conducted to identify the trend, the reference of better taste was received from 91.3% users. 7% referred ‘bitter tastes and light feeling’ compared to previously collected tap water, which is actually due to low amount of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) while a large section (77%) showed their preference of TDS grade, which could be identified with the batch of delivery water based on dates.

2. Equity in Accessibility: Equitable access to water energy and sanitation to above 14,000 beneficiaries at the bottom of the economic pyramid and 24X7 supply of drinking water to nearly 2500 slum households in a year.

3. Time banking: Easy access to safe and tasty waters and assured delivery in time has promoted the women folk for better time management in their daily life, saving time and space for more productive work. 98.5% agreed to the fact that the facility has saved an average of 4 hrs of queue time per day.

4. Positive impact on health, especially children and women, owing to better sanitation and safe drinking water supply. Reduction in infections and water borne diseases by 87% in the communities is rendering a cost cut of 35% on average in medical expenses.

5. Changing habits and attitudes: Ensuing changes in sanitation habits towards healthy practices is marked from the community responses wherein 100% convergence has been endorsed by the community.

6. Responsible usage of facility: It is unique to observe that community has developed the acquaintance for self-cleaning of the sanitation facility by default and has been responsible in using the facility as their own one.

Good practices and lessons learned: The Government's decision to improve public transport infrastructure such as light rail lines in Lagos-Calabar, Lagos-Kaduna, Lagos-Ibadan, and Katsina-Daura, will help reduce vehicle emissions. The country's populace need to be educated on the need to pay (without subsidies) for construction of infrastructure. Communication needs to be improved between the Government and the citizens, to provide information on the nation's progress on its intended nationally determined contribution.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: Nigeria is a crude oil producing nation, and as such flares a significant amount of gas; about 8 billion metric tonnes of gas is flared yearly according to the World Bank 2016 report on Global Gas Flaring. The countries legislation is working to pass the, 2016 Gas flaring prohibition and punishment bill, in to law.
The country's decayed public transport infrastructure has played a role in the number of vehicles plying Nigerian roads. The country had 11.5 million registered vehicles in 2016. These vehicles contribute a high amount of methane to the environment. The country needs to improve the rail, and water transportation system, however, this has been hindered by lack of finance for the works.
The country's target of generating 13 GW of solar PV by 2030 is also under threat due to lack of investments by the private sector and the Government cannot afford it at the moment. This lack of investments is likely due to a lack of trust in Government's ability to allow pricing to be decided by cost of production.
The practice of climate friendly agriculture is also a challenge. 90 percent of cattle farming is done through pastoral method. According to the country's ministry of Agriculture - Livestock census 2016, the country has, 12.5 million cattle. This implies the country's cattle produces about 1.8 million metric tons of CO2E in 2016.
The Government must overcome these challenges and find ways (some were suggested by the report) of achieving the 2030 vision.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: Two study hypotheses are presented from the results of the study:

a) The good connectivity in the areas of distribution of birds in Catalonia could offset the effects that climate change causes in populations.

b) The indicator does not reflect temporary changes because they are not giving (at the moment) to be masked by the effect of other factors of global change.

This work opts for the second interpretative hypothesis. Previous studies in Catalonia show that, as a whole, populations of open-source species show a negative global tendency due to the growing rural abandonment, while forest species increase their populations due to the natural growth of vegetation.
Therefore, we must keep an eye on the changes in connectivity as possibly responsible for population changes in the future.

NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: To increase the scalability, the case study approach is utilizing scientific method and evidence, thus enabling a proper monitoring and evaluation.
As su-re.co is working on this approach locally, the case study creates better social impacts as communications with the farmers, government officials, businesses, and other relevant stakeholders happening directly. This constant approach is a key on building rapports and trust with stakeholders. How the case study is being developed around a clear sustainable business model and a local approach is an important consideration for out-scaling the case study approach.

Currently, the case study team is continuing on developing a more robust biodigester system. This development will lead into a better economic feasibility for the farmers, thus increases the number of farmers and commodity production. A more robust and reliable biogas digester will also create more opportunity on the utilization of biogas digester for more value-adding activities to further increase famers’ product value and quality.
The case study team is also working on constantly improving the market, increasing their awareness and knowledge to increase the potential penetration of sustainable products thus allow more farmers to be incorporated by the team and increase the overall impact.

Apart from that, the case study team is also experimenting on other products as a sustainable chocolate filled with crushed coffee beans, with both main ingredients are sourced from the coffee andunder the CFS program. On the other hand, the case study team is also out-scaling the approach outside of Bali, reaching out East Nusa Tengara, another highly vulnerable province on the eastern parts of Indonesia.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: Contributions to SDG
As more coffee are sold throughout the duration of the project, more farmers started to be aware of climate’s impact and environmental sustainability as more of them decided to join the Climate Field School in Jembrana.
Increasing the quality and quantity of the products on the market is a key on showing real incentives for both the farmers and business partners.
Besides, showing how the case study works on the grassroot level create an evidence for the policymakers, thus capturing their attention. It is proven that in 2017, the case study team was invited to represent the “GREEN-WIN project in Indonesia” at ASEAN-EU Meeting in Science and Technology Innovation conference on Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar.
The case study approach and activities are highly linked with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), thus it is easily translated to the government development plan.
Biogas digesters, a technology that produces biofertilizers and biogas by degrading manure or organic waste, is a potential solution to those previously mentioned health issue caused mainly by the utilisation of dirty energies (SDG12). Organic fertilizers will increase the productivity of farmers, which will allow them to switch to higher end crops translating into higher incomes (SDG8).
These case study also aims to provide farmers with renewable energy (SDG7), reduce firewood collection (SDG5), improve product quality (SDG15), reduce the impact of indoor house pollution (SDG3), and greenhouse gas emissions (SDG13).

Lessons learnt from the Illovo sugar cane initiative could be transferred to the entire sugar industry in developing countries to improve the understanding of the risks and vulnerabilities faced by out-growers. Similarly, the experience in the sugar-growing sector could be used to see how to apply and adapt these models and tools to other sectors or crops.
As a result, by raising awareness of the importance of climate resilient development, the initiatives could inform and lead to changes in the policy and regulatory environment. Such efforts are counted as scaling up.

NWPOutcome: Contributions to Sustainable Development Goals
Through a collaborative approach, smallholder farmers are equipped with a knowledge that enables them to build resilience. The transboundary tool helps to rise awareness about the risks and possible impacts of climate change on the farmers. The case study approach and activities are therefore also linked with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
Increasing the productivity of the farmers translates into higher incomes that support decent jobs (SDG8) which subsequently strengthens the fight against poverty (SDG1) as it emphasizes on reducing the climate risks and vulnerabilities. It will also create social and environmental value, take action to combat climate change and its impacts (SDG13) by strengthening the smallholders’ adaptive capacity. Through the initiative and collaboration, not only Illovo’s future supply of sugar cane is secured (SDG 2), but with the support, the farmers livelihoods are improved, which makes it a possible way to tackle social inequality in Africa (SDG10).

Title: Fly Ash Bricks: Brick production using fly-ash from thermal power plants in India
ID: 28679
NWPInformationType: Case study
NWPDataSource: Partner portal
NWPRelevantStakeholders:
NWPEffortsToAddressSOE:
NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: This GreenWin India case study is working with the local community to create a regional value chain and communal wealth by cycling waste, while also maintaining the relationship with all the stakeholders such as entrepreneurs, government officials, and private sectors. It is indicated that a good relationship between all the stakeholders is the key to the success of the project; since it would be hard for the fly ash brick makers to survive if the government or the policy makers do not support them by making regulations that will help them to sell the bricks.

For example, currently the government of Bihar has taken steps to accelerate the adoption of green brick production technologies in the state. Bihar will need over 7500 million bricks over the next five years just to meet the rural housing gap of 1.1 million dwellings per year. Potential savings of 2.8 million tonnes of CO2 emissions are possible while creating livelihoods for 0.35 million people by introducing cleaner production systems.

In order to capitalise on this potential, the Bihar government has formed an inter-departmental task force. The major areas that the Task Force will be looking at
1) increasing awareness among entrepreneurs through workshops and seminars, 2) facilitating policy support for large scale adoption by providing incentives to green technology enterprises,
3) facilitating increased and easy finance support for small entrepreneurs through banks and other financial institutions for uptake of green technologies, and
4) accelerating service delivery through capacity building of technology providers.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The case study approach and activities are highly linked with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). As fly ash brick enterprises have increased from 25 in 2014 to 129 in 2016, it indicates more entrepreneurs become aware of the impact of climate change and have chosen to contribute to build a low carbon economy. Shifting the brick material to from topsoil to fly ash waste from thermal plants to reduce the GHG emissions (SDG 13) and pollution can help to ensure healthy lives (SDG 3).
Besides, various social benefits are also associated with the commissioning of new fly ash units. The establishment of new units creates new employment opportunities that contribute to poverty eradication (SDG 1). The establishment of new fly ash units also promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization (SDG 9) that will significantly raise industry’s share of employment and gross domestic product (SDG 8).

Title: Sustainable urban transportation with low-carbon mobility in the sharing economy. Shanghai case study.

Good practices and lessons learned: The value of sharing is central to human cultural development, exchange and wellbeing (Ma et al., 2017). The emerging sharing economy provided Mobike a collaborative way to transform Shanghai residents from passive consumers to active value co-creators (Lan al., 2017). In aligning its business with the core of the sharing economy, Mobike involved a high level of contribution from its users. Moreover, a self-organized group, known as the Mobike Hunters, implemented mechanisms of social regulation of Mobike users’ behaviour. The system incentivised good sharing behaviour by allocating Mobike credits for activities such as reporting damaged bikes and deterred violation of user rules by deducting points for behaviours such as inappropriate parking. As collaboration increased and users contributed to the company’s commercialisation through the app, both Mobike and its users were able to form concerted values of nurturing green, affordable and flexible transport. Mobile apps and other Information and Communications Technology (ICT) platforms provided Mobike a very direct way to enable and mediate shared mobility with its users. Embedded GSP technology in the bikes and real-time data easily links the FFBS service straight to the user through their mobile app. No rental station, dispatcher is needed and the fare payment is automatic.
The ability of ICT platforms to rapidly pool information and facilitate exchange of resources has fostered app-based sharing networks to expand at unpreceded levels. Experts predict the app-based economy will be worth more than 5 trillion euros by 2021. In Shanghai, more than 10 million shared mobility users and 1.5 million shared bikes are operating through ICT platforms hosted on apps (Policy Brief No. 642018, GREEN-WIN, 2018).
Mobike aligned its low-carbon transportation vision with the two key enabling factors of app-based mobility – convenience and cost (Policy Brief No. 642018, GREEN-WIN, 2018). Mobike appeals to users through its flexibility through an inexpensive ICT platform-based app and easy-to-access alternative urban transport. According to Prof. Chen Xiaohong from Tongi University (2016), by combining features of innovative technologies and sharing, Mobike and other low-carbon shared mobility providers can break the locked-in transport structures in cities such as Shanghai and therefore drive sustainable solutions.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: Mobike’s entry into the market as a strong and fast growing business coupled with government cooperation was understood as a misleading market signal for great business opportunities (GREEN-WIN, 2018). This led to over-investment, competition, and over-supply of bikes in a very short period. The success of Mobike in Shanghai triggered 13 new companies to launch similar FFBS schemes between January to August 2017. By the end of June 2017, Shanghai was flooded with more than 1.7 million shared bikes and over half of the city’s residents were registered users of a FFBS scheme (Ma et al., 2017). Consequently, these impacts on the market formed negative interactions with local Chinese governments and the city authorities of Shanghai, for instance, responded by removing 300,000 bikes from public areas and by placing obstacles to limit companies’ operation. The rapid upscale led to user misbehaviour such as vandalism, dumping and illegal parking of the bikes, which exacerbated the material stress on public spaces already caused by the flooding of bikes. These increasing pressures dramatically altered government and citizen attitudes towards FFBS schemes, breaking down initial support and concerted efforts to adapt Mobike to Shanghai’s infrastructure.

BENEFITS AND KEY LEARNINGS
Reducing environmental impacts and achieving socio-economic benefits through low-carbon shared mobility
Mobike contributes to an alternative urban lifestyle through access-based mobility rather than private vehicle ownership, eliminating high costs of insurance, parking, maintenance and fuel consumption for users. This, in turn, can significantly reduce CO2 emissions and other material environmental impacts of car production, usage and infrastructure. A 2017 report by Tsinghua University (TUPDI, 2017) shows how 200 million Mobike users in 200 global cities riding across 18.2 billion kilometres reduce about 4.4 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. At the same time, reducing emissions by commuting with low-carbon shared mobility also benefits the user by nurturing positive sharing behaviour and encouraging an active lifestyle.

Key Learnings
Forming collaborative relationships with key stakeholders at an early stage was critical for Mobike (GREEN-WIN, 2018). Detachment between Mobike and local Chinese governments were not realised until rapid up-scale processes caused disruptions and stresses to governance. The transportation sector possesses a unique set of challenges and implementing FFBS or other low-carbon mobility schemes in the sharing economy is a cross-sectoral issue: multilateral engagement of citizens, governments, public and private actors was missing at an early stage (Ma et al., 2017). In addition to sharing bikes, Mobike also shares data and carries responsibilities that require a ‘virtuous sharing environment’ to support all present and future operational needs (Policy Brief No. 642018, GREEN-WIN, 2018).
It is necessary to consider governance strategies to mitigate the outlined negative effects and effectively adapt low-carbon mobility schemes such as FFBSs brought by the sharing economy to cities (Ma et al., 2017). Without local government support to provide road space, parking and other public resources, poorly executed operations of the FFBS schemes can frustrate both users and local municipalities (Policy Brief No. 642018, GREEN-WIN, 2018).
Trust building is fundamental to sustain the shared motivations between Mobike and local governments, namely synergising FFBS schemes with a sustainable urban transportation system (Ma et al. 2017). Consistent dialogue and continued engagement between key actors can build trust to ensure all parties allocate relevant resources in a balanced manner to prevent adaptive lags or disruptive up-scaling. While inexpensive apps and simple ICT platforms can rapidly expand sharing networks, FFBS and other sharing mobility schemes must ensure governments have adequate time to integrate appropriate public resources into its infrastructure. This can also ensure Mobike and similar companies allocate an appropriate number of bikes that are optimally distributed to avoid over-supply while still meeting demand.

Title: Global Indicator of Climate Change Adaptation in Catalonia
ID: 28627
NWPInformationType: Case study
NWPDataSource: Partner portal
NWPRelevantStakeholders:

NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: - As a result of applying the principal component analysis, a synthetic adaptation indicator was obtained. This will enable us to monitor the development of Catalonia's capacity to adapt to the impacts of climate change. This synthetic adaptation indicator is determined by two factors that explain 100% of the variability of the original information contained in 29 indicators. Each of these factors corresponds to a different aspect: (1) use of resources and (2) environmental quality.
The synthetic adaptation indicator, expressed as the result of both factors, shows a medium level in terms of the capacity to adapt to climate change impacts; just a pass. The evolution of this capacity has been decreasing slightly in recent years (2011 versus 2005). It is important to bear in mind that in order to monitor the synthetic indicators properly, rapid access to the information relating to the original indicators is required. These indicators should be reviewed every five or ten years based on new information available (in order to include more aspects in the synthetic indicator).
- It should be noted that biodiversity is the primary source of environmental services, so its effective or poor adaptation to climate change impacts will directly affect the other natural systems and many, if not all, economic systems. Biodiversity has thus far not been included in this quantitative analysis of the adaptation, but its key importance means that a more qualitative evaluation is also needed.
The fishing industry was also omitted from the analysis, but for a different reason. In this case, there were initially three indicators, but they were rejected during the first selection process because they were largely indirect, since the adaptation measures were highly general. It is necessary to wait until more basic knowledge of the impacts and the most effective measures for combating climate change in this sector is available.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: In order to standardize the information, the values of all variables were converted to values of 0 to 1. Using the statistical program Stata, two factors that explained 100% of the variability of the original information were obtained. The first factor explained 61% of the variability and the second factor 39%. The significance of the two factors was interpreted as follows: the first factor evaluates the use of resources (primarily water and energy), while the second factor evaluates environmental quality (primarily atmospheric emissions). Values below -0.8 or above 0.8 were considered to be strong contributions.
Finally, to avoid overweighting groups with a greater number of indicators, the influence of each of the 10 groups (systems and sectors) was evaluated. Thus, the weighting of natural systems and socio-economic sectors based on their vulnerability to the impacts of climate change (and in accordance with the ESCACC diagnosis) resulted in the indicators being divided into the following five groups, from most to least importance:
1. Water management (35%)
2. Agriculture and livestock; Forest management; Health (30%, i.e. 10% each)
3. Energy (8%)
4. Industry, services and trade; Tourism; Urban planning and housing; Mobility and transport infrastructure (24%, i.e. 6% each)
5. Research, development and innovation (3%)
Lastly, within each factor, the weighted value of the indicator is multiplied by the indicator's contribution to the factor and by the value (between 0 and 1) of the indicator during the selected time period (years). By performing this calculation for both factors and for 2005 and 2011, the results are obtained: both factors have a medium value (around 5). In both cases, there was a slight decrease in the year 2011 compared with 2005.

NWPRelevantStakeholders:
NWPEffortsToAddressSOE:
NWPFocusonNElossesFlag:
Good practices and lessons learned: Climate change, alongside landscape change and population dynamics is resulting in dramatic environmental changes in the HKH region. This drives a shift of disease vectors and disease transmission from tropical regions into temperate regions and highlands, as has been predicted for both observed and future climate change scenarios.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The systematic review of climate change and the spatiotemporal distributions of VBDs in Nepal and comparison of the results with those of other studies from the Hindu-Kush Himalayan (HKH) region show a consistent trend of VBD expansion in the HKH region . Over the last decade, the distribution of these diseases and their vectors, which were previously believed to be confined to tropical and sub-tropical regions, is now observed to extend to the hills and mountains of the HKH region

Good practices and lessons learned: There is insufficient evidence to suggest that rainfall directly affects the frequency of diarrhoea in Chiredzi given that 28% of variation in diarrhoea is due to random variability for rainfall. Other factors could be contributing to spread of diarrhoea. Spatial distribution of diarrhoea could be a function of limited safe water which is a climate issue. Even though rainfall and temperature are inversely related to diarrheal diseases, erratic rainfall can compel people to make use of contaminated water.

Good practices and lessons learned: Such health vulnerability and adaptation assessment would need to be discussed with different stakeholders and done by team of multi discipline professionals. The health vulnerability and adaptation assessment would be better if it was supplemented with targeted field observation and community discussion. Regions have to conduct their own health vulnerability and adaptation assessment taking districts as unit of analysis.

NWPInformationType: Case study

Good practices and lessons learned: Three hypotheses explain the spatial heterogeneity of malaria cases in the DRC: population poverty and health system inefficiency; the weakness of the provision of healthcare and systems of protection of the population; and the seasonal variation of the climate and the degradation of the environment. The study provides more targeted proposals for intervention in zones with the highest risks as well as in their surroundings.
NWPMandatesandFrameworks:
NWPModalityApproachandMechanism:
NWPOutcome: The study highlighted the incidence of malaria per region in the DRC, and pointed out some of the reasons why such incidence is still very high in the country. These include: the inadequacy of diagnosis infrastructures and insuffient number and training of health workers, the poor management of waste, wastewater and stormwater; poverty that keeps populations away from modern health infrastructures; and the bioclimatic environment that generates ecosystems favorable to the endemisation of certain pathologies.

Title: ECLIM (Environment and climate: Impacts, risks and adaptation), Department of Geography, University of Zurich and Department of Geosciences, University of Fribourg,
ID: 28584
NWPInformationType: Organizations working on slow onset events
NWPDataSource: SOE
NWPRelevantStakeholders: The target beneficiaries of our work are local communities, local institutions, practitioners and policy makers in mountain regions around the world. Our efforts are to build knowledge and capacities for the local population starting from the training of young and senior researchers as well as professionals and the involvement of local stakeholders and communities in the design of research questions and in the communication of research results. We closely work with research institutions worldwide; we produce joint publications, outreach material and develop joint project proposals.

In our research, we look in particular to enhance the understanding of key climate change impacts on mountain systems, the cryosphere and on related downstream systems in terms of socially, culturally, economically and politically relevant aspects. In this sense we support the development of innovative adaptation strategies to successfully manage risks from such impacts.

NWPEffortsToAddressSOE: In the following we provide an overview of selected projects, which also give an idea of the tools and mechanisms developed for addressing slow onsets events and in particular glacial retreat impacts, and temperature increase.

AquaFuturo: The project addresses several key scientific gaps related to the analysis of current and future water risks in data-scarce mountain regions. This is achieved by coupling hydro-climatic (water supply) and socioeconomic (water demand) data in an integrated water balance modeling framework, as a basis to develop scenarios for the future with local stakeholders, and iteratively analyse water risks and adaptation strategies based on the IPCC and IRGC risk governance frameworks (2016-ongoing).

Glaciares+: Efforts on risk reduction and climate change adaptation in the Peruvian Andes, with a particular focus on capacity building activities and efforts for strengthening public institutions and collaborations with the private sector, namely regarding hydropower production (future activity): 2012-ongoing.

SMD4GC: Sustainable Mountain Development for Global Change. In the framework of this programme, the role of our group is to create and transfer knowledge between and within a number of Mountain Hubs in the Andes, Himalaya, Central Asia, Europe and Africa on sustainable mountain development, which also include knowledge on climate change impacts and risks in mountain areas and option for adaptation (2014-ongoing). This work is carried out with contributions from the World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS).

Indian Himalayas Climate Adaptation Programme (IHCAP): strengthening institutions for adaptation measures among vulnerable communities; Mainstreaming adaptation policies for improved action in the Indian Himalayan Region (2012-2016).

PACC (Climate Change Adaptation Programme in Peru): we supported a number of Peruvian Universities in data analysis, climate model and scenario development, climate impact and vulnerability assessments in the different thematic fields, in climate change monitoring and information systems, and in teaching courses at the academic level (2008-2016).

Cost-benefit assessment of climate adaptation measures in Switzerland under uncertainties: we developed a dynamic, stochastic model and used dynamic programming to explore the optimal adaptation decisions under uncertainty in face of uncertain impacts from climate change such as debris flows and flooding (2013-2015).

NWPFocusonNElossesFlag: We focus amongst other on the loss of ecosystem services such as cultural heritages and identity (e.g. loss of permanent snow and ice), regulating services (e.g. buffer against extreme events) and the provisioning services (changes in fresh water availability).

Good practices and lessons learned: For local communities risks related to slow onset events may be perceived as more important than risks from sudden onset events, among other because the probability of occurrence of slow onset events is typically much higher.

Adaptation and risk reduction strategies that only focus on sudden onset events and risks without considering slow onset risks may fail in their local implementation because of the aforementioned local perception
Loss related to slow onset events (such as loss of permanent snow, or glaciers) may imply fundamental social and cultural disruption for local (indigenous) communities.

NWPMandatesandFrameworks: For entities working on national and/or sub-national levels:

Please describe your efforts underway to integrate consideration of slow onset events into development plans, poverty strategies, etc.

We primarily have a mandate to produce knowledge on climate change impacts, adaptation and disaster risk reduction with a particular focus on mountain and cryosphere systems. We study impacts and associated risks over a large range of space and time: from analyzing impacts in the past and its attribution to climate change to projections into the future. We are also responsible to train the next generation of climate researchers and to develop training activities.

NWPModalityApproachandMechanism: The work of our group is undertaken in the context of national and international climate and environmental research and policy. We collaborate with national and international academic institutions, governments and organizations, typically with an adaptation and risk reduction perspective. In this sense our work is conceived at the boundary between research, policy and practice. We provide information to our stakeholders through scientific articles, policy briefs, participative workshops and inputs at conference and workshops.
