Analyses of socio-economic and environmental effects of agroecological practices – a methodological guidance
Missing scientific evidence for positive economic benefits and environmental effects of agroecology is a major problem hindering its large-scale implementation. To allow for better evidence-based decision making, this publication provides the methodological guidance. It addresses both project implementers and researchers who are in the process of preparing and choosing context-adapted socio-economic analyses and ecosystem services valuations related to agroecology. In this way, it is intended to support future economic studies conducted within agricultural and rural development programmes.
Évaluer la pertinence de la gestion durable des terres pour l’adaptation au changement climatique
Les technologies pour la gestion durable des terres (GDT) ont souvent plusieurs avantages, notamment pour l’atténuation et pour l’adaptation au changement climatique. De plus, elles soutiennent les objectifs des producteurs et productrices en matière d’augmentation et de sécurisation des rendements.
Ce guide et l’outil Excel présentent une méthode participative pour identifier les risques climatiques pertinents et pour évaluer dans quelle mesure les technologies GDT répondent à ces risques, ainsi que leur faisabilité au niveau local.
InsuResilience Sectoral Community Recommendations on Integrated Resilience Approaches in Agriculture
The Sectoral Community (SC) on Integrated Resilience Approaches in Agriculture was developed to inform, design and test innovative integrated solutions in the agricultural sector, as well as support the development of funding criteria for such projects. This guide is targeted at those designing projects and developing proposals for integrated resilience approaches in agriculture and those funding these projects.
Metodología para la Evaluación de Riesgos Climáticos en la Infraestructura Pública de Costa Rica: MERCI-CR
La metodología para la evaluación de riesgos climáticos en la infraestructura pública de Costa Rica (MERCI-CR) presenta un instrumento para analysar los riesgos y preparar la protección de la infraestructura y la continuidad de los servicios públicos vitales ante eventos climáticos.
Assessing the adaptation relevance of soil protection and rehabilitation
Soil protection and rehabilitation (SPR) technologies often provide several advantages, including benefits for mitigation and adaptation, while supporting farmers’ goals to boost and secure their yields. This guide and Excel-based tool provide a participatory method for identifying relevant climate risks and assessing how well SPR technologies address such risks along with their local feasibility.
Climate Risk Communication Guideline
This guideline offers insights and lessons learned on the preparation and implementation of climate risk communication approaches. It was developed by the Community of Practice Climate Risk to provide directions on the preparation and implementation of communication approaches and the dissemination of results to different users and target groups for the improved uptake of the results of climate risk and vulnerability assessments.
Methodological guidance to assess the value for money of premium and capital support towards climate and disaster risk finance and insurance
This guidance note contributes to the practical implementation of the Value for Money (VfM) principle. It does so by proposing a framework and methodology for the ex-ante assessment and comparison of different premium and capital support (PCS) options, aiming to inform and support decision-makers.
Methodological guidance to determine the ‘size’ of premium and capital support (PCS) at macro level
This document proposes methodological guidance to define the ‘scaling factor’ to determine the size of premium and capital support (PCS) at macro-level. It is based on the ‘SMART PCS Principles’, developed by the InsuResilience Global Partnership (IGP) to scale-up the Climate and Disaster Risk Finance and Insurance (CDRFI) solutions.
PIEVC Green Protocol — Integrating Ecosystem-based Adaptation into Infrastructure Climate Risk Assessments
The PIEVC Green Protocol describes a step-by-step methodology of risk assessment and optional engineering analysis for evaluating the risk of climate change on infrastructure, while considering the broader social and environmental systems within which the infrastructure component is situated. Information developed through the assessment process will assist owners, operators and other professionals, to effectively incorporate climate change adaptation into design, development and management of existing and planned infrastructure and its surrounding environment, including ecosystems.
Climate Justice in EbA: the new publications collection
The IKI-funded and GIZ-implemented Global Project Mainstreaming EbA is launching the new collection of publications on “Climate justice in Ecosystem-based Adaptation”. In early 2022 the Global Project on Mainstreaming EbA together with FAKT Consult launched a process to assess and contribute to bridging the gap between theory and practice of justice-based EbA. The outcomes of this process have been used to develop a collection of publications which hold knowledge and can provide guidance to bridge the gap towards justice-based EbA on the ground.
