The Climate Change Adaptation Project on Building Climate Resilient Farming Communities in Agusan del Norte through Innovative Risk Transfer Mechanisms A demonstration Project under the United Nations MDG-F Joint Programme on Strengthening the Philippines’ Institutional Capacity to Adapt to Climate Change ILO-DTI-DOLE Climate-related disasters & climate variability represent a major source of risks for the POOR in particular, the FARMERS who are dependent on “good weather” for their survival and livelihood! Farmers in Agusan del Norte... Lack access to credit info Generally obtain financing from traders at very high interest Lack acceptable collateral With limited business knowledge and experience Have unstable income & cash flow Have low paying capacity Low availment of insurance (crop, Life/Non-life) LIMITED access to mechanisms that improve and sustain productivity, transfer and manage risks, as such increase resilience!!! Project Objectives 1-Develop and test financial safety nets for climate vulnerable farming populations, esp. women 2-To develop the capacities of vulnerable populations to avail of the benefits under economic diversification and a democratized governance system Integrated Financial Package Financing as Usual: LGU, Coop & Rural Bank Models • Prod’n Loans Bundled with NonFinancial services - Low interest - Non-collateralized - Climate Change & - Less document requirements Environment Briefings - Financial Literacy - Simplified processing - Production-cycle responsive - Agri/Enterprise Tech Support (FFS) releasing - Market Info/Assistance • Coop/RB: Savings Insurance - Health, Credit/Life - Crop (Traditional & Weather Index-Based) Weather Index-Based Insurance (WIBI) - ILO/PCIC An insurance scheme in which “claims” are based on agreed weather indices and not on the “actual” damages suffered by the crops. Indices are developed on the basis of a good amount of historical weather data and crop yield correlated to weather. Does not require field assessments of damages; Claims are paid out once a certain “index” is breached. Potential to respond more quickly to farmers when there is limited amount of rainfall (drought) or excessive amount of rainfall expected to adversely affect crops. Why WIBI? Climate change is causing the weather to be unpredictable. Farmers are vulnerable as they depend on good weather for their livelihood. Enables farmers to protect their livehoods by transfer of the climate risks to insurers. Weather Index-based Insurance (WIBI) Insurance as Usual: Rice and Corn Packages A package of 5 Products: Excess and Low Rainfall Indexes Affordable premiums Faster pay-outs -No field assessments of damages -No need for filing of claims pay-out automatic upon breach of index Delivered under the IFP- bundled with other Financial and Non-Financial Services - WIBI literacy - Techno Training: Recommended Agri Tech & Pest Control (FFS-IPM) Climate Change Adaptation Support Programme (CCASP) – Innovative Financing, Insurance Solution & Marketing Assistance for Farmers & Fishers in Agusan del Norte & Caraga Region 2009-2011 The Climate Change Adaptation Project on Building Climate Resilient Farming Communities in Agusan del Norte through Innovative Risk Transfer Mechanisms A UN-GOP and PublicPrivate Partnership - A follow thru undertaking aimed at sustaining and building on the gains of the CCAP and expanding the delivery of the benefits of the developed and tested innovative risk transfer mechanisms especially the IFP –cum- WIBI Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) December 16, 2011 Agusan del Norte’s Weather Index-Based Insurance (WIBI) developed under the ILO-DOLE-DTI Climate Change Adaptation Project 2009 – to present “Microinsurance and Natural Catastrophes: Towards a Public-Private Cooperation for Efficient Risk Management” 3-4 February 2015 Manila, Philippines Brenda B.

Research and modelling takes time and money 2. WIBI literacy needs to be conducted in several brief modules, through adult learning techniques/games and in local language; and should be continuing 3. The literacy module also has to include advocacy for adoption of good farm management Lessons Learnt4. The system for monitoring the breach of index should be developed early and one which all parties including farmers are able to monitor. 5. Maintaining accuracy of instruments and securing measurements 6. The index are deemed most effective in areas not more than 20 kilometres from the weather measurement instrument (to minimize variation between the weather experienced at the farm level and at the instrument level) Lessons Learnt 7. Given the novelty and limited exposure of the WIBI proram in the two test municipalities – famers need more intensive WIBI literacy briefings 8. Certain farmers especially those with prior experience with the traditional crop insurance still prefer the traditional insurance over the WIBI - because a. non-inclusion of pests an diseases among the insurable risks under WIBI b. dissatisfaction with the pay-outs/no pay-out even if farm is flooded (need to study inclusion of flood peril) c. cases of delayed payments (certification process) d. doubts on pay-outs (breached index without damage) WIBI in the Overall Risk Management and Integrated Financial Package Scheme Lessons LearntDevelopment: Understanding target groups’ characteristic and needs for financial and nonfinancial services through relevant analysis inc. Vulnerability & Adaptation Assessments, Farming Value Chain Analysis & Market Research are critical in the design of diversified, affordable and sustainable packages Package Components/Features: Bundling financial services with non-financial services makes the package more attractive to the poor while increasing their opportunities to maximize outputs and diversify their productive activities. Group solidarity as collateral substitute – allows availment and access by asset-poor communities Emphasis on savings products (voluntary or compulsory) help farmers to better deal with emergencies including disasters and to be less loan dependent for their economic activities Lessons Learnt Integrating insurance and other social protection mechanisms- to include crop, health & medical insurance, strengthen confidence of farmers to engage in agriculture risk taking while protecting their crops and their families. Integrating risk reduction measures to financial packages work to reduce exposure for more effective resilience-building work. Engaging in Public and Private Partnership with LGUs, training institutes, financial service providers inc. insurers) facilitate the effective, greater reach for financial and/or non-financial services and sustainability of delivery. Special Recommendations for LGUs • Localize and enforce the provisions of the National Organic Agriculture Act to promote greener and more productive agriculture for climate change adaptation. • Ensure the deployment of at least one Agriculture Technician per Barangay with corresponding capability building and budgetary support to ensure effective delivery of agro-technology services to farmers. • Ensure the establishment of Enterprise Offices which support development of rural enterprises (agri and nonagri-based) Thank You
