Department of Environment and Natural Resources Foreign-Assisted and Special Projects Service Philippines Climate Change Adaptation Project (PhilCCAP) Objective Develop and demonstrate approaches that would enable targeted communities to adapt to the potential impacts of climate variability and charge. Description PhilCCAP is a pilot project which has the objective of developing and demonstrating approaches that would enable targeted communities to adapt to the potential impacts of climate variability and change. This would be achieved by strengthening existing institutional frameworks for climate change adaptation, and by the demonstration of cost-effective adaptation strategies in agriculture and natural resources management. The project will increase communities’ adaptive capacity by improving: a) farm management capability under conditions of climate risk; b) access to information on weather forecasting and climate patterns; c) access to risk management options such as weather index insurance; and d) strengthening ecosystems. The primary beneficiaries include poor farmers who often suffer climate-related losses, and other vulnerable groups that depend on natural resources for their livelihoods. Contact Details Wilbur G.
