Introduction to the SDC tool and guidance “CEDRIG”
 Climate, Environment and DRR Integration
 Reference documents
 The CEDRIG Handbook
Disaster Risk Reduction – some history since 1990 – frameworks, tools
1990‘s: International Decade for Natural Disaster Risk Reduction
 1995 Kobe Earthquake
1999: Creation of UNISDR (International Strategy for Disaster Reduction
 2004 Asian Earthquake and Tsunami
Interlink to:
2000: International Development Goals
 The Millenium Development Goals 2000 – 2015… the post-2015 debate
2005 : The 10-year plan to make the world safer from natural hazards
 Hyogo Framework for Action 2005 – 2015
2007: SDC Guidelines on DRR
 Disaster Risk Reduction: an important dimension of sustainable development
2009: OECD Policy Guidance for Integrating CCA into Development Co-operation
 Climate Change Adaptation: a critical development issue
2012: SDC CEDRIG – Climate, Environment and DRR Integration Guidance
 Systematic integration of DRR /CCA into Development
2007: SDC Guidelines on DRR
Disaster Risk Reduction: an important dimension of sustainable development
Purpose of the SDC DRR Guidelines 2007:
Show how SDC contributes to global efforts to substantially
reduce the disaster losses in lives and social, economic and
environmental assets of communities and countries by:
1) reaffirming that disaster risk reduction is a fundamental
dimension of safe life and livelihood and sustainable development,
2) taking into consideration that many SDC activities
– albeit labeled differently – implicitly contribute to disaster risk reduction,
3) providing guidelines on how to cope systematically with disaster risks emanating
from natural hazards,
4) integrating disaster risk reduction in existing SDC planning and operational
processes (mainstreaming).
OECD Policy Guidance: Integrating CCA into Development Co-operation
ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT
2009: OECD Policy Guidance for Integrating CCA into Development Co-operation
 Climate Change Adaptation: a critical development issue
The objectives of this policy guidance are to:
Recognize implications of climate change on development
 enhance knowledge; explain methodology
 promote understanding for needed measures (adaptation)
Identify appropriate approaches
 integrate climate adaptation into development policies
- at national, sectoral and project levels and
- in urban and rural contexts
 develop and use tools and learn from examples
Identify practical ways to support partners
 reduce vulnerability to climate-variability and climate-change
The OECD Guidance motivated SDC to combine the DRR / CCA tool !
 SDC CEDRIG – Climate, Environment and DRR Integration Guidance
SDC CEDRIG – Climate, Environment and DRR Integration Guidance
Structure of CEDRIG:
Part I = Aim, Concept and Support Material of CEDRIG
 Motivation and scope
 Organisational and procedural issues
 Supporting materials
Part II = The CEDRIG Handbook
 Module 1: Risk and Impact Screening
 Module 2: Detailed Assessment at Strategic and Programmatic Level
 Module 3: Detailed Assessment at Project Level
Note:
 The handbook is self-explanatory
 It is hands-on guidance
SDC CEDRIG – Part I – Aim, Concept and Scope
Systematic integral integration of reflections related to risks
Enhance overall resilience of systems and communities
A screening tool for risk management
Consideration of Risk Perspective and Impact Perspective
Three different risk perspectives:
Climate, Environmental and Disaster Risks
Two different impact perspectives
Climate Change Mitigation, Environmental Impact Mitigation
CEDRIG is a support tool for risk identification related to:
- Climate Change
- Environmental Degradation
- Tectonic Activities
- Impacts on GHG emissions and / or the environment
CEDRIG Part I – Risk perspective
Disaster risks and its influencing factors
Risk perspective - combination of different factors
CEDRIG Part I – Overlaps CCA / adaptation to degraded environment
The CC and Environmental Community and the DRR Community
must work together !
CEDRIG Part I – Integrating Climate Change and DRR into Development
Left side:
Focus on vulnerability and overlaps with
traditional development practices
Right side:
Target the climate change impacts
outside the realm of development
CEDRIG Part I – Key terms for the impact perspective
The „lion‘s share of GHG emissions are produced in developed countries
 However, reducing them should not be neglected in developing countries
Also activities for development or humanitarian aid can lead to increased GHG…
Development Cooperation
 Optimize projects to reduce possible negative environmental impacts
CEDRIG Part I – Scope
Risk Perspektive and Impact Perspective
 both must be considered in Humanitarian Aid so as in Development
CEDRIG Part I – Principles
Modular approach and flexibility
 Module1 = Risk and Impact Screening
If necessary (i.e. if the result of Module 1 shows evidence):
 Module 2 = Detailed Assessment at Strategic and Programmatic Level
 Module 3 = Detailed Assessment at Project Level
CEDRIG Part I – Main Elements of CEDRIG
Module 1 – Risk and Impact Screening
First filter to assess risk relevance emanating from:
CC, environmental degradation, and/or tectonic hazard;
or if there is impact on GHG emissions and/or the environment
Module 2 – Risk Assessment Lens at Strategic and Programmatic Level
Only to be applied if Module 1 shows evidence
Systematic integration of adaptation to CC and to degradated environment
Module 3 – Detailed Assessment at Project Level
Applied if possible significant risks from disasters or impacts identified in Module 1
Risks and impacts, identification of adaptation, risk reduction options, mitigation options
