IS THE PACIFIC COMMITTED TO ADDRESSING DRM AND CC?
All Pacific countries have made commitments to address DRM and CC.
At the global level through the implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015 and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
At the regional level through the Pacific DRR and DM framework for Action 2005-2015 and the Pacific Islands Framework for Action on Climate Change 2006-2015.

WHAT IS THE PACIFIC DOING AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL
ESTABLISHED UNITS WITHIN AGENCIES TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE
ESTABLISHED NATIONAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT OFFICES
SOME COUNTRIES HAVE BOTH IN THE SAME AGENCY
COUNTRIES HAVE ENDORSED POLICIES AND LEGISLATION FOR DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT
DEVELOPED DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT NATIONAL ACTION PLANS (NAPS)
SOME COUNTRIES HAVE DEVELOPED NATIONAL ADAPTATION PROGRAMMES OF ACTION (NAPAS) FOR CLIMATE CHANGE
![Page 25: A PACIFIC PERSPECTIVE - PreventionWeb · presentation outline 1. a brief overview of the climate change vulnerabilities and risks faced by pacific islands 2. a brief overview of what](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052100/603a17f56e72db50d905b613/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CONNECTING DRM AND CC IN THE PACIFIC
CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION = MEASURES/INTERVENTIONS/ACTIVITIES THAT ASSIST COUNTRIES AND COMMUNITIES ADDRESS THE ISSUES OF VULNERABILITY AND RISKS POSED BY CLIMATE RELATED HAZARDS
DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT = MEASURES/INTERVENTIONS/ACTIVITIES THAT ASSIST COUNTRIES AND COMMUNITIES TO ADDRESS NATURAL AND MANMADE HAZARDS
CCA COVERED IN DRM NAPS
DRM COVERED IN CC NAPAS

MOVING TO INTEGRATION
REGIONAL HIGH LEVEL MINISTERIAL DIALOGUE IN VANUATU
CLIMATE CHANGE ROUND TABLE IN NIUE
AGREED TO THE INTERGRATION OF DRM AND CCA
SOME COUNTRIES ARE DOING THIS THROUGH JOINT NATIONAL ACTION PLANS
![Page 27: A PACIFIC PERSPECTIVE - PreventionWeb · presentation outline 1. a brief overview of the climate change vulnerabilities and risks faced by pacific islands 2. a brief overview of what](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052100/603a17f56e72db50d905b613/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
THE COOK ISLANDS LINKING DRM AND CCA
WHY A JOINT NATIONAL ACTION PLAN?
The recognition that the Cook Islands needs a Climate Change Adaptation Plan
The Cook Islands has a endorsed DRM NAP which includes DRR in Climate Change
Large degree of overlap in DRR and CCA
Public consultations in 2010 during the National Infrastructure Forum and National Environment Forum recommended having 1 Plan to address both DRR and CCA

RATIONALE
IT MADE SENSE TO:
Synergise institutional capabilities
Make more efficient use of human and financial resources
Enhance coordination
Raise the profile of both DRM & CCA
Present a united front
![Page 29: A PACIFIC PERSPECTIVE - PreventionWeb · presentation outline 1. a brief overview of the climate change vulnerabilities and risks faced by pacific islands 2. a brief overview of what](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052100/603a17f56e72db50d905b613/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
PROCESS FOR DEVELOPING A JOINT DRM & CCA NAP
STEP 1 – Seek support of stakeholders
STEP 3 – Integration of proposed CCA activities into the existing DRM NAP matrix (from lit. review)
STEP 4 – Multi-stakeholder workshop to validate and prioritise CCA activities to be included, incl. additional actions
STEP 5 – Costing of all new CCA actions
STEP 6 – Preparation of the new document incl. implementation arrangements, public outreach and M&E
STEP 7 – Circulation of draft for comments
STEP 8 – Preparation of final draft
STEP 9 – Submission of final document to Cabinet
Took place in October 2010
National CC Adaptation Week
TA support from SOPAC, UNDP PC & SPREP
IMPLEMENTATION
STEP 2 – Literature review of CCA documentation

NSDP Goal 6 – A Safe, Secure & Resilient Community
• Broad-based consultation
• OPM, EMCI, NES, SOPAC, SPREP, UNDP
• Building on existing DRM NAP
• Interim unit under OPM
• DRM Emergency Trust Fund
• Sustainable funding for CCA?
• Adaptation Fund Project• EU & AusAid DRM Facility• Sector workplans
