International Cooperation toward National Action Plan

for Adaptation

1. Framework of Adaptation Planning2. Vulnerability Assessment for the Asia and

Pacific Region3. Conclusions

Nobuo Mimura Center for Water Environment Studies

Ibaraki University, Japan

Conditions for Adaptation Planning• Need to know the range and degree of the potential impacts,

and vulnerable sectors and areas(hot spots)

• Need to know what are needed to increase preparedness against the impacts

• Need to know strategy and tactics for adaptation

• The adaptation plan should be incorporated in the mainstream policies such as disaster prevention, environmental management, agriculture, forestry, and fishery, urban infrastructures, and national development plan.

• Adaptation is a part of sustainable development plan in each country

• Adaptation should meet the social acceptance. Therefore, need to raise people’s awareness on the vulnerability

Framework of Adaptation Planning1. Vulnerability Assessment

- Past works including IPCC TAR is an important contribution - So much information, mainly in a qualitative manner- Insufficient to use as a basis for the adaptation planning

2. Needs Assessment- Need to know what are needed for the vulnerable sectors

and areas

3. Adaptation Assessment- Strategies and measures of adaptation

4. National Action Plan for Adaptation

• Need more studies to prepare the adaptation plan, and capacity building for these.
