Extreme weather conditions:

Floods & mass movements

Droughts

Heath waves (long-term)

Thunderstorms & Flashfloods

Climate change in Croatia during 20th century and at the beginning of 21st century


Drought 2003 – aftermath - US$ 330 M economic damage

30-50 % decrease crop output

Unspecified damage to freshwater fish industry

Widening of the forest fires area from the coast to the

inland (central Istria, Lika region, inland part of Dalmatia)

Extension of the wildfires season (in 1990-es from the

end of May to the end of August, now from February to

the end of September)

The same year, electricity production from hydro power plant's in Croatia dropped 20 % – cost was 96 mil EUR to compensate losses

Extreme weather events in period 2000 – 2007 resulted in an average annual costs of 176 mil EUR for agriculture – amount higher that amount paid for incentives in agriculture within that period

NP 3rd Conference Conclusions:

In order to adapt to climate change, which the Republic of Croatia and

the region is exposed to, it is necessary to increase investment in

climate modeling, forecasting and analysis to support the sectoral

planning in the sectors facing this risk.

Extreme weather conditions and associated major accidents and

disasters are becoming reality in the Republic of Croatia. In order to

adapt to climate change, which the Republic of Croatia and the region

is exposed to, it is necessary to increase investment in climate

modeling, forecasting and analysis, to support sectorial planning in

sectors faced with risk. It is necessary to include elements of disaster

risk reduction while developing the climate change adaptation strategy.


Post Hyogo – for the 4th conference: How to develop new programme - CCA & DRR issues:

- Science & DRR

- Education for DRR & CCA

- DRR in national CCA strategy

- DRR in local communities

- Spatial planning, CCA & DRR

- Role of the NGO in DRR

- DRR &CCA and media

- Individual participation in DRR

EUROPEAN FORUM FOR

DISASTER RISK REDUCTION

2011 - 2012


3rd Annual Meeting of the European Forum for

Disaster Risk Reduction, Dubrovnik, 1 - 3 Oct 2012 Summary

27 countries

(25 countries in 2011)

60 participants

(50 participants in 2011)

21 National Platforms; 35

countries with HFA Focal

point


Agreed on publishing the survey outcome on reviewing national adaptation plans/strategy issues related to disaster risk reduction.

Working Group tasked by EFDRR to:

Accompany the work on CCA and DRR up to 2015;

Continue to update the EFDRR on development in European Countries on CCA and framework

Share the report with the national CCA community

Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk

Reduction (Working Group 1)


Recommendation:

National Platforms to hold national discussions on Post-2015, Rio+20 outcomes and ensure that national stakeholders dealing with the different processes participate

Experience shared from:

Knowledge Sharing and Outcomes of Rio+20, IPCC SREX

WG1 undertook a survey to all European HFA focal points and NPs coordinators to find out if nations include in their adaptation plans/strategy issues related to disaster risk reduction

Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk

Reduction (Working Group 1)


The Future We Want

188. We stress the importance of stronger interlinkages among

disaster risk reduction, recovery and long-term development

planning, and call for more coordinated and comprehensive

strategies that integrate disaster risk reduction and climate

change adaptation considerations into public and private

investment, decision-making and the planning of humanitarian

and development actions, in order to reduce risk, increase

resilience and provide a smoother transition between relief,

recovery and development. In this regard, we recognize the

need to integrate a gender perspective into the design and

implementation of all phases of disaster risk management.
