Disaster and Climate Risk Managementand Capacity Assessment | v


Executive Summary

Background

Uganda has registered several incidences of both natural and manmade disasters. The eff ects of the disasters have been profound on the people, their livelihood and the economy of the country. Management of disasters especially those compounded by climati c changes has been adhoc and there are hardly any preparedness measures in place to miti gate eff ects of the disasters. The Offi ce of the Prime Minister with support from the United Nati ons Development Programme (UNDP) commissioned the Disaster and Climate Risk Management (D/CRM) capacity assessment from De-cember 2013 to April 2014 to guide the development on D/CRM.

Objecti ves

The overall goal of the assessment was to identi fy the key gaps and strengths in D/CRM capacity of the country with a view of addressing and strengthening those D/CRM capacity gaps.

Methods

The country disaster risk management capacity assessment was conducted using a mix of methods. Quanti tati ve and qualitati ve data were collected through review of existi ng documents, key informant interviews, observati on, and stakeholder meeti ng/workshop. The UNDP capacity development framework was adapted and used for the collecti on and analysis of quanti tati ve and qualitati ve data. The researchers were trained and the study instruments pretested. Qualitati ve data were analyzed using content analysis while SPSS and Excel computer packages were used to analyse quanti tati ve data.

Key Findings

Enabling Environment

The study shows that overall, the capacity for enabling environment for D/CRM is considered high for Advocacy rated 3.6, D/CRM policy development rated 3.6 and stakeholder engagement/networking rated 3.5, respecti vely. However, capacity was considered low in the areas of D/CRM budgetary allocati on and appropriate use rated 2.6, functi onal operati ng procedures rated 2.7, research rated 2.8, as well as Monitoring and Evaluati on of D/CRM acti viti es rated 2.9.

Organizati on Level Capacity

At the organizati onal level, capacity was considered high for preparedness rated 3.3, response capacity rated 3.1 and rehabilitati on/recovery capacity rated 3.0 respecti vely. However capacity was considered low in the domain of miti gati on rated 2.9. Under miti gati on domain, capacity was low for risk transfers mechanisms rated 2.2, environmental resource management rated 2.6 and livelihoods resilience and community based disaster risk reducti on (DRR) rated 2.7. Under rehabilitati on/recovery, capacity was low in the area of resett lement initi ati ve rated 2.7, and in the preparedness domain, capacity was rated low in the areas of conti ngency planning rated 2.9, early warning rated

vi | Disaster and Climate Risk Management and Capacity Assessment


3.0 and human resource training rated 3.0. There is inadequate human capacity and skills in D/CRM in local governments and high reliance on the capaciti es of internati onal humanitarian organizati ons and non-government organizati ons. There are inadequate fi nancial resources for Climate Risk Management in both nati onal and local government levels compounded by the limited availability of equipment, e.g. functi onal automati c weather stati ons, to facilitate disaster and climate risk management. Individual Level Capacity

At the individual level, capacity was rated high for availability of staff with knowledge and skills for preparedness rated 3.3 as well as staff with knowledge and skills in response rated 3.3. Overall, human resource availability for D/CRM interventi ons was rated lower 3.1 compared to staff with knowledge and skills rated 3.3.

Conclusions

The study has revealed several gaps and challenges on D/CRM in the country. Under the enabling environment, the domains with the most inadequacies include budgetary allocati on/funding, lack of standard operati ng procedures (SOP) and inadequate monitoring and evaluati on of D/CRM interventi ons.

At the organizati onal level, under preparedness, inadequacies exist in the domain of conti ngency planning, early warning and human resources skilled in D/CRM; under miti gati on inadequacies exist in the areas of (risk transfer mechanisms, microfi nance, inadequate equipment, livelihoods resilience; and under response, there is need to strengthen emergency response eff orts and fi nally under rehabilitati on there are gaps in establishing rehabilitati on initi ati ves.

At the individual level, inadequacies exist in the availability of qualifi ed staff in the fi eld of D/CRM. The main challenges identi fi ed in D/CRM interventi ons were in the areas of limited resource allocati on/funding, limited equipment, low capacity for early warning and response; inadequate human resource capaciti es coupled with staff turnover in insti tuti ons.

The multi plicity of inadequacies in capaciti es suggest the need for government (at central and local levels) and stakeholders to invest in strengthening capaciti es in the various domains of D/CRM (enabling environment, organizati onal and individual levels) for eff ecti ve disaster and climate risk management in the country.

Recommendati ons

Enabling Environment

The study has shown that there is low capacity for budgetary allocati on, Standard Operati on Procedures (SOP), and for Monitoring and Evaluati on of D/CRM. Hence, there is need for government and development partners (stakeholders) to increase funding/budgetary allocati on for D/CRM interventi ons, increase staff availability and capacity through provision of appropriate training opportuniti es, ensure use of SOP, and promote monitoring and evaluati on of D/CRM interventi ons.

Disaster and Climate Risk Managementand Capacity Assessment | vii


Organizati on Level Capacity

Several organizati onal level capacity gaps were identi fi ed. Under miti gati on, capacity was low for risk transfers mechanisms and environmental resource management, livelihoods resilience and community based DRR. There is need, therefore, to strengthen various community livelihood resilience capaciti es including through community sensiti zati on, income generati on and saving schemes, establishment of by laws against environmental degradati on, enforcement of policies on environmental protecti on and establishment of functi onal DRR structures at community level.

Under preparedness, there is need to develop multi -hazard conti ngency plans and business conti nuity plans.

In the realm of response, there is need to strengthen capacity through the acquisiti on of appropriate equipment for search and rescue and response, training on emergency response and acti vati on of the incident command centre at nati onal level i.e. Nati onal Emergency Coordinati on Operati on Centre (NECOC).

Under rehabilitati on/recovery, capacity was low in the area of resett lement initi ati ve. There is need to plan for durable soluti on/exit plan for recovery by empowering communiti es, allocati ng budget for recovery rehabilitati on, and working with communiti es to implement recovery plans.

Individual Level Capacity

There is need to build human resource capacity through appropriate specialized graduate level training. Furthermore, professional courses in specialized D/CRM fi elds should be organised. Gov-ernment should provide funding to support Universiti es to conduct further specialized trainings and research in the fi eld of D/CRM.

1.1 Background and Situati on Analysis

Globally, major disasters linked to natural phenomena are on the increase. According to EM-AT/CRED, fl oods have been the major cause of disasters with an esti mated 94,850,811 people aff ected, followed by drought with 75,489,671 persons aff ected since 2009-2010.

In Africa, the leading causes of disasters are fl oods 27%, drought 18% and a combinati on of epidemics, famine and insect infestati on leading to 39% of the disasters on the conti nent as illustrated in fi gure 1 below.

Figure 1: Typology of natural hazards in Africa

Uganda has registered various incidences of both natural and manmade disasters. These disasters have had profound health and socio-economic impacts. Several areas in Uganda are prone to various types of hazards. The Mt. Elgon and Mt. Ruwenzori sub-region are prone to landslides, fl oods and Seismic acti viti es. The Karamoja sub-region in north eastern Uganda is prone to drought and famine. The Acholi, Lango and West Nile sub-region are just recovering from over 20 years of civil war which led to internal displacement of over 2 million people. Civil unrest in the neighbouring countries of Kenya, South Sudan, Rwanda, Somalia and the Democrati c Republic of Congo (DRC) has led to the infl ux of over 200,000 refugees who are currently living in Uganda. Terrorist att ack by the Al-Shabaab in 2010 resulted into the death of over 75 people, with several others permanently disabled.

In additi on, Uganda lies within the Yellow Fever and Meningiti s epidemic belt. Uganda has also recorded epidemics of various disease including Viral heamorhagic fever (Ebola and Marburg) and Cholera, Hepati ti s E, Yellow Fever, Meningiti s, Polio and Measles outbreaks over the last 10 years.

The management of these disasters has been adhoc. There are hardly any preparedness measures in place to miti gate the eff ects of the disasters. Disaster risk management is defi ned as the systemati c process of using administrati ve directi ves, organizati ons, and operati onal skills and capaciti es to implement strategies, politi cal and improved coping capaciti es in order to lessen the adverse impacts of hazards and the possibility of disaster. Disaster risk management comprises several components including preparedness, miti gati on, preventi on, response rehabilitati on and recovery, as illustrated in Figure 2 below.

Figure 2: Components of Disaster Risk Management

Eff ecti ve disaster and climate risk management contributes towards the building of resilience of nati ons and communiti es to disasters. The Hyogo framework 2005-2015 underscored the need for, and identi fi ed ways of, building the resilience of nati ons and communiti es to disasters. Five priority acti ons illustrated below in the global Hyogo Framework for Acti on 2005-2015 are linked to Disaster Risk Management. (Refer to Annex 7)

2.2 The Aims and Objecti ves

• To identi fy, map and document all the stakeholders in D/CRM and their capaciti es;• Identi fy gaps in D/CRM implementati on in the country;• Develop a road map with cost for strengthening D/CRM; and• Agree on way forward, ti meliness and responsibility for Uganda

3.0 Methods

3.1 Study Design

This was a cross-secti onal study. The assessment focussed on the present status and circumstances of insti tuti ons dealing with D/CRM in the country. Both quanti tati ve and qualitati ve techniques were used in data collecti on.

3.2 Study Populati on

The study populati on consisted of stakeholders working in the fi eld of D/CRM, Climate Change Adapti on, emergency response and community resilience and livelihoods. They comprised programme managers and offi cers of government ministries and departments, local governments-districts and authoriti es, United Nati ons (UN) agencies, internati onal non-governmental organizati ons (NGOs), universiti es, research insti tuti ons, local NGOs, private sector, the media and Civil Society Organisati ons (CSOs). (Refer to the list of respondents in Annex 2)

3.3 Data Collecti on Techniques

The data were collected using both quanti tati ve and qualitati ve techniques. The main techniques of data collecti on used included review of documents, key informant interviews, and stakeholder meeti ngs as sti pulated in secti ons 3.3.1 - 3.3.3 below. Data collecti on instruments were pretested.



3.3.1 Review of Existi ng Documents

Review of key documents was conducted. The key documents reviewed pertained to disaster risk reducti on (DRR) and climate change adaptati on (CCA) strategic framework; monitoring and evaluati ons frameworks, UNDP capacity assessment framework, nati onal D/CRM policies, WHO D/CRM assessment report, Uganda Red Cross strategic plan, Uganda local government Associati on Working paper on DRR among many. (Refer to Annex 5).

3.3.2 Key Informant Interviews

Key informant interviews were conducted. The categories of key stakeholders interviewed included heads of insti tuti ons and D/CRM focal persons in the following organizati on; government ministries, UN agencies, Internati onal NGO, local government and Civil Society Organizati ons (CSOs) as sti pulated in secti on 2.2.1 above 3.1. Key informant interviews used key informant interview guide (See KII guide – Annex1.2). 3.3.3 Stakeholder Meeti ngs

Two validati on workshops were held with stakeholders. The meeti ng was designed as an approach/technique to collect more data and informati on on D/CRM. Furthermore, the meeti ng was used to get feedback on the preliminary fi ndings (Refer to the list of stakeholders during the validati on workshop Annex 3). The parti cipants were invited from government ministries, UN agencies, INGOs, local NGOs, private sector, Academia, media and CSOs.

3.3.4 Observati ons

Observati ons were carried out in various insti tuti ons/organizati ons to check for capacity in terms of availability of equipments for response, warehouses/stores for stock piling food and non-food items for disaster risk management.

3.4 Study Instruments

Two study instruments, qualitati ve and qualitati ve, were used. The quanti tati ve instrument was adapted from the UNDP capacity assessment framework.

Quanti tati ve tool: We used questi onnaires to collect quanti tati ve data. (Refer to the questi onnaire sample in Annex 1.1).

Qualitati ve tool: Key informant interview guide was used to get the percepti ons of respondents regarding D/CRMCA. This was complemented in the conduct of observati on using a checklist and held stakeholder meeti ngs. (Refer to Key informant interview guide in Annex 2.2; and list of parti cipants in the Validati on and Disseminati on Workshops, Annexes 3 and 4 respecti vely).

3.5 Data Management and Analysis

3.5.1 Data Management

To ensure quality in data collecti on, researchers were trained and the instruments pre-tested. The quanti tati ve data collected were checked for completeness, cleaned and captured. Data entry was carried out in Excel spreadsheet. 3.5.2 Data Analysis

The qualitati ve data were transcribed and analysed according to themes using a master sheet. Quanti tati ve data were analyzed using an excel computer package. Quanti tati ve data collecti on instrument was designed according to a rati ng system from 1-5 where 1=Very low, 2=Low, 3=Moderate, High=4 and 5=Very High. Rates were computed for the various variables under each capacity domain.

3.6 Limitati ons

The study had some limitati ons. These included;

1. Reluctance by organizati ons to expose their capacity status;2. Some focal persons were not available, but in the fi eld responding to ongoing emergencies.

Similarly, 19.1% were from local governments.

4.2 Enabling Environment Capacity

Figure 4: Enabling Environment Capacity

The study show that, within the Enabling Environment, advocacy was rated highest at 3.6, followed by capacity to develop D/CRM policies and frameworks at 3.6 and stakeholders’ engagement/networking rated 3.5. Capacity was found to be low for budgetary allocati on for D/CRM rated at 2.6, functi onal Standard Operati ng Procedure (SOP) rated 2.8 and Monitoring and Evaluati on rated at 2.9. Budgets being used appropriately rated at 2.6 and research work on D/CRM rated at 2.8.

Strengths

The enabling environment for D/CRM domain, capacity is considered highest for Advocacy rated 3.6, Policy and frameworks development rated 3.6, and Stakeholder engagement and networking rated 3.5. The reasons for these fi ndings are because advocacy and stakeholder engagement are relati vely easy for several implementi ng partners given the existence of the DRR nati onal platf orm where

several stakeholders regularly meet and engage. Similarly, there exist nati onal policies on D/CRM, however, the main challenge is usually in ensuring eff ecti ve implementati on, as well as, monitoring them using appropriate instruments.

Inadequacies

The study has revealed that D/CRM capacity is considered low in several areas. Budgetary allocati on and appropriate use for D/CRM was rated low 2.6. Financial allocati on for disaster and climate risk management is generally allocated a relati vely low budget by government insti tuti ons and partners. This may be due to low prioriti zati ons of the interventi ons and challenged in the appropriate use of these funds in some public offi ces and by partners. This implies the need for more transparency and accountability by all stakeholders.

Functi onal SOP was rated at 2.8. This suggests that only just over half of the stakeholder groups consulted have existi ng standard operati ng procedures, yet the availability of and functi onality of SOPs is criti cal in guiding quality disaster and climate risk management interventi ons. It is important and recommended that standard operati ng procedures are developed, shared and used by stakeholders in any disaster and climate risk management setti ngs.

Research on D/CRM and CCA was rated 2.8. The rather low rati ng of research in the area of D/CRM is not surprising. Research is an expensive undertaking; in additi on, it’s oft en the mandate of academic and research insti tuti ons. Adequate fi nances should be devoted for and the appropriate organizati ons supported and commissioned to undertake appropriate and relevant researches in the domains of D/CRM.

Monitoring and Evaluati on mechanisms were rated low at 2.9. According to several stakeholders, for many implementi ng partners, while monitoring their work is oft en carried out, evaluati on of the work is rarely done. The reasons for this include lack of planning for evaluati on including the fi nancing of the evaluati on.

Acti on Points

The acti ons points below are considered eff ecti ve if all stakeholders work together in a more coordinated fashion:• Budgetary allocati on towards D/CRM being the lowest at 2.6 in terms of Enabling Environment

rati ng should draw much att enti on by increasing mobilizati on eff orts for funds at all levels.• Develop and ensure SOP is developed and used to guide acti ons/interventi ons in D/CRM based

on the fi ndings from this study which is rated at 2.8. • Research and knowledge development should be encouraged and supported by key stakeholders

in the areas of D/CRM/CCA to facilitate evidence-based advocacy among other interventi ons.• Strengthen mechanisms for monitoring and evaluati on of D/CRM interventi ons at all levels with

harmonized tools.

4.3 Organizati onal Level Capacity

The study shows that at the organizati onal level, capacity for preparedness and response are higher, rated at 3.3 and 3.1 respecti vely compared to capacity for miti gati on and rehabilitati on rated 2.7 and 3.0 respecti vely in the country.



Figure 5: Organizati onal Level Capacity

Strengths

At the organizati onal level, capacity for preparedness for D/CRM was considered highest rated at 3.3. Within the preparedness domain capacity for awareness creati on was the most highly rated at 3.3. This is because of the relati ve ease to undertake element--dness such as awareness creati on which requires relati vely litt le resource investment compared to the other interventi ons e.g. response, human resources training which are more resource intensive.

Capacity for response was also rated high 3.1. This may be att ributed to the fact that several stakeholders including – UN agencies and internati onal NGO have the fi nancial resources or they can easily mobilize funds in the event of any disasters to mount appropriate and eff ecti ve response/interventi ons.

Inadequacies

The study shows that at organizati onal level, miti gati on capacity was rated lowest while under the miti gati on domain, risk transfer mechanisms/micro-insurance rated 2.2 and environmental resource management rated 2.6 exhibited the widest gaps. This may because specifi c risk transfer mechanisms/micro-credit schemes may not be easy to implement in the aff ected communiti es. In additi on, environmental resource management interventi ons may be challenging to implement due to lack of policies and the enactment of the necessary and appropriate laws to enforce their implementati on.

Figure 6: Preparedness Capacity

Under preparedness domain, the capacity for awareness creati on is considered highest, rated 3.3 however conti ngency planning was rated lowest at 2.9.

Strengths

Awareness creati on was found to be the area where there exists highest capacity under the domain of preparedness. The explanati on why awareness creati on is considered highly is because of the relati ve ease of conducti ng it compared to the other elements of preparedness which are more resource intensive and demanding.

Inadequacies

The main areas of defi ciencies in the realm of preparedness were reported in the domains of conti ngency planning rated 2.9, early warning rated 3.0 and human resources training rated 3.0. Conti ngency planning was considered a weak area because of the lack of sources of funding as it was not oft en prioriti zed by both government and other stakeholders (implementi ng partners) working in the fi eld of D/CRM. The fact that conti ngency planning relies on a comprehensive risk assessment which was not done unti l the aspect of hazard, risk, and vulnerability mapping was undertaken contributed to it not being prioriti zed. The methodology for conti ngency planning was not also standardized and so there was no agreement on the quality and standard for said conti ngency plans.

Early warning was menti oned as an area with gaps because of several inadequacies including lack of resources including essenti al equipment for forecasti ng disasters. Human resource gaps identi fi ed in preparedness include the lack of skilled personnel in adequate number to be able to undertake disaster and climate risk management preparedness in various public and private insti tuti ons.

• OPM and should harmonize a nati onal conti ngency plan and methodology for all D/CRM practi ti oners as the study shows that Conti ngency Planning is inadequate at 2.9;

• There is need to develop multi -hazard conti ngency plans (fl oods, drought, fi re, diseases, etc);• Government and development partners should develop and operati onalise business

conti nuity plans (BCP) to support and compliment the Conti ngency Plans.

Early Warning

Early warning is essenti al in terms of preparedness and miti gati on of disasters. To realizeeff ecti veness of Preparedness and miti gati on the following acti ons points are suggested:

• There is need for government and development partners to systemati ze early warning systems into their planning and programming acti viti es;

• Organize specialized trainings for D/CRM practi ti oners on early warning systems; Organize exchange learning visits to countries that have excelled in early warning systems such as Philippines, Malaysia and Hongkong;

• Government through Meteorology departments should set up weather stati ons and automati c network all over the country to facilitate early warning systems;

• OPM should coordinate early warning acti viti es;• There is need to undertake research, document and promote indigenous knowledge in early

preparedness and early response.

Human Resources

Human resources is criti cal for eff ecti ve D/CRM. The following are the acti on points to address the human resource gaps under Preparedness:

• There is need for specialized training in D/CRM (preparedness, miti gati on, response and rehabilitati on/recovery);

• There is need to provide specialized short courses including GIS, CCM/A, search and rescue, conti ngency planning, early warning system, HVCA for DC RM practi ti oners; There is need for strategic alliance/engagement with insti tuti ons of higher learning to coach and mentor D/CRM practi ti oners;

• Provide opportunity for D/CRM practi ti oner for exchange learning visits; and • Invite experts/guest speakers on D/CRM to share experiences.

Miti gati on capacity was considered to be highest for hazard, risk and vulnerability assessments and research and knowledge management. The study has, however, revealed that capacity is considered least for risk transfer transfer/microinsurance mechanisms rated 2.2, environmental resource management 2.6 and livelihood resilience rated and community based D/CRM rated 2.7, respecti vely.



Figure 7: Miti gati on capacity

Strengths

Under miti gati on, capacity was reported to be high in the areas of Hazards and Vulnerability Assessments rated 2.9, and Research and knowledge management rated 2.8. The higher capacity in the domains of hazards and vulnerability assessment, as well as, research and knowledge transfers and disseminati on may be att ributed to their being considered important and organizati ons oft en strive to ensure they are carried out either using their own or hired specialists prior to mounti ng interventi ons. The fi ndings of assessments and research and knowledge management are criti cal in helping steer implementati on of the D/CRM acti viti es.

Inadequacies

Several areas of capacity inadequacies were identi fi ed including in the areas of risk transfer transfer/micro-insurance rated 2.2, environmental resource management rated 2.6; livelihood resilience rated 2.7 and community-based DRR rated 2.7, respecti vely. The low capacity for risk transfers and micro-insurance is att ributable to the lack of resources including fi nances and human resources to eff ect these interventi ons. Environmental resource management capacity may be lacking owing to the several investments required in the domain including fi nancial, material, human and equipment required for implementati on. Capacity for livelihood resilience may be low because of limited individual and community and organizati onal investments in various socio-economic and Agricultural undertakings. Finally, the low community based DRR capacity needs to be enhanced through a multi pronged support mechanism including community sensiti zati on and strengthening community leadership structures to eff ecti vely implement D/CRM.

Acti on Points

Livelihoods and Risk Transfer Mechanisms

• Enhance food security measures by all stakeholders;• Climate change adaptati on and miti gati on measures (small scale irrigati on and water

harvesti ng schemes);• Diversifi cati on of livelihoods measures (including crop producti on, livestock, as well as trade);• Supporti ng community resilience including training. Constructi on of water resources that

are climate risk proof;• Multi -hazards Insurance policy to support (drought, fl oods, pests, and fi res) disasters; and• Revolving food stocking system.

Community-Based DRR

• Establish DRR functi onal structures – committ ees at community level;• Establish awareness creati on – community sensiti zati on on disaster and climate change risk

management (e.g. drama groups); and• Coordinati on of acti viti es by district DDMC and OPM.

Environmental Management

• Establish by-laws against environmental degradati on and bad practi ces such as charcoal, bush burning, etc.;

• Undertake aff orestati on to increase carbon capture and sequestrati on and help improve biodiversity;

• Enforcing policy on environmental protecti on e.g. tree planti ng, wetland management, polluti on, etc.;

• Establish by laws against environmental degradati on e.g. charcoal, bush burning, etc.; and• Support waste management (recycle, collecti on, etc.) to minimize drainage blockade leading

to fl ooding, etc.

The study has revealed that capacity for rapid assessment was rated 3.0, however capacity for emergency response was rated higher at 3.4. This suggests the need to further strengthen rapid assessment capacity as well as emergency response eff orts.

Strengths and Inadequacies

Under response, capacity was reported to be higher for emergency response rated 3.3 compared to rapid assessment rated 3.0. The plausible explanati on is that implementi ng partners may be investi ng more in emergency response – to save lives than in undertaking studies to provide evidence for response. Hence, rapid assessment is less prioriti zed as a vital acti vity for investment. Implementi ng partners oft en use the term ”quick and dirty” for rapid assessment which suggests that it is a crude exercise and not considered very important. Moreover, it may also require that implementi ng organizati on have to hire external consultants at a cost.



Figure 8: Response capacity

Acti on Points

• Rapid assessment is a vital initi al step in emergency response and should be prioriti zed and undertaken systemati cally and with a clear methodology.

• Training courses in research methodology e.g. quanti tati ve and qualitati ve research techniques are recommended for in service personnel in various organizati ons.

• Acquisiti on of equipment for rescue and response acti viti es e.g. earth moving equipment, GPS, ambulance, helicopters, etc.;

• Stockpiling of supplies – food and non food items – drugs, vaccines, etc.; • Establishment of warehouses/stores in disaster prone areas;• Training in emergency response e.g. fi rst aids, search and rescue, etc.; and• Acti vati ng and operati onalising incident command centre at nati onal level e.g. NECOC.

The study has revealed that capacity for needs assessment is higher 3.3 compared to rehabilitati on initi ati ves rated 2.7 which may be att ributed to the costs associated with the later.

Strengths

During the recovery phase, the study has revealed that stakeholders have higher capacity for needs assessment rated 3.3 compared to capacity for resett lement initi ati ves. The reason for higher capacity for needs assessment may be att ributed to the fact that this requires signifi cantly less fi nancial, material and human resources.

Inadequacies

Capacity for rehabilitati on initi ati ves was reported by stakeholders as lower rated 2.7. The explanati on for this fi nding is that rehabilitati on initi ati ves require several inputs including planning for and signifi cant material requirement which the various implementi ng partners may not have.

Acti on Points

• Integrate durable soluti ons into planning and programming of recovery/rehabilitati on acti viti es such empowering communiti es to plan own foods under self-help initi ati ves;

• Allocati on of budget at nati onal and local levels for recovery and rehabilitati on;• Work with communiti es in designing and implementi ng recovery plans; and• Awareness creati on on DRR to miti gate impact of disaster.

4.4 Individual Level Capacity

Table 2: Individual level Capacity



The individual level capacity most highly rated were staff with knowledge and skills in response and preparedness rated at 3.3 and staff with knowledge and skills in miti gati on, and rehabilitati on rated 3.2, as well as, availability of specialised staff for D/CRM 3.2. Overall, human resource availability for D/CRM interventi ons was rated lower at 3.1 compared to staff knowledge and skills rated 3.3.

Strengths

The study has revealed that individual level capacity most highly rated, were; staff having knowledge and skills in response and preparedness rated 3.3 each, and staff having knowledge and skills in miti gati on, and rehabilitati on rated 3.2 as well as the availability of staff specialized in D/CRM rated 3.2, respecti vely. The availability of staff specialized in D/CRM was, however, more confi ned to organizati ons having expatriate staff but with rather few specialized nati onals and locally trained staff .

Inadequacies

Several areas of capacity gaps in D/CRM were identi fi ed including having few staff members qualifi ed in D/CRM rated 3.0. This suggests the need to have more staff in various organizati ons to be trained and qualifi ed to undertake specialised D/CRM interventi ons. In additi on, the study revealed lack of appropriate trainings for personnel to undertake D/CRM programme implementati on. Moreover it was menti oned that the training insti tuti ons in the country do not off er specialised training courses in disaster and climate change risk management. Another area of gap was the lack of availability of appropriate equipment e.g. weather forecasti ng equipment, and various health faciliti es lack diagnosti cs tools, these aff ect disaster and climate change risk interventi ons during various phases of disaster.

Acti on Points

• There is need for specialized professional courses on D/CRM (preparedness, miti gati on, response and rehabilitati on/recovery);

• There is need to provide specialized short courses including GIS, CCM/A, search and rescue, conti ngency planning, early warning system, HVCA for D/CRM practi ti oners; There is need for strategic alliance/engage with insti tuti ons of higher learning to coach and mentor D/CRM practi ti oners;

• Provide opportunity for D/CRM practi ti oner for exchange learning visits;• Provide opportuniti es for experts on D/CRM/Guest speakers to share experiences; Establish

curriculum for D/CRM from Primary to University level educati on/training; Provide career guidance to enti ce and encourage students to specialize in D/CRM; and Moti vate existi ng staff in D/CRM e.g. through provision of equipment, sponsorships, short courses, awards, and fi nancial awards.

4.5 Crosscutti ng Issues relati ng to D/CRM Capacity

Under crosscutti ng issues, coordinati on was rated highest 3.5, followed by resource mobilizati on rated 3.3 and informati on system management rated 3.3 respecti vely. However capacity was con-sidered low in the following areas - availability of equipments, engendering D/CRM, and sustaina-bility planning for D/CRM.



Figure 10: Cross Cutti ng Issues

Strengths

The study has shown that under cross cutti ng issues, stakeholders have reported having capacity for Coordinati on rated 3.5, Resource mobilizati on rated 3.3, and Informati on system management rated 3.3. Availability of capacity for coordinati on within various organizati ons is expected since in the fi eld of D/CRM, coordinati on of acti viti es is a criti cal acti vity and all stakeholders parti cipate in various coordinati on meeti ngs. It also enhances achievement of the goals of D/CRM. Similarly, all stakeholders have to look for resources (fi nancial) hence resource mobilizati on is a vital skill that staff in organizati ons must have in order to enable their organizati ons implement acti viti es in the fi eld.

Inadequacies

At the organizati onal level, inadequacies were reported in the areas of establishment of sustainability plan for D/CRM rated 2.4, availability of D/CRM equipment rated 2.5 and mainstreaming of Gender into D/CRM rated 2.9, respecti vely. The lack of sustainability plans for D/CRM within stakeholder organizati ons refl ects the fact that most of the organizati ons are working in emergencies and lack sustainability and long term exit plans. It is vital that organizati ons draw plans for sustaining the interventi ons/acti viti es that they are undertaking in the various setti ngs for the good of the communiti es they serve. The lack of mainstreaming gender into disaster and climate risk management is a gap that was menti oned by several stakeholders. This is due to several factors including availability of policy and personnel within various organizati ons. Finally as discussed earlier, the lack of equipment for D/CRM acti viti es hampers eff ecti ve response. There is need to plan for and secure appropriate equipment in the fi eld.

Acti on Points

Equipment

• Needs for government and stakeholders to invest in equipment for preparedness and response – Earth moving, GIS and Ambulance services for emergency health services delivery; and

• Allocate budget at nati onal and district levels to acquire appropriate equipment periodically (at district level through the district development plan).

Gender• Mainstream gender in D/CRM planning, implementati on and monitoring across all levels and

by all stakeholders;• Ensure there is a gender focal person at nati onal, and community level to specifi cally deal

with gender related issues;• Allocate budget for gender – government and development partners; Train D/CRM

practi ti oners in gender mainstreaming; and• Research on gender and disaster and climate risk management.

Sustainability

• Government and development partners should ensure availability of sustainability plans in any D/CRM project or programme;

• Work with local government in implementi ng and monitoring projects/programmes to ensure sustainability;

• Work with communiti es in implementi ng and monitoring projects/programmes to ensure sustainability; and

• Ensure/design exit strategy in any D/CRM projects and programmes.

Climate change adaptati on

• Training in CCA/M;• Budget for CCA/M;• Operati onalise and popularize CCA Policy at all levels- nati onal, district and community level;• Improve coordinati on of CCA acti viti es;• Strengthen community structures for CCA to build community resilience; and• Support research in CCA/M.

Resource mobilizati on and ti mely implementati on

• Early preparedness in terms of - human resource fi nance and equipment;• Budget allocati on for early preparedness and early response;;• Need for emergency funds, readily available without any red tapes – bureaucracy; Specialized

staff on standby for emergency response 24/7; and• Moti vati on for staff working in emergencies.



5.0 Lessons LearnedSeveral issues were menti oned as criti cal for eff ecti ve D/CRM by the various stakeholders.

5.1: Preparedness is key to disaster and climate risk management:

Early preparedness and early response save lives and money as well. It is more costly to respond to disasters than to prepare.

5.2 Empowering local governments:

Disasters are local. Hence response if well conducted by local people/communiti es is quicker, rather than waiti ng for central government response which may take ti me. It is therefore prudent to empower the local communiti es in disaster prone areas, and ensure they are equipped to handle emergencies in their own setti ngs.Therefore, community-based capacity building is essenti al and should be embarked upon.

5.3 Coordinati on is essenti al to D/CRM:

Coordinati on is criti cal in D/CRM interventi ons as it contributes towards cost reducti on and minimising duplicati on of services .

5.4 Partnership is important in D/CRM:

It was also emphasized during the stakeholder meeti ngs that partnership is criti cal in D/CRM to generate synergies and strengths from other organizati ons. For example, those weak in preparedness may be strong in response, or in rehabilitati on/recovery and vice-versa.

5.5 Standardizati on of D/CRM tools:

It was learned during the capacity assessment that working with standardized tools brings about harmonized results. Diff erent tools may be confusing and create challenges in the interpretati on of fi ndings.

5.6 Mainstreaming D/CRM:

Mainstreaming D/CRM in all government Ministries,Departments and Agencies will help a great deal in miti gati ng disasters in the country as many stakeholders plan for and contribute towards D/CRM. Gender issues should be clearly identi fi ed in all D/CRM acti viti es and adaptati on opti ons.

5.7 Research and informati on sharing:

Conducti ng regular researches brings in new knowledge and informati on towards more eff ecti ve D/CRM interventi ons. It was noted that several organizati ons have done good research work, however, they have neither disseminated widely nor published their fi ndings.



6.0 Challenges

6.1 Human resources

There are several challenges with human resources for D/CRM. These include:• Inadequate number of skilled human resources required for D/CRM programme implementati on

at various government (central and local) levels and within various implementi ng insti tuti ons;• Inadequate specialized human resources for D/CRM in the areas e.g. climate change adaptati on

(CCA); and• High staff turnover for those working in the area of D/CRM at ministry level.

6.2 Funding

Funding present signifi cant challenges to D/CRM implementati on due to:• Insuffi cient resource allocati on for D/CRM as well as low resource mobilizati on mechanisms at

various ministry and local (district) government levels;• Politi cal will should be made practi cal by parliament and Ministry of Finance through allocati on

of funds for D/CRM; and• Lack of emergency funds which is frustrati ng the Department of Disaster Preparedness and

Management to respond and coordinate emergencies in the country.

6.3 Equipment

Disaster and climate risk management is aff ected by limited availability of equipment and infrastructure (weather stati ons) for disaster preparedness, miti gati on and response interventi ons.

6.4 Early warning and response

The main challenges include:• Low capacity of early warning systems thus leading to slow response; and• Being reacti onary than proacti ve in disaster risk management.

6.5 Cross-cutti ng challenges

• Lack of D/CRM law to operati onalize the existi ng D/CRM policy in Uganda;• Inadequate knowledge of damage and loss analysis. For example, there has been no esti mate of

economic loss of Bududa landslides and Kasese fl oods disasters; and• Low capacity to operati onalize the full cyclic D/CRM interventi ons.



7.0 Overall Recommendations7.1 Enabling Environment Capacity

These fi ndings suggest the need for strengthening eff orts towards enhancing disaster and climate risk management by the various stakeholders/organizati ons:• Integrate disaster and climate risk management in all social, economic and environmental

policies and development agenda;• Develop and ensure SOPs are used to guide acti ons/interventi ons in D/CRM;• Strengthen appropriate and ti mely risk communicati on at nati onal and local levels to allow

eff ecti ve adaptati on and disaster and climate risk management;• Increase mobilizati on eff orts for funds towards D/CRM. Lobby for budgetary allocati on within

organizati ons for D/CRM interventi ons. Lobby donors and partners to raise funds and resources towards disaster and climate risks management;

• Strengthen mechanisms for monitoring and evaluati on of D/CRM interventi ons; and• Train more personnel to specialize in the fi eld of D/CRM.

7.2 Organizati on Capacity

These fi ndings suggest the need for strengthening organizati on capacity in various areas:

Human resources capacity

• Provide graduate and post-graduate specialized training programmes within Universiti es to improve D/CRM interventi ons.

Equipment and Infrastructure

Ensure availability of appropriate equipment forpersonnel e.g. for CCA/M, response etc to improve D/CRM;

• Provide specialized IT equipment at various levels including nati onal, districts and to organizati ons involved in D/CRM;

• Revamp/rehabilitate existi ng weather stati ons and build new ones in districts/regions without nearer stati ons and

• Emphasis be put on building climate risk proof houses/infrastructures.

Stakeholders

Strengthen partnerships to enhance learning in various D/CRM domains and practi ces.

Research• Support research eff orts in various relevant and topical areas that infl uence evidence base

practi ce and policy development in D/CRM; and• Establish agenda and research desk within organizati ons including ministries, districts, UN

agencies and NGOs.



Conti ngency planning

• Develop conti ngency plans at nati onal and district levels.

7.3 Individual Level Capacity

The fi ndings suggest the need to strengthen individual capacity through provision of;

• Specialised graduate training for D/CRM. These courses should be provided in reputable insti tuti ons of learningand must be accredited.

• Short training courses in D/CRM. These certi fi cate courses should address areas of gaps including e.g. conti ngency planning, early warning, and basic introducti on to D/CRM, Hazards and Vulnerability Assessments etc.

• Capacity building in disaster and climate change risk management and empowerment should be tailored/targeted at grassroots level for community extension workers and other services providers.

7.4 Cross-cutti ng issues

• D/CRM law: There is need for the Government of Uganda to expedite the process of enacti ng the D/CRM law in order to operati onalize the existi ng D/CRM policy.

• Damage and Loss Analysis (DALA): There is need for government and development partners to begin calculati ng the economic loss emanati ng from disasters in Uganda.

• Disaster Risk Reducti on Parliamentary Forum should always be engaged with the Nati onal DRR Platf orm meeti ngs and be given the advocacy agenda to help them lobby in Parliament, most especially on budget allocati on, emergency funding and laws related to disasters.

• There is need for research on Gender and Disaster Risk Management in Uganda to understand the gender perspecti ves relati ng to disasters.

• The Disaster Risk Management Capacity Assessment (D/CRMCA) should be extended in the near future to cover the sub nati onal level stakeholders including the 112 districts in Uganda.

• The D/CRMCA fi nal report should be launched and disseminated widely to stakeholders in Uganda as well as the D/CRM nati onal policy.

• The D/CRMCA and capacity development plan should be used by government and development partners as a working paper for the next fi ve (5) years (2014-2017).



8.0 ConclusionsThe study has revealed several gaps and challenges in D/CRM in the country. Under the enabling environment, the domains with the most inadequacies included funding/budgetary allocati on, lack of SOP and inadequate monitoring and evaluati on of D/CRM interventi ons.

At the organizati onal level, under preparedness, inadequacies exits in several areas and mainly in the domain of conti ngency planning, early warning and human resources skilled in D/CRM; under miti gati on inadequacies exist in the areas of risk transfer mechanisms, microfi nance, inadequate equipment, livelihoods resilience; and under response, there is need to strengthen emergency response eff orts and fi nally under rehabilitati on there are gaps in establishing rehabilitati on initi ati ves.

At the individual level, inadequacies exist in having qualifi ed staff in D/CRM.

The main challenges identi fi ed in D/CRM interventi ons were in the areas of limited resource allocati on/funding, limited equipment for D/CRM for specialised response capaciti es; low capacity for early warning; inadequate human resource capaciti es/coupled with staff turnover in insti tuti ons hence there is need to conti nuous training/capacity building.

Therefore the multi plicity of inadequacies in capaciti es suggest the need for the government (at nati onal and local levels) and stakeholder to invest in strengthening capaciti es in the various domains of D/CRM spanning the enabling environment, organizati onal and individual levels for eff ecti ve disaster and climate risk management interventi ons in the country.
