Introduction• Write your answers to the introduction

questions on the post-it notes in front of you. • Only one idea per post-it.• You can use as many as you need.

1. What do you want to get out of this session?

2. What kind of work are you engaged in? Ex. planner? implementer? Researcher? Work with communities? National decision-making?

You just used one of the key techniques

of our participatory workshop:

- Sharing individual ideas as a group

- Clustering similar ideas together

- Identifying themes arising from the

group

Context

• Changing climate need for adaptation

• Increased international funds for climate change

• Uncertainty yet need to act• Simplified tools needed for immediate

actions by governments• What adaptation action are needed to build

resilience?

Definitions

Resilience– “the capacity of a system to experience

shocks while retaining essentially the same function, structure, feedbacks, and therefore identify”

– Moving towards desired characteristics

– Adaptation as building resilience

1. Of what2. To what

3. Over what time frame4. From whose

perspective(Helfgott, 2011)

Page 7: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

• Identity should be defined by those within the system in question

• Culture and identity are fluid

• Resilience depends on perspective

• Need to understand what is really important to communities

(Gary Larson, 1984)

“Anthropologists! Anthropologists!”

Page 8: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

Prioritizing and costing adaptation options - integral to planning and policy

Decision makers need tools that:1. select adaptation options and guide distribution of

funds effectively, efficiently, and appropriately

2. prioritize interventions from scientific and social perspectives

3. scale up processes, not prescriptions

4. take into account local context

5. measure impact reflective of on the ground realities

Page 9: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

Need to understand costs and benefits

Currently: Top-down studies often underestimate adaptation costs and benefits

Goal: Develop a bottom-up costing framework to complement existing approaches to inform policy

Participatory Social Return on Investment (PSROI)

Community-Based Climate Change Adaptation Prioritization, Planning, and Costing

PSROI is a novel framework that combines innovative participatory

methods and the SROI costing framework

Core Principles• Systemic approach

• Stakeholder-centric

• Participatory prioritization

• Strength based - matches CC interventions with local resources

• Plan from a future Vision not a current or future Problem

Page 15: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

Uses of PSROI• Guide selection and planning of community

interventions• Track 1 Workshop: identify local values, adaptive

capacity (responses/strengths), priorities • Pilot studies to date have:

– assessed climate change adaptation actions, but can be a generally planning tool for development

– forecasted impact of adaptation (not

• Could use for evaluation and long term monitoring• Can assess ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ interventions• Community level currently – could be developed for

higher levels, limit = representation

THEORY track one

Integrated pluralistic theoretical and methodological frameworks:

(1) Resilience and Adaptation Theory

(2) Systems Thinking

(3) Strength-Based Development

Asset-based community development

Why we need participatory approaches

Risks of failing to understand the context of intervention and identify appropriate objectives:

• Interventions resulting in unexpected adverse outcomes

• Wasting resources on unachievable operational goals

• Inability to measure effectiveness(Helfgott, 2011)

Page 21: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Participation

• The ladder of participation

• What level are you comfortable with for your project?

(Arnstein, 1969)

Participants can advise but not decide

Stakeholder Analysis:

(1) Gather basic demographic information

(2) Identify key informants and ‘gate keepers’

(3) Identify different groups within community

(4) Identify marginalized groups

(5) Invite representative group to workshop

(6) Continue analysis throughout workshop - include missed sectors in interviews

WORKSHOP PART 3: PlanningBack Casting – How do we reach our vision of the future?

Activity: List adaptation strategies and tools which can take us from where we are now to where we want to go (3 groups, 20 minutes reflection ,40 minutes clustering)

ASK: Who will decide which strategies who uses? Why?

ASK: Where will we seek knowledge?

ASK: Where should resources come from to implement each strategy?

ASK: How do you see these interventions being situated in space and time?

Activity: Brainstorm all of the possible positive and negative impacts (incl. environmental) of these strategies, assign costs, identify barriers and opportunities ( 1hour)

“SROI is an approach to understanding and managing the social, economic and environmental costs and benefits of a project, organization or policy. It is based on stakeholders and use financial proxies to reveals the value of outcomes that do not have direct market values”

(Nicholls, Lawlor et al. 2009)

Page 45: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

TRACK 2

• SROI is NOT: A new economic theory (CBA, Proxies, NMV)

• SROI IS: A new way of gathering and displaying information for decision making

Page 46: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

• Semi-structured interviews to collect data directly from stakeholders

• IMPACT MAP to store data associated with each stakeholder group

• PSROI can be modified both to simplify the framework and to add components.

• This section focuses on additional components that could be explored to further develop and add depth to the framework as a prioritization, planning, and costing tool for climate change adaptation interventions.

1. Introduce ‘menus’ of climate smart adaptation options to assist with community prioritization

2. Experiment with when and at what levels to incorporate technical information on climate change and interventions - do more with community

3. Community exchanges to understanding outcomes4. Incorporate scenarios into costing5. Cost interactions between interventions

Challenges & Potential Solutions

Time intensiveBreak up process

PSROI vs. ‘PSROI light’

Criteria of when to do what steps

CapacityLocal facilitators are ideal, intervention

specialists

Create local training and learning networks

ScopeSet clear boundaries

in workshopCould experiment

with a menu approach

Score doesn’t say it all!Cost what you can,

but even proxies have issues

Emphasize qualitative components

PSROI ‘lite’FAST – SIMPLE – SCALABLE

1. Keep key steps in workshop, change components

2. Bring in menu for technical design, limit community design

3. Cost from national level and limit local costing to verification of outcomes / inputs / indicators

1. Cost key variables

2. Cost locally when outcomes are new

4. Only cost locally when local knowledge is base of intervention, limited understanding of intervention at national level.

Towards a Community Involvement Protocol

Science to Cultivate Change

Conclusions• PSROI has immediate value for

• getting at the heart of what communities desire for

their future and what is needed for them to get there

• planning adaptation interventions to utilize allocated

funding

• evaluating impact over time of interventions

• its transferability to different regions, partners, and

governance structures

• local level assessments

• empowering communities through the process

Page 71: PSROI seminar presentation for PNUMA climate change vulnerability workshop

Science to Cultivate Change

Conclusions

• Bottom-up vs. Top-down costing

• Include local communities as much as

possible in costing, but don’t always need to

conduct entire costing at the local level

• Research needed to finalize a protocol describing

when local information is essential for costing

• Community level planning and costing must

be integrated with cross level and cross

sector planning
