1 Investing in Community-Based Resilience of Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes Rio+20 Side Event The Satoyama Initiative and the Green Economy 18 June, 2012

2 Global Challenges for Sustainable Development towards 2050 Economic 70% increase in food production needed Energy access for all Socio-cultural 50% increase in world population compared to 10 years ago Environmental At least 50% reduction on GHG needed Increase in extreme weather events

3 Integrated Development at National, Sub-national and Local levels Low Emissions Climate Resilient Strategies National Formulation of Green, Low-Emission and Climate Resilient Development Strategies Subnational State-Level or municipal LECRDS. Local Productive Landscape Approach to develop climate resilient community through sustainable livelihoods, access to financing and markets 3

4 Moving towards Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes 4 UNDP and the landscape approach: An effective way of mainstreaming biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, while providing sustainable livelihoods, in low-carbon development that maximizes resilience to climate change.

5 The Landscape Approach: biodiversity dependent ecosystem services for low emissions, climate resilient development multiple use protected area low input agriculture soil conservation community forest - reforestation protected area soil conservation protected area multicropping soil conservation low input agriculture restricted use Introduction to the landscape approach low input agriculture Philippines

6 Diverse landscape challenges require locally adapted solutions Ethiopia Ghana Slovakia Ghana

7 COMDEKS Strategic Framework UNDP Capacity Development support at the country level Local Planning Community consultation and Landscape Strategy Development Tools and Methodologies Piloting indicators for capturing landscape resilience Community Grants Case Study Development Up-scaling Coherent national and sub-national development policies and strategies Capacity Development Facilitating Knowledge and Learning Policy support Enhancing Resilience of Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes

8 COMDEKS: Partnership Arrangements IPSI COMDEKS <MOEJ SCBD UNU -UNDP> Case studies Dissemination Replication and Upscalingthrough workshops and website -Knowledge Generation -Dissemination Strategy Knowledge Collection Examples from relevant s Example from IPSI s Knowledge Management In-depth review of the s Identify good practices & key challenges Promote selfreliant efforts of community Community Development Country A Country B Country C Small Grants Making (UNDP implemented scheme, e.g. GEF-SGP) From IPSI members and other sources

9 UNDP small grants delivery mechanism: a fast and effective way to empower communities & catalyze change Multistakeholder steering committee strategy and programming Knowledge channeled to other communities and to policy makers Local Communities develop and submit proposals Projects evaluated and lessons learned Decentralized decision making mechanism UNDP in-country support Funds delivered to communities and s implemented 9

10 Implementation Status The Community Development and Knowledge Management for the Satoyama Initiative Project Goal To develop sound biodiversity management and sustainable livelihood activities with local communities to maintain, rebuild, and revitalize socio-ecological production landscapes (SEPLs) Countries First Phase: Brazil, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Grenada, Fiji, India, Malawi, Nepal, Slovakia, and Turkey Timeframe and Budget Japan Biodiversity Fund contributing with 2 million USD a year starting in 2011, with the scope of expanding to a 5-year partnership programme Status First phase: currently under implementation in 10 countries

11 Capturing resilience in socio-ecological production landscapes Indicators for Resilience in SEPLs: on going collaboration between UNDP, UNU-IAS and Bioversity International. The indicators are currently being applied and tested in the COMDEKS sites to help measure and understand the resilience of target landscapes. Experiences and lessons learned to be gained through the practical application of the indicators are envisaged to be compiled and analyzed for further improvement of the indicators Piloting approach will help UNDP and other IPSI members to refine the overall approach and methodology for measuring resilience.
