3 Experiences from Thailand Problems mentioned in public hearings (Sep 2014) CLIMATE CHANGE: people realize effects of the climate change Roland 28/11/2014 Treitler (AV), Falk Momber Ecosystem based Adaptation Seite 3
4 Experiences from Thailand Problems mentioned in public hearings (Sep 2014) DEFORESTATION: correlation between land coverage with forest and floods Roland 28/11/2014 Treitler (AV), Falk Momber Ecosystem based Adaptation Urbanization: 50% of the people live already in urban areas Agricultural overuse: effects on soil and water quality Seite 4
5 Experiences from Thailand Problems mentioned in public hearings (Sep 2014) LACK OF COOPERATION: public/public - public/private Roland 28/11/2014 Treitler (AV), Falk Momber Ecosystem based Adaptation Seite 5
6 Experiences from Thailand Solutions mentioned in public hearings (Sep 2014) Coordinated Water Planning addressing lack of coordination Reforestation addressing deforestation and agricultural overuse Combination of grey and green infrastructure Roland 28/11/2014 Treitler (AV), Falk Momber Ecosystem based Adaptation Seite 6
7 Experiences from Thailand Conclusion of the public hearings (Sep 2014) Civil society is aware of the real problems It is even able to suggest good solutions for the addressed problems (Intuitive) understanding of cause-effect relations Roland 28/11/2014 Treitler (AV), Falk Momber Ecosystem based Adaptation Seite 7
8 Experiences from Thailand Background Information on Tha Di Watershed Causes for floods and droughts Deforestation Inefficient grey infrastructure Mismanagement of land use Lack of cooperation between local stakeholders and responsible authorities Lack of financial support Case Study: Ecosystem-based Adaptation in the Tha Di Watershed Seite 8
9 Living Weirs in the Tha Di Watershed Approach Experiences from Thailand Living weirs concept derived from local knowledge Bottom-up approach and participation from all stakeholders in the construction process Community involvement with governmental and private institutions (such as DWR, RID, Lion Club, Self-Reliance Institute) Scientific assessment and support from international and local institutions (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Walailak University) In accordance with The King s Sufficient Economy Theory Case Study: Ecosystem-based Adaptation in the Tha Di Watershed Seite 9
10 Experiences from Thailand Living Weirs in the Tha Di Watershed Benefits Low cost weir structure based on tree roots Ground water recharge leads to higher production yield Drawbacks Longer construction period No research on impacts so far Case Study: Ecosystem-based Adaptation in the Tha Di Watershed Seite 10
