ADB Officer: Herath Gunatilake, MKAE 3. Request Date: September Executing Agency: Canadian Centre of International Development and Cooperation (CECI) will be the executing agency of the project. Kyoto University Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies (GSGES) will be the implementing organization, with CECI assisting in project implementation in its capacity as the executing agency. Provincial, district governments, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (IMH) and Hue University will be the other cooperating partners. 5. Types of Interventions: Field implementation and action research through analytical study and pilot interventions in Central Viet Nam to cope with natural disasters like flood and typhoons. The project aims to establish linkages among poverty, environment and disasters. The key research question is vulnerability and risk reduction through appropriate actions, and increasing community resilience. In the current project, climate change issue is the environmental dimensions, which is linked to disasters in terms of flood and typhoons, affecting the lives and livelihoods of the rural population, and thereby increasing poverty. The proposed project will analyze the climate change patterns and its adaptation at community level, through: 1) data analysis on climate change and its impacts in the form of disasters, 2) undertaking awareness programs, 3) initiating participatory planning process, and 4) implementing demonstration sub-projects in the pilot study area. The findings will be analyzed to develop a climate change adaptation model, which can be used in other areas of the DMCs. 6.

The MARD and IMH will provide advice on the proejct activities and overall proejct direction. C. PROPOSED SUBPROJECT 1. Background and Rationale: Situated in the tropical monsoon zone close to the typhoon centre of the western pacific, Viet Nam is one of the most disaster prone countries in the Mekong region. Currently, 70% of the 73 million people in Viet Nam live in disaster-prone areas, with the majority of the people in the Central region. Losing crops and homes in floods and storms keeps many rural Vietnamese trapped in a cycle of poverty. This has been 1

2 intensified in the recent years with major floods occuring more frequently, and thereby leaving the communities unprepared. Thua Thien Hue province is located in Central Viet Nam, with a variant geography of mountains and coastal plains. It is subject to severe climatic hazards such as typhoons, floods, droughts and forest fires. Climate change has caused these conditions to worsen in recent years, causing devastation to the entire province, notably vulnerable rural populations in mountainous areas and along the province's coastal zone. Increased severity and duration of these natural hazards have had disastrous effects. Many international donors were assisting the Viet Nam Government to create a partnering strategy and prepare disaster resistant investment projects for sustainable development of Central Viet Nam through Natural Disaster Mitigation. One significant initiative was that of CECI, and funded by CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency), under Canada Climate Change Development Fund. The main project components were: 1) Training and awareness raising of key community resource persons on climate change issues, 2) Making Safer Village Plans in participatory ways, and 3) Implementing specific components of the planning through sub-projects. During the project period, significant lessons were learned, and it is proposed to replicate the project components in other vulnerable district in the Thua Thien Hue province, in order to create a model of Community Based Climate Change Adaptation, which can be used in different parts of Viet Nam, as well as other DMCs of ADB. The proposed project will learn from the experiences of the above initiative, but will enhance its through 1) analyzing the climate issues (especially rainfall pattern) and disaster events (pattern and recurrence), 2) creating of climate change scenario for future, and 3) climate change adaptation model. Emphasis will be given on the replication of the process to other parts of the world. The proposed project is intended to study the impacts of environmental changes (in form of climate change impacts) to the community, in the form of natural disasters, like flood and cyclone. Specific impacts on the livelihoods (mainly agriculture and aquaculture) and living conditions (housing, health, and education) will be studied. The project will analyze the community adaptation strategies and coping mechanism, and thus, therefore the main emphasis of the project is to focus on human security and environmental dimension of poverty. 2. Objectives The project aim is to develop a Community Based Climate Change Adaptation Model, which can be applied to different socio-economic condition. The goal of the proposed project is to enhance human security in Central Viet Nam to cope with the climate change impacts in the form of natural disasters like flood and cyclone. To achieve the above-mentioned aim and goal, specific objectives are as follow: 1) To study and analyze climate change impacts on communities and its livelihoods in the case study district in Thua Thien Hue province in Central Viet Nam, 2) To undertake training and awareness raising programs in the village, commune and district 3) To initiate participatory planning process in the village, commune and district level, 4) To implement demonstration sub-projects under the safer village/ commune/ district plans, and 5) To monitor and analyze the implementation process, and development of Community Based Climate Change Adaptation Model, 3. Scope of Work/ Description of Proposed Approaches: The project activities and outputs are directly related to the project goal and objectives. The project will be implemented in the Phu Loc district of the Thua Thien Hue province. The district has a long coastline and lagoon, and consequently is prone to typhoon, storm surge and flooding. The total area of the district is 728 sq km, with a population of 143,100, and a population density of 197 per sq km. The direct beneficiaries will be three commune population, which is about 80,000. Direct beneficiaries will also include the district, commune and village governments. Indirect beneficiaries are the adjoining districts, provincial government and the national government. The dteails are provided in the Appendix in Log Frame Analysis (LFA). The range of interventions will include: Improved land-use practice in particular tree lines, vetiver grass and other natural protections for disaster mitigation and environmental protection, Improved livelihood techniques for adaptation to climate change and environmental sustainability, including sustainable acqua-culture techniques Improved water and sanitation for disease prevention during floods. 2

3 Improved disaster safe housing practice for adaptation to climate change The above interventions are related to the Vietnam CSP and PRS through the geographic focus on poverty reduction in the central region and environmental dimensions in poverty reduction projects. Also these interventions are aligned with health, nutrition and social protection strategies of the CSP. The last two interventions have strong elements in CSP s gender strategy. These interventions also provide the opportunity to promote the objectives of ADB s Disaster and Emergency Assistance Policy, which emphasizes the proactive approach in disaster prevention and mitigation. The participatory process for determining priority actions focus on villagers assessing their vulnerability, including identifying the poorest and most vulnerable groups, and proposing solutions that address the community s overall socio-economic development needs and contribute to environmental sustainability. Consequently, the interventions will contribute to poverty reduction and improved protection of the environment. Activities: Proposed activities are directly related to the objectives: Activity 1.1 Stakeholder and Resource Mapping: Through this mapping process, key stakeholders will be identified with its roles and responsibilities. Available resources will be identified in terms of human and social capital analysis. Activity 1.2 Vulnerability, Capacity and Need Assessment: A detailed analysis will be conducted to: 1) understand the vulnerability and risk of the communities, 2) analyze community s coping capacities, and 3) assess the needs and priorities in the village, district and commune level. Activity 2.1 Training Program for the Change Agents: In case of Viet Nam, the grass-roots mass organizations (like women s association, youth association, farmer s association) have a strong role to play in the community. The mass organizations leaders are identified as the Change Agents, and a consolidated training program will be conducted for these change agents. Activity 2.2 Simplified Climate Change Scenario Creation: Based on the available climate prediction data from the national research institute (Institute of Hydrology and Meteorology), a simplified climate change scenario will be produced, with participation of the Change Agents. This scenario will be transformed into simplified, and easy to understand form with the help of the local journalists and mass media. The purpose is to disseminate the information to the people in simplified form. Activity 2.3 Awareness Raising Campaign: An awareness raising campaign will be undertaken in different communes in the case study district. The trained Change Agents will act as the facilitators in the awareness raising campaign. The purpose of this awareness raising campaign is to disseminate the concept of climate change and its impact in the form of natural disaster in an easy to understand form. Activity 3.1: Identify specific needs in the village and communes: With the background information on the overall vulnerability, need and capacity assessment (Activity 1), village and commune specific needs will be identified. This need assessment process will be done by the trained Change Agents (the leaders of the mass organizations), with assistance from the project team. Activity 3.2: Safer Village and Commune-level planning process: Based on the identified needs, and simplified climate change scenario, the planning process will prioritize the actions to cope with the impacts of climate change. The trained change agents will facilitate planning process. Task-stakeholder and resource matrix will be produced, based on the local priorities. This will be a process-oriented approach, rather than the product-focus approach, where the process will enhance the awareness of the people and communities. The village and commune level plans 1 will be combined to form a district level plan and framework of action. Activity 4.1: Implementation of selected demonstration sub-projects: Selected demonstration sub-projects will be implemented in some of the communes and villages. The sub-projects will be selected based on the local needs, commitments of the villages and communes, availability of local contributions, and in accordance with the district level planning and strategy 2. 1 Safer village plan will be 5-10 page documents, which will describe the essential features of the villages (socio-economic status, livelihood options), its disaster vulnerabilities, local capacities, disaster management and asset management plans, and proposed sub-projects to reduce vulnerabilities. These plans will be official plans to link development projects in future (refer to Appendix). 2 Sub-projects might include small infrastructure projects, like construction of village roads, sanitary latrines, shelters and during disasters etc. Training and awareness raising programs will help the communities to understand the climate change issues, and 3

4 Activity 4.2: Training and awareness raising process: These sub-projects will also be considered as training and awareness raising instruments. The demonstration sub-projects will be considered as the seeds for future larger projects in the communes and villages. Activity 5.1 Development of Community Based Climate Change Adaptation Model: Based on the experiences of the implementation process, a model will be developed for its wider application to different socio-economic context. Activity 5.2 Information dissemination: Two workshops will be conducted to disseminate the project findings within the district, province and national level. The above activities will be in accordance to the Viet Nam s Comprehensive Poverty Reduction and Growth Strategy, which identifies sustainable agricultural development, natural resource management, and natural disaster mitigation as important sectors to reduce poverty in rural areas, including coastal zones, and thereby enhancing human security. 4. Work Plan and Reporting The project will be conducted for 12 months. Significant time will be spent for the implementation of grass roots initiatives, working with the communities and the local govenrments on planning issues, and awareness raising. A detailed work plan and reporting scheme is shown in Appendix.

5 The project outcome is disaster and poverty resilient communities, which can cope with the changing climatic condition as the major environmental problem. The strong linkage between the community and the local government is also regarded as an importance project outcome. The performance indicators will be: 1) community s participation in the safer village plan formulation (number of community members and its leaders), 2) community s contribution towards sub-project implementation (amount), and 3) local government s contribution to the sub-project implementation (amount, local government s participation). The outcome indicator will be initiation of actions, and incorporation of project outputs in the plans and policies at district and province level, and dissemination of the experience to other parts of the province. The details are shown in the LFA in Appendix. 6. Subproject Evaluations and Information Dissemination A periodic monitoring and analysis will be conducted all through the implementation process, with periodic publication of monitoring report and newsletters, highlighting the achievements. At the national level, National Disaster Management Partnership (NDMP) will be main dissemination platform. The periodic results will be disseminated at the national level using the Disaster Management Working Group. Midterm and final workshops will be conducted in the province and national level respectively. Report and CD-Roms will be prepared, which will also distributed widely. Project outputs will also be distributed through web-page. As mentioned above, the activities will be process oriented, rather than productbased. These processes are considered as instruments for: i) wider stakeholder involvement, ii) ownership transfer to the people and communities, and iii) ensure sustainability after the project completion. Sustainability of the process will be ensured by adaptation the project outputs in the local development plans and policies. At the community level, the project will provide sustainable benefits to the people by securing their lives and livelihoods in the disaster events, as the result of implementation of project activities. 7. Scope for Replication/Use in other DMCs Viet Nam experience is not unique and limited to this country. Climate change impacts have been prominent in recent days in other parts of Asia, causing significant damages to agriculture and livelihood of people. The climate change adaptation model will help up-scaling and replication of the proposed activities through other projects and programs for DMC adaptation. D. COST ESTIMATE The estimated project cost will be under US$335,950, out of which the requested amount from the ADB- PEF is US $249,950.

7 Additional Information APPENDIX 1. Background and Context 1.1 Human Security: Human Security is concerned with reducing and-when possible removing the insecurities that plague human lives. The human development approach, pioneered by visionary economist Mahbub ul Haq (under the broad umbrella of United Nations Development Programme), has done much to enrich and broaden the literature on development. Human development is concerned with removing the various hindrances that restrain and restrict human lives and prevent its blossoming. Human security is an idea fruitfully supplements the expansionist perspective of human development by directly paying attention to what are sometimes called downside risks. The relationship between human security and the environment is most pronounced in areas of human dependence on access to natural resources. Environmental resources are a critical part of the livelihoods of many people. When these resources are threatened because of environmental changes, people s human security is also threatened, and people move from the rural areas to the marginal lands, and household income falls. This relationship is captured in th At the center of sustainable development is the delicate balance between human security and the environment. Critical to this is the need to explicitly plan for improved environmental management and sustainable development to disaster prevention and preparedness. Sadako Ogata and Amartya Sen in Human Security Now, 2003 e promotion of sustainable development. Disaster management has its direct connotation to human security. Many of the natural disasters like flood, drought are found to be directly related to the environmental degradation, and climate change. These disaster events affect the poor people the most by affecting their lives, properties and livelihoods. Therefore, by creating disaster resilient communities, it is possible to enhance human security The Context of Viet Nam: According to Viet Nam s Comprehensive Poverty Reduction and Growth Strategy, addressing vulnerability to natural disasters is a key poverty reduction priority. Viet Nam's National Strategy for Environmental Protection focuses on continued institutional development, capacity building and integration of environmental considerations into main economic planning and general decision-making. Viet Nam's Climate Change Strategy outlines its mandate in light of the signing of the Kyoto Protocol; and Decision 178 in effect November 12, 2001 which regulates the responsibilities of households and individuals with land tenure to encourage them to protect and develop forests, and make forestry a major source of income. Viet Nam: Initial National Communication, under the UN FCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) states that increase of natural disasters such as typhoon, storm surge, strong wind, and heavy rain would threaten the life of people in many regions, particularly in coastal, mountainous areas. 1.3 Central Viet Nam: Government Policy In the National Government Strategy and Policy, Viet Nam is divided into three approaches of disaster management. In the northern Project Location 7

8 region, it is more on positively prepare for and prevent flood, while, in the Mekong region in the south, it is more on the coexists with flood (living with flood), and in the Central part, it is on positive preparedness, mitigation and management. The above figure shows the proposed project location in Central Viet Nam Thua Thien Hue Province. 2.

A disaster preparedness plan (early warning, evacuation procedures, rescue procedures, safe storage of seeds and other goods, etc) is part of a safer village plan. However, the plan includes (1) a review of the hazards affecting the village, (2) the observed impacts of climate change on the locality, (3) the vulnerability of people, infrastructure, homes, the environment and livelihoods to these hazards and climate change impacts, (4) the existing resources and capacities to prepare for and mitigate disasters, and (5) priority actions to further reduce risk and adapt to climate change. In this sense, the safer village plan is similar to a village development plan but focuses around the reduction of risk to extreme climate events (e.g. natural disasters), and adaptation to climate change. 8

9 4. Relevance to ADB s policy and activities: The proposed project does not have any direct link to the on-going or proposed ADB projects. However, developing a climate change adaptation model applicable for other provinces in Viet Nam and other countries is well within the ADB mandate to deliver the MGDs. Moreover, the proposed subproject s strong emphasis on poverty reduction further justify the ADB support for the project 9
