2 Preparedness 1. Environmental Emergency Risk Index 2. Thematic Preparedness Work 3. Environmental Emergencies Centre
3 Environmental Emergency Risk Index (EERI) Background Global risk models Way to prioritize support Caveats Simplicity Validation underway Draft: work in progress Not the whole answer
4 Environmental Emergency Risk Index (EERI) Captures 2 NEW elements: Technological Hazards Environmental Vulnerability Builds on what is already available (InfoRM). Provides a wide global perspective. Permits objective classification by country. Is proactive: better than responding ad hoc to requests from countries or donors. Allows prioritization of support efforts on the basis of a systematic compilation of data.
5 Perfect The EERI is NOT will never be, but will improve as datasets are reinforced. Absolute index is merely relative, comparing countries. Static needs to be periodically updated and regularly improved with better data, understanding and techniques.

Hazards: No Vul/Cap: to consider
7 Methodology: Framework EER = Hazards/threats (H) (events) + Vulnerability (V) (condition) + Capacity (C) (condition, resources) 3 Domains Conceptual Function of H, V, C
8 EERI Elements An environmental emergency is defined as a sudden onset disaster or accident resulting from natural, technological or human-induced factors, or a combination of these, that cause or threaten to cause severe environmental damage as well as harm to human health and/or livelihoods. Indicators for an INDEX of Environmental Emergency Risk (EER) Hazard or Threat (H) 7 Indicators Technological Hazards (H8) Industrializa on (H1) Urbaniza on (H2) Mining (H3) Dams (H4) Rail/Road Density ( Proxy: TDG) (H5) Natural Hazards (Sudden) (I) (H6) Floods Quakes/Tsunami Storms Human Hazards (Conflict, I) (H7) Vulnerability (V) 7 Indicators Natural Resource V Forests (EPI) (V1) Water (EPI) (V2) Soil (V3) Air (EPI) (V4) Biodiversity (EPI) (V5) Human V Popula on Density (V6) Vulnerability (I) (V7) Capacity (C ) 3 Indicators Environmental Performance Index (EPI) (Hlth & Vitality) (C1) Capacity (I) (C2) (Ins tu onal and Infrastructure) Corrup on (C3) (Proxy: Gov.)

18 EERI: Discussion Use (JEU and/or external) Update and improvement Partner involvement UNEP, OECD, UNIDO For consideration Should JEU and SAGEE advocate for the EERI; for inclusion of technological hazards and environmental vulnerabilities into humanitarian risk indices; for EERI use in prioritization? What are the entry points for JEU for providing support within the different risk elements? For example: mapping hazards, decreasing or informing about vulnerabilities, developing institutional capacities)?
19 JEU Project Document: EE Preparedness Timeframe: March 2014 February 2016 Budget: US$ 1.8 million; 25 % secured Three components: 1. Integration of environmental emergency considerations into key global disaster preparedness tools. 2. Support to those countries that are most at risk of environmental emergencies. 3. Further development and promotion of the Environmental Emergencies Centre.
