DESCRIPTION

3 1.Knowledge as a technical barrier 1.1 The Vulnerability Assessment (VA) and the Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) as adaptation tools for decision-making. The use and application of the adaptation tools require high expertise that DMCs government staff may not have. The outcomes provided by the adaptation tools could be a starting point to seek for adaptation financing. These tools are based on methodologies that are in continuous improvement. The climate change adaptation is a field that needs still a lot of research and investigation to do. VA and CBA might answer some of the following questions: o How much is need to invest in new technologies to adapt to future climate parameters variations? o Which sectors/assets are the most vulnerable? o How much it cost to prevent a likely natural disaster? o Which adaptation measures should be prioritize? 1.Knowledge as a technical barrier 2.Financing criteria as a challenge 3.Key strategies to access climate finance 4.Factor CO2: What we do?

1.1The Vulnerability Assessment (VA) and the Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) as adaptation tools for decision-making.

The use and application of the adaptation tools require high expertise that DMCs government staff may not have.

The outcomes provided by the adaptation tools could be a starting point to seek for adaptation financing.

These tools are based on methodologies that are in continuous improvement.

The climate change adaptation is a field that needs still a lot of research and investigation to do.

VA and CBA might answer some of the following questions: o How much is need to invest in new technologies to adapt to future climate

parameters variations?o Which sectors/assets are the most vulnerable?o How much it cost to prevent a likely natural disaster?o Which adaptation measures should be prioritize?

1.2VA case-study: “Energy utility vulnerability assessment ”

Development of CLI-MATE (Climate Adaptation for Energy), a tool to assess generation and distribution facilities through bottom-up approach in order to evaluate the electricity companies’ adaptation to climate change. This tool is coherent with existing methodologies such as DEFRA and IPCC’s principles.

2.1How to face the MDB’s technical proposals submission stage. The DMC used to have a lack of the expertise and human resources

to prepare the complex proposals that adaptation funds require.
