Programme<br />
Pre-training reading module<br />
Required reading material on climate change basics <strong>and</strong> specifically<br />
on adaptation to update newcomers <strong>and</strong> beginners will<br />
be distributed one month before the training (requires approx.<br />
4 h preparation time)<br />
Day 1<br />
The international community has pledged to raise USD<br />
100 billion a year by 2020 for climate change adaptation<br />
<strong>and</strong> mitigation in developing countries. The prominence of<br />
climate change adaptation in international development<br />
calls for effective monitoring tools so that the contribution<br />
of adaptation measures to reducing vulnerability can be<br />
assessed <strong>and</strong> justified.<br />
<strong>SDC</strong> foresees considerable investments in this field <strong>and</strong> has<br />
developed its own instrument, CEDRIG, to help implement<br />
climate change adaptation in <strong>SDC</strong> projects.<br />
Expert input<br />
What is new in climate change science?<br />

<strong>Climate</strong> change adaptation in development cooperation<br />
Input by <strong>SDC</strong><br />
Integrating climate change adaptation <strong>and</strong> disaster risk<br />
reduction into development cooperation<br />
Project case<br />
Opportunities <strong>and</strong> challenges of implementing climate<br />
change adaptation in projects<br />
Expert input<br />
Monitoring of climate adaptation projects in rural<br />
development<br />
Review of the pre-training module (take-home messages,<br />
questions, discussion)<br />
Update on latest relevant reports, for example:<br />
– Special Report on Managing the Risks of Extreme Events <strong>and</strong><br />
Disasters to Advance <strong>Climate</strong> <strong>Change</strong> Adaptation (SREX)<br />
– Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR)<br />
Recent advances in theory <strong>and</strong> concepts: Some practical<br />
aspects<br />
The CEDRIG tool: An introduction<br />
Case presentation, discussion, <strong>and</strong> critical reflection on<br />
participants‘ practical experiences<br />
Monitoring climate change adaptation: An introduction to<br />
issues, challenges, <strong>and</strong> potentials<br />
This course will focus on adaptation to climate change <strong>and</strong><br />
how to monitor adaptation in projects <strong>and</strong> programmes<br />
using the CEDRIG tool. The learning event uses inputs from<br />
experts in adaptation <strong>and</strong> monitoring. Case studies from<br />
<strong>SDC</strong>-supported projects will be presented <strong>and</strong> discussed to<br />
learn about <strong>and</strong> apply tools <strong>and</strong> methodologies for climate<br />
change adaptation. The challenges of monitoring adaptation<br />
within the project cycle will also be addressed. This learning<br />
event builds on previous courses organised by the GPCC.<br />
The learning event also serves as a platform for networking<br />
<strong>and</strong> for stimulating exchange of experiences between people<br />
working in development cooperation in different positions<br />
<strong>and</strong> institutions.<br />
