ANNEX 1MANAGEMENT ACTION RECORD MATRIXIEG Findings and ConclusionsCurrent results frameworks onresilience are not outcome-orientedand risk emphasizing spending overresults.IEG RecommendationsDevelop and pilot terri<strong>to</strong>rial andnational-level measures of adaptationrelatedoutcomes and impacts forinclusion in an improved resultsframework.Acceptance byManagement<strong>World</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>: AgreeManagement Response<strong>World</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>: Multiple challenges need <strong>to</strong>be addressed <strong>to</strong> make progress inimplementing this recommendation. Thesechallenges include developing soundmethodologies, ga<strong>the</strong>ring consistent andcomparable baseline data, and developingindica<strong>to</strong>rs that cover institutional,household, and biophysical characteristicsin pilot projects. Working with <strong>the</strong> new<strong>World</strong> Development Report (WDR) on “Riskand Uncertainty,” management will developmethodologies and processes <strong>to</strong> captureintermediate and long-term outcomes.Management will work <strong>to</strong> mobilizeresources in FY13-14 <strong>to</strong> develop thissystem and design pilots.Costs and impacts of presumedadaptation-oriented activities arenot well unders<strong>to</strong>od.Pilot approaches <strong>to</strong> better assess <strong>the</strong>costs, benefits, sustainability, andimpact of activities with presumedresilience benefits.<strong>World</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>: Partially agree<strong>World</strong> <strong>Bank</strong>: The Economics of Adaptationstudies highlighted many methodologicalchallenges and data needs that would have<strong>to</strong> be addressed <strong>to</strong> implement thisrecommendation on cost-benefit analysisalone. There will be additional challenges<strong>to</strong> measure impacts and sustainability. Thework under this recommendation isdependent on additional resources andpartnerships for developing methodologiesand implementing <strong>the</strong> pilots. Pastexperience suggests that this work will taketime and <strong>the</strong> implementation of pilots is notlikely <strong>to</strong> start until FY14 and maybe later.xxxvi
