Chapter 10: Supporting El Salvador to Reduce Infrastructure Risks within a Green,Low-Emission and Climate-Resilient Framework for DevelopmentThis presentation focuses on this five-step process as a whole, the interconnection among these stepsand the support that UNDP is providing to implement them.What does UNDP provide to countries?‘‘UNDP provides awide range of services— knowledge,data and analysis,training, projectidentification andaccess to financing —to facilitate countries’implementation ofGreen LECRDS.’’UNDP provides a wide range of services — knowledge, data and analysis, training, project identificationand access to financing — to facilitate countries’ implementation of Green LECRDS. First, UNDPsupports knowledge exchange of lessons learned and best practices within and between regions.UNDP also provides data and analysis, supporting bio-physical and socio-economic assessments andthe development of scenarios specifically designed to inform national and subnational climate changestrategies, action plans and related products through the provision of methodological tools and techniques.In addition, UNDP offers training on the use of these tools and on design of integrated GreenLECRDS. UNDP also facilitates the selection of projects in support of Green LECRDS and the identificationof appropriate regulatory and financial instruments (i.e. public policy and public and private investmentprojects for infrastructure). Finally, UNDP provides technical assistance to facilitate access to newfinancial mechanisms. Given the difficulty of attaining credibility at the decision-making level, theseservices help to meet the need for cross-ministerial support by strengthening relationships amongelected officials via steering committees and sustaining project approach via technical working groups.Step 1:Developing a Multi-Stakeholder Planning ProcessThe first step in preparing Green LECRDS — developing a multi-stakeholder planning process — emphasizesthe cross-sectoral nature of the Green LECRDS approach. This process includes undergoing internalpreparation and stocktaking exercises; raising awareness among national and subnational authorities;identifying and establishing a decision-making structure (e.g. steering committee, project coordinatingunit, sectoral working groups); and identifying/establishing a multi-stakeholder consultative process toidentify priority options and develop a Green LECRDS roadmap.The first step in the Green LECRDS process should consider the following activities.Establish Green LECRDS project team and project coordinator;Review and compile information on existing climate assessments and plans, existing projects,policies, funding sources, key authorities and financial and technical experts, i.e. map key climateissues, opportunities and stakeholders;Establish Green LECRDS steering committee (using existing committees and structures whenpossible) composed of high-level elected officials and civil servants in sectoral ministries to ensureappropriate level of policy and political involvement;Identify and create policy and technical working groups (e.g. finance, energy, agriculture, forestry,urban development and transport, etc.) composed of representatives from national/regional/localauthorities, sectoral ministries, private sector, non-governmental and community organizations, andother civil society entities;Identify technical capacity needs and implement training; andPut in place communications and awareness-raising strategy directed towards a wide range ofauthorities, partners, and stakeholders.118Paving the Way for Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: Conference Proceedings
Chapter 10: Supporting El Salvador to Reduce Infrastructure Risks within a Green,Low-Emission and Climate-Resilient Framework for DevelopmentPART IIFigure 10.1 is an example of a partnership framework of the multi-stakeholder participatory decisionmakingprocess at the subnational level. In this model, existing subnational governing bodies (e.g.regional assemblies) identify elected officials to sit on the project steering committee to make decisions ina series of project teams, public citizens groups, and technical and climate change committees at national,regional and territorial levels. This process links to the national communications and ongoing developmentstrategies in which the country is engaged.TechnicalPresentation 1What a Country ShouldThink About andThen Do to AddressClimate Change andInfrastructure RisksFigure 10.1: A partnership framework through a multi-stakeholder participatorydecision-making processProject steering committee:Sub national elected officialsExisting sub national governingbody (e.g. Regional aseembly)TechnicalPresentation 2Internalization ofClimate Risks in theContext of Planningand Urban DevelopmentRegional climatecoordination committeePublic citizens groupTechnicalPresentation 3A Framework forRisk Assessmentand Risk-InformedDecision-Making forInfrastructureDevelopmentITCPTechnical committeesProject teamOther initiatives andstructures at national,regional, local levelTechnicalPresentation 4Probabilistic RiskModeling: BasicPrinciples andApplicationsUruguay, for example, has established an upper-level decision-making body, the CR-LCD TACC SteeringCommittee, and three municipalities in Montevideo, Canelones and San Jose (see Figure 10.2). Five technicalworking groups — natural resource management (fisheries, forestry, etc.), energy and transport,local finance, urban planning, and human development and gender issues — support and report to thesethree decision-making bodies.TechnicalPresentation 5An Economic Frameworkfor Evaluating ClimateProofing Investmentson InfrastructureTechnicalPresentation 6Supporting ElSalvador to ReduceInfrastructure Riskswithin a Green, Low-Emission and Climate-Resilient Frameworkfor DevelopmentPaving the Way for Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: Conference Proceedings 119
