77 77 Adapting to the impacts of heatwaves in a changing climate in Botkyrka, Sweden Europe and Central Asia Sweden Botkyrka Local Disaster risk reduction Heatwaves Research; Monitoring and early warning systems 2010 – 2011 ≈100,000 Euros Municipality of Botkyrka Municipality of Botkyrka Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI) and the Botkyrka Municipality Climate Adapt This project integrates heatwave resilience and action into planning and community guidance, contributing knowledge on heatwave risks in Botkyrka, Sweden with a vulnerability assessment to heatwaves, producing maps of vulnerable groups and areas. This vulnerability assessment initiated the publication of a guide to advise other municipalities experiencing similar vulnerability to heatwaves, and the implementation of protection measures in most vulnerable areas such as care homes. Early warning systems were improved and updated based on the findings of the vulnerability assessment, with focus placed on disseminating information within the most vulnerable areas. Innovative finance mechanisms encouraged environmental co-benefits: air-conditioning units were procured and installed by the government as long as costs were offset by the municipality, and so solar panels were built by the municipality to compensate for the increased energy consumption of the aircon units. Within vulnerable areas, 'cool spots’ were installed by a housing company managing 11,000 apartments. The project incurred limited costs to cover salaries of the three employees hired for the programme. https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/metadata/case-studies/adapting-to-the-impacts-of-heatwaves-in-a-changing-climate-in-botkyrka-sweden

This worked on flood protection and restoration measures, protecting Munich from the 2005 floor which damaged other cities in Southern Germany; improving water quality so that swimming is now possible in the river; improving water and land habitats; and improving recreational quality for residents. A success area of the project was interdisciplinary group driving the Isar-Plan, integrating stakeholders operating at different levels. This consisted of a group of NGOs (the Isar-Allianz), the State Office of Water Management Munich, and the City of Munich, while public participation was driven by internet engagement, dissemination of pamphlets, workshops, press engagement, round tables, and telephone/information services. Environmental co-benefits emerged from cross river sills, preventing fish from passing through, being replaced by flat ramps, improving biodiversity and restoring the habitat of flora and fauna within the river. Outcomes are as follows: the main channel was widened from 50 to 90 metres, giving more space to the river and improving run off and discharge. Embankments, previously secured with concrete slabs, have been replaced by sloping banks. Runoff has improved and can now run off at a rate of 1,100 cubic meters per second. A distance of one metre has been implemented between flood water level and the crest of the dike, protecting low-lying areas from high flood water. https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/metadata/case-studies/isar-plan-2013-water-management-plan-and-restoration-of-the-isar-river-munich-germany

Isolated deep in the Pacific, it depends almost entirely on its port for supplies of food, energy, and most other essentials its people and economy need to survive. Yet its aging dysfunctional port facilities are completely exposed to the effects of climate change. The alternative proposed for GCF’s support is construction of a climate-resilient port that can operate year-round. Of five designs appraised, the one selected comprises (i) a channel through which oceangoing ships can pass between the sea and the shore for the first time in Nauru’s history, (ii) a stable wharf with a turning berth, (iii) a breakwater to shelter the wharf and the berth from waves, and (iv) port buildings, container terminal and port security provisions complying United Nation conventions such as International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code. https://www.greenclimate.fund/project/fp052
83 83 Flood protection in the Upper Vistula river basin: grey and green measures implemented in the Sandomierz area Europe and Central Asia Poland Sandomierz area Local Water; Infrastructure; Nature-based solutions and ecosystem services Floods Policies and strategies; Planning; Infrastructure; Nature-based solutions and ecosystem services 2011-2019 217 million EUR World Bank Regional Water Management authorities of Krakow, Kielce and Rzeszow Climate Adapt Flooding events in the Upper Vistula river basin in 2010 and 2011, drove the implementation of this project to cope with increasing flooding. The town of Sandomierz, which is home to about 24,700 people, saw 40% of its total extension flooded and flood losses were estimated at approximately 100 million Euros. In that context, the project of Flood protection in the Upper Vistula river basin: grey and green measures implemented in the Sandomierz area was born. One of the main objectives of the project were to increase the retention capacity and to reduce flood risk in and around this town in the Sandomierz. The project implements a hybrid approach in which green/grey infrastructure is used. Measurements include the rehabilitation of reservoirs and wetlands, expansion, reconstruction and modernization of river embankments; and the (re)construction of water pump stations and water discharge channels. The adaptation measures were designed within the scope of the River Basin Management Plans (RBMP) and elaborated according to the WFD and the Flood Directive. Furthermore, the impact on natural habitats were monitored according to Natura 2000 policies. https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/metadata/case-studies/flood-protection-in-the-upper-vistula-river-basin-grey-and-green-measures-implemented-in-the-sandomierz-area

82 82 Crop diversification and improved soil management for adaptation to climate change in Segovia Europe and Central Asia Spain Segovia Local Food and agriculture Drought Research 2017 – ongoing  The total cost for producing the assessment and the action plan of the Melque de Cercos farm amounted to 5,000 €. Implementation costs not yet estimated AgriAdapt project & European Commission through the LIFE Program; co-financed by Fundación Biodiversidad from the Spanish Ministry of Ecological Transition Fundación Global Nature Climate Adapt the LIFE AgriAdapt project has initiated 120 pilot farms to test adaptation measures, and one of these is in Melque de Cercos (Segovia, Spain). Responding to droughts, extreme temperature and soil degradation, the Segovia project aims to increase the resilience of rainfed crops through cross-cutting measures, promoting synergy between adaptation and mitigation. A local-level vulnerability assessment was undertaken, from which adaptation measures were proposed: crop rotation was improved with movement away from monoculture, along with soil management measures to control soil usage. The final measure was to implement multifunctional field margins to improve biodiversity: after 2 years, vegetation in these areas to include a diverse species mix including pollinators and increased local fauna. To monitor the progress of this project, a climate risk assessment was undertaken, with feedback from farmers taken into account at regular points of the project. https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/metadata/case-studies/crop-diversification-and-improved-soil-management-for-adaptation-to-climate-change-in-segovia-spain

All of these factors have led to a loss of income (Drame and Kiema, 2016). This situation has led actors in this area to initiate the practice of ecotourism. This has included direct community involvement in the protection of the region’s natural resources through activities such as protecting the communal forest and establishing an ecotourism camp including modest accommodation, food services, extraction and sale of forest products owned and managed by the community. The activities in Tumani Tenda are supported by various organisations, including the National Environment Agency (NEA), the Saint Joseph Family Farm project and the Ministry of Water and Forests (ibid). https://www.transparency-partnership.net/system/files/migrated_document_files/191202_gpd_gambia_ecotourism_web.pdf
