The project sought to: a) expand the uptake of a pilot-tested weather index-based insurance (WIBI) to 2,000 agricultural households in two regions on the island of Mindanao; b) create awareness among the farmers to improve agricultural productivity and local disaster risk management. Mindanao was chosen as the implementation area of the project because it is the “food basket” of Philippines, and, thus, critical to the country’s food security. It is also one of the poorest regions in the Philippines, with a high prevalence of small-scale farmers who depend on agriculture for their livelihoods. https://www.transparency-partnership.net/system/files/migrated_document_files/190318_gpd_parisabkommen_philippinen_rz.pdf

It faces significant challenges due to its vulnerability to climate change. South Tarawa’s water supply is almost entirely dependent on underground freshwater lenses, the quality and quantity of which are seriously threatened by climate change-induced inundations and prolonged drought. Should such events occur simultaneously or in quick successions, they may reduce the lenses’ yield to zero for periods of up to five years. Given this, the lenses cannot be relied upon as the main source of water in a future with climate change. This project aims to reduce the climate vulnerability of the entire population of South Tarawa through increased water security by providing them with a reliable, safe, and climate-resilient water supply. This will be done through the construction of a 4,000 m3 desalination plant and a photovoltaic system to provide low-emission power for the plant and the water supply network. With this project, the residents of South Tarawa will no longer need to boil drinking water, reducing emissions from burning fuel and firewood. https://www.greenclimate.fund/sites/default/files/document/funding-proposal-fp091-adb-kiribati.pdf

The cost for the implementation of the NWRMs represents the 17,2% of the total budget. The BEWARE Project and the European Union Municipalities of the Altovicentino area (Santorso and Marano Vicentino), TESAF - University of Padua, Consorzio di Bonifica Alta Pianura Veneta, ALDA, Veneto Agricoltura Climate Adapt The BEWARE project targets flooding in two areas of the Altovicentino region, Santorso and Marano Vicentino, and consists of seven interventions selected from the Natural Water Retention Measures (NWRMs) platform, with the aim to increase the resilience of the selected areas to flooding. The project relied on participatory processes, with the involvement of citizens to spread small scale actions; local municipal administrators and technicians to design and implement the measures; farmers to adopt the measures; and students as a target group of the bottom-up approach with regards to awareness raising. One intervention was a detention basin to store 2,500 cubic meters of water, with the aim to retain water and ensure water resources were readily available across all seasons in the agricultural sector. An environmental co-benefit was realised by surrounding the basin with vegetation, increasing biodiversity and creating new habitats for wildlife. To improve drainage of rainwater, a rain garden and underdrain bioretention were implemented in a Piazzale della Libertà parking lot. A water detention basin was built in Via Volti with a green area built around the basin further increasing biodiversity, while in a private residential area of Corte Acquasaliente, two rainwater harvesting systems were installed, collecting 2000 litres of water, as well as two dry wells to catch water runoff from the street. In Santorso, two rain gardens, an infiltration trench, and a porous paving still, were installed. Each of these stated measures aim to mitigate surface water flooding. https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/metadata/case-studies/natural-water-retention-measures-in-the-altovicentino-area-italy
