Climate Resilient Industry What can we do to manage the climate risk on manufacturing?

Climate Resilient Industry

• It builds on cleaner and resource & energy- efficient production practices and technologies to ensure managing climate risks.

Introducing the Project

• Low Carbon and Climate Resilient Industrial Development in Africa (130028)

Funded by Japan

Project Location

• Egypt

• Senegal

• Kenya

• South Africa

Project Objective

• To create awareness and demonstrate the opportunities and benefits of low carbon growth and climate resilient development in the manufacturing and related productive sectors in Africa

Key Activities

Awareness Raising & Dissemination

Climate Risks & Vulnerability Assessments

LCCR Technology Demonstration

(Adaptation Measures)

Business Partnerships

Assessment Steps

1 • Vulnerability Assessment • Selections of Target Sectors

2 • Value Chain Analysis

3 • Technical Assessments of selected factories • 12 factories in each country

4 • Technology Screenings of beneficial factories • 1-3 factories in each country
