The Mexican Context: Climate Change Law
5/29/2013
• “Incorporate in environmental policies and instruments
climate change mitigation and adaptation criteria”
• Establish the basis and instruments to promote institutional
capacity strengthening to stop climate change
• Educate, inform and
increase awareness on
the adverse effects of
climate change
Página 11
Mainstreaming in Agriculture
5/29/2013
• Counterpart: Federal Ministry of Agriculture
• Objective: Identify entry points into SAGARPA’s
programs operational rules to reduce the impacts
of climate change and promote producer’s
adaptation.
• Develop a methodology that can be used in other
institutions and sectors within the Mexican
government.

program’s rules and
adaptation actions.
Objective:
incorporating
adaptation criteria
into existing
program’s rules.

Some recommendations…
5/29/2013
• Findings: need to change operation rules to
introduce adaptation criteria on those components
that have the highest potential for that.
• Budget allocation to those components with
highest probability of incorporating these criteria
• Increase investment in the Program: Investment in
Equipment and Infrastructure with an adaptation
focus
• Programs such as PROCAMPO, which has the
highest territorial coverage, number of farmers and
subsidies, needs more attention to: improve
ecosystems; change in crops, sustainable soil and
resources’ management.

Background: Peruvian National System for Public Investments
(SNIP, acronym in Spanish)
SNIP is a governmental administrative system for public
investment projects (PIP) at national, regional and local levels
(http://www.snip.gob.pe/)
The Ministry of Economy and Finance through the General
Directorate of Investment Policy is the governing body of the
SNIP.
PIP are designed according to criteria that ensure
sustainability and social profitability. They are based on
sectorial policies and plans.
5/29/2013
Page 23
Background: Disaster Risk Management into Public Investment
Since 2006-2007, the concept and methodology of
disaster risk management are integrated into public
investment projects.
Since 2010, two publications outline how to include
social evaluation of disaster risk reduction measures.
The climate change context is developed in one of the
publications.
Currently, the guidelines available in SNIP indicate
that projects must consider disaster risk analysis,
identify DRR measures and evaluate, when applicable,
their social benefits and costs.

Two main conceptual entry points into public investment
projects 1. DRM will be expanded to consider the climate change context. During
the identification of historical hazard events, it will be necessary to
evaluate changes in the frequency and the intensity of hazards, and to
identify extreme events that are new in a given territory.
Afterwards, the analysis of exposure level and vulnerability is mandatory
in order to evaluate the risk and to propose risk reduction measures.
2. Also, the project design will add consideration of other climate risks that
might effect resource availability (e.g. water for hydroelectric power or
irrigation) and the variables by which demand is calculated (e.g.
increasing the demand for health services or crop/livestock sanitation).
These risks are associated with changes in climate averages and
variability.

Social evaluation
Page 31
What helps in achieving the outputs
• For case studies (regional projects): sessions to review and provide
feedback, stakeholders are trained in climate change matters, facilitate
exchange of opinions between national and regional stakeholders.
• For guidelines (e.g. Tourism Sector): field work, interviews with local
authorities, input sessions, focus group sessions, working together with
national authorities, build on the existing framework (DRM into project),
using relevant information from case studies as they advance.
• For digital platform (to obtain information and use it in projects): list
climate information available, evaluate the national situation and
possibilities, identify information needs of DRM and CCA according to
project planners and evaluators, permanent participation of technical
personnel from MEF.

What are the challenges and why?
Some challenges Details
For the digital platform:
•Limited/lack of climate information
•Weak inter-institutional
arrangements to access relevant
information.
Climate scenarios in only 6 of Peru´s
159 watersheds.
Limited monitoring of climate data over
time and in mega diverse territory.
Few vulnerability studies related to
climate change effects.
Restricted access to information btwn
public entities. Information costs.
Weak knowledge about climate change
impacts.
Most experts work in environmental
agencies (national & regional).
Frequent rotation of personnel
Difficulty to adequately include existing
DRM in project.
A preliminary sample shows that project
teams have difficulties in including DRM
as currently required.
Post-disaster emergency responses still
predominate with decision-makers.
5/29/2013
Page 34
Main lessons to date
• At starting point: discussions (concept & methods) on how climate risk
could be integrated into the current project design process.
• Maintain an integrated vision (e.g. with DRM) – don´t start from zero.
• Good communication between and among partners is vital.
• Combine Top-down and Bottom-up Approaches.
• The methodological steps should focus on simplicity and practicality.
• Analysis should entail quantitative and qualitative inputs and outputs.
• Capacity-building is required as a part of a sustained strategy for
mainstreaming adaptation.
• Limited information cannot be a justification for postponing decisions now.
• Taking advantage of current formal and informal networks.

identify the contribution to adaptation, define indicators to monitor adaptation…
»Define the entry points for Adaptation in agricultural development
»Clarify concepts: Vulnerability to what? Of whom?
»Set up a team responsible for Adaptation (same people with a new vision)
»Define the processes and the outcomes for Adaptation
»Provide extra funds for research, networking, training/capacity building

CCA approach in PROAGRO
• Small farmers in dry rural areas are more resilient to climate risks, ensure availability and access to water (for agricultural production) through integrated watershed management and have increased their incomes from agricultural production in a sustainable manner.
Objetive of the Program
• 1) Local practical experiences (to increase resilience of small-farm holders)
• 2) Advisory services to national programs and regional/local iniciatives on CCA
• 3) Climate Change Knowledge Management
Entry Points for Adaptation
• Improved management of natural resources to strengthen the production base (soil, water,..)
• Increased income from agricultural production to enhance food security
• Develop adaptive capacity of key stakeholders
Increasing resilience to
climate change means…(and is measured by…)

Mainstreaming CCA/DRR into irrigation projects at the national level
Climate Change & Irrigation Guideliness
Module 1: Checklist about climate and
risks
Module 2: Assessment of climate and
risks in the irrigation project
Step 1: Assessment of climate risks
related to the project
Step 2: Identification of measures
Step 3: Evaluation and prioritization of
the proposed measures
Step 4: Integration of the measures into
the logic framework of the project for its
implementation
As a result of integrating
CCA into the program, the
consequent steps were
advising the national
counterparts (ViceMinistry of
Water Resources and
Irrigation) to integrate
CCA/DRR into irrigation
projects within the national
investment system.
Therefore, a guideliness
was included in the legislation
related to public investment
for irrigation

Integrating the CCA approach into the national
Guideliness for watershed projects
The project design includes…
Issues related to climate variability and
climate change to consider in the project
(from primary and secondary sources, including
future scenarios, change of climate, extreme
events and its impacts in the area of the project,
current and future nature hazards, its impacts on
livelihoods, and adaptive capacity of the
community where the poject will be
implemented)
The climate-proofing of the project (explaing
how could climate change affect the results of
the project and how to reduce the expected
impacts)
A similar
process was
conducted for
watershed
projects at the
national level,
integrating the
CCA approach
into the national
guideliness for
public funds

»Mainstreaming adaptation into a program requieres to simplify the concepts,
to get a clear understanding of its importance, in order to engage easily with
the team into the new subject.
»Regarding the counterparts, the participation of key stakeholders from the
beginning of the process is crucial for the ownership and capacity building.
It is a highly participative process.
»Key message: Adaptation is not a goal itself but a process; therefore,
mainstreaming adaptation does not requiere additional/new structures, only
‘adjustments’ to reduce the impacts of climate change and therefore
contribute to the sustainability of the implemented measures.
»M&E of adaptation, within the national system involving national
stakeholders
» Integrating the CCA approach into the national system for public investment
within the different sectors (not only the agriculture-related)
