EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2014 has been a year of further consolidation of the disaster management framework in Bangladesh. No major disasters struck in 2014, although limited monsoon flooding in the major river basins in July and August provided an opportunity to assess the effectiveness of Local Disaster Risk Reduction Fund (LDRRF)-financed infrastructures, which generally served their purpose well. Thousands of people sheltered on raised land throughout sometimes extended periods of inundation. Among the notable achievements in 2014 we can highlight: Professionalization:

 The groundwork for the MoDMR Research and Training Institute has been laid.

 Over 50 Union Disaster Management Committees have been trained using the UDMC Operations Manual.

 Regulations to implement the Disaster Management Act 2012 have been approved by MoDMR and sent to the Ministry of Law for approval. Rural and Urban risk reduction:

 In the course of 2014, 185 rural schemes have been started in 36 unions of 20 upazilas, benefitting 204,759 people; while 8 urban schemes have been initiated in 5 municipalities benefiting 78,500 people.

 The Urban Development Directorate (UDD) was awarded the prestigious 2014 Asia Pacific Townscape Award by UN Habitat for the Mymensingh Strategic Development Plan, the first participatory urban development plan in Bangladesh. Disaster Preparedness:

 Fire Service and Civil Defence (FSCD), with support from CDMP, has trained and equipped 3,208 urban volunteers in 2014 (26,500 since 2011) and provided rescue equipment for establishing 10 model fire stations in and Chittagong.

 The Cyclone Preparedness Program in six Upazilas of the South East of Bangladesh has been strengthened by recruiting, training, and providing light equipment to the volunteers. Mainstreaming:

 A draft DRR/CCA (Climate Change Adaptation) screening tool has been developed to revise Union development planning of the Local Government Division. Once in practice, all 4,550 unions will develop and implement DRR-CCA sensitive local development plans ensuring that line ministry development budgets are risk sensitive.

 The DDM established the Online Disaster Library on DRR-CCA to disseminate CDMP learning products to a wider audience; so far 350 knowledge products have been uploaded. About 600,000 searches and around 27000 downloads have been

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 1

performed. Climate Change Adaptation:

 A study on climate and disaster related displacement has been published.

 Three adaptation guidelines for flood / flash flood, cyclone / salinity and drought hazards were published. After extensive consultation with the Government of Bangladesh and development partners CDMP agreed a one year no cost extension to secure the legacy of the program through enhancement of MoMDR ownership of key project results. The extension period is focusing on five strategic themes and a reduction of the work plan overall. The strategic themes are: 1. Institutionalization 2. Mainstreaming 3. Local level action 4. Preparedness and early warning 5. Information management

Acknowledgements CDMP wishes to express its thanks to the Government of Bangladesh, Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief, the Department of Disaster Management, and the development partners: the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA), the Australian Department for Foreign Affairs and Trade, European Union, UK Department for International Development (DFID) and The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for their continued cooperation and support.

1. PROGRESS ON OUTCOME AREAS

1.1. Professionalizing DM System in Bangladesh

1.1.1. Progress during 2014

2014 saw several important legal instruments for disaster management being finalized and nearing implementation, including:

 The English version of the Disaster Management Act 2012 - prepared and being finalized, incorporating feedback from MoDMR.

 The Bangla version of the Standing Orders on Disaster (SD -also finalized and ready for publication.

 Five out of nine planned disaster management rules (These include the rules for National level Disaster Management Committees, Local level Disaster Management Committees, National Disaster Response Coordination Group, Local Disaster Response Coordination Group, and Awards/Incentives - Regional Consultation Workshop on by-laws allowances for DM performance) for Disaster Management Act 2012 Additionally, drafts for the following documents have been developed:

 A draft of the rules for the National Disaster Volunteer Organization

 Drafts of the organogram, recruitment rules and schedule of staffing of the DM Research and Training Institute.

 Draft Local Disaster Risk Reduction & Emergency Fund Management has been developed (see Annex - C for detailed status of rules and guidelines). Training provided to more than 150 planning officials on revised DPP format. A first draft of the Disaster Information Management Guideline, currently being reviewed by CDMP.

 A draft of the National Communication Strategy on DRM, currently being fine- tuned by the PIB in consultation with MoDMR & DDM.

 A draft for a training module of capacity development programme for MoDMR officials. Furthermore, CDMP has facilitated the training of 469 local level journalists in 13 districts on the topic of DRR and CCA. CDMP also contributed in the preparation of the initial draft of post-2015 for disaster risk reduction framework (HFA2) as well as development of the HFA monitoring report (2013- 2015) which is ready for publication. Furthermore, CDMP facilitated the coordination of Bangladesh’s participation in 6th Asian Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 3

including organizing side events, a technical session and the market place. As a part of the implementation of the National DM Training and Education Strategies, partial research grants support has been provided to 20 undergraduate students in the DM faculty of PSTU Furthermore, a course titled “Disaster and Risk Governance”, has been incorporated in the Public Administration Department under the University of Dhaka. The online DM Library has been launched and is now accessible for all (www.dmic.org.bd/e-library) with more than 350 knowledge materials. District resource centres has been established in 24 non-CDMP districts, and supplied with furniture and knowledge materials. Since June 2014, more than 600,000 searches have been performed in the library. The library has been promoted locally as well as globally through UN-SPIDER, Relief-Web, and DeSHARY network.

1.1.2. Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

Policy and Legislative Framework to Guide Disaster Management Reforms and Programmes: The DM Act 2012 prepared and updated the SOD 2010 with support from CDMP. In addition to the above regulations, the guideline for the Standing Order on Disasters - including Cyclone Shelter Construction and Maintenance Guideline 2011 – has been published. To make the development projects from 10 key ministries DRR-CCA- sensitive, the DPP format was revised.

Strengthened Collaborative Partnerships, Information Management and Liaison Capability: Since 2010, CDMP has been providing support to the ministry and DDM to establish the HFA monitoring system. Additionally, two HFA reports for 2009-11 and 2011- 13 have been published. This has improved the internal capacity of the ministry and the department and built a basis on which to assume leadership in the coming years.

Decentralized Capacity Building and Professional Development Structures Established and Providing Quality Support: To implement the National DM Training and Education Strategies, CDMP has provided 260 research grants and sponsored 160 post graduate studies on disaster risk management. Several universities have introduced undergraduate programme on disaster management with support from Inauguration of Institute of Disaster Management and CDMP. Additionally, 31 training and Vulnerability Studies in Dhaka University research institutes have a formed a network to share and regularly update the curricula and teaching materials on the subject. In 30 of these institutions, reference corners and GIS labs have been established, with 450 titles and 1500 reference/text books. Furthermore, the Bangladesh Public Administration Training Centre has adopted DM issues into their course curricula, both incorporated into ACAD

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 4

course and in new, separate courses. This will result in trained senior and mid-level civil service officials on DM issues in the government.

‘Knowledge Services Centre’ established and providing efficient quality knowledge management service to disaster management: With CDMP assistance, the Solution Exchange on DRR & CCA has been established to share new practices and innovations among professionals and academia. So far, the facility has more than 500 participants regularly sharing their experiences on contemporary development challenges. To complement the effort, CDMP has also updated the disaster dictionary to educate professionals on DM terminologies. By now, CDMP has produced more than three hundred knowledge materials, all of which are hosted in the interactive online library mentioned above. In addition, CDMP - through the Press Institute of Bangladesh - has:

 updated educational curricula for mass media department in Rajshahi university incorporating DRR-CCA issues

 produced 10 hazard specific reference manuals,

 produced 4 urban docudramas,

 produced DRR-CCA contents for 14 community radio stations.

Additionally, 1200 radio sets have been distributed, and more than 200 journalists from 13 hazard-prone districts trained.

1.2. Rural Risk Reduction

1.2.1 Progress during 2014

In the course of 2014, 185 new rural risk reduction schemes were started in 36 unions of 20 Upazilas from 16 Districts worth BDT 309,224,563 which should benefit 204,759 people. In addition, 320 schemes were completed in 2014 from 88 unions under 56 Upazilas in 32 Districts. Scheme implementation in 2014 has created 9 million work days, the equivalent of 13,000 fulltime jobs for women and 23,000 for men. Engagement of Women in Rural Risk Reduction CDMP has also, in partnership with National interventions implementation Instituted for Local Government (NILG), implemented a broad based training programme for 195 DMCs (180 Union DMCs and 15 District DMCs) across the country. In 2014, ToT in 6 districts was completed and these trainers will train at UDMC level. To help the training and learning process, 4,500 copies of the DMC Operational Manual have been distributed to DMCs and training participants in 2014, bringing the total of distributed copies up to 22,500. Moreover, a “Union Development Planning (UDP) incorporating Disaster Management” guideline has been prepared. Progress has been made to institutionalize the Disaster Management Guideline at the local level planning though Local Government Division.

1.2.2 Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

Strengthening DMC capacity and institutionalization UDMCs are the fundamental community level institution for delivering disaster management on the ground. A recent study1 identified lack of capacity of UDMCs in risk reduction planning, coordination, governance and gender inclusion, among others. Respective disaster management guidelines, policies and plans adopted the Community Risk Assessment as a tool to develop local level disaster management plan and to undertake projects/interventions2. National and international organizations such as Islamic Relief, Action-Aid, Oxfam, Save the Children, Plan, and CARITAS have also adopted the CRA guideline to develop their community based disaster management programs. CDMP has updated the earlier CRA guideline, and printed it in both Bengali (500 copies) and English (200 copies) for wider dissemination.

Facilitating community level risk reduction through LDRRF mechanism: In the course of the project, about 3 million people, including 1.3 million women, have benefitted3 from the implementation of CDMP’s 1,865 local disaster risk reduction schemes Local level action plans developed using the CRA guidelines are being implemented through the Local Disaster Risk Reduction Fund mechanism. Since 2010, 1,865 rural schemes, comprising of 99,226 specific interventions, have been undertaken in 321 Community Risk Assessment (CRA) for development of Risk Reduction Action Plan Unions from 108 Upazilas and 40 Districts, The total value of the 1,007 completed projects in rural areas is USD 8,649,361, and the total allocation is USD 23.42 million. Implementation of LDRRF schemes is estimated to have created totally 14.6 million work days for around 185,000 male and 30,000 female casual workers. DRR Strategy for Microfinance Sector: A strategy for incorporating DRR and CCA in the Microfinance Sector was developed in partnership with Bangladesh Bank in 2013. Rapid assessment of CDMP’s LDRRF interventions in flood affected districts: A Joint Needs Assessment conducted at the end of August 2014 showed that flooding in the second half of the month had affected nearly 2 million people in nine districts on North Western Bangladesh. As the CDMP has LDRRF schemes in the affected districts, the CDMP conducted field visits to observe and learn about the effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of these schemes following the floods. The field visits have resulted in the following: a. Construction of rural roads and embankments should not obstruct any flowing natural drainage system (including seasonal/dead canals). b. Height of the earth works should be determined based on the Flood Danger Level and High Flood Level for the locality. c. Protection for soil erosion from earthworks must be considered during designing and budgeting, especially for sandy soils in the newly accredited islands d. Schemes should be complete, incorporating all potential beneficiaries in the immediate locality, and comprehensive through inclusion of soft (e.g. livelihood support, disaster risk awareness) inputs. Engagement of the community for earthwork and construction of facilities will create greater ownership and short term employment. e. The plan and budget needs to be shared with the intended beneficiaries to enhance accountability. A community planning meeting should be organized prior to physical implementation alongside a functional accountability system for enabling feedback. Maintenance commitments should be enshrined as a pre-condition for implementation. f. Private lands should never be considered for any interventions.

3 Safeguarding life and livelihoods, household assets, maintaining communal assets, etc.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 7

g. District wise fixed rate for earth works does not help much and standardizing rates as per the vulnerable zones (char, floodplains, coastal, etc.) instead should perform better. h. A wider study on the policy and program options for future local level risk reduction schemes should be undertaken immediately, including cost benefit analysis. LDRRF interventions have been implemented by CDMP II for more than three years so it is an appropriate moment to consider the options, based on experience and lessons learned, for the most appropriate route to reduction of vulnerability at scale.

The government has given us house and land - maintaining it properly is our responsibility!

Rafeza Bibi, a resident of the Bainpara village of Suterkhali (Dacope, Khulna) had a solvent family with good income. They had a grocery shop, a small plot of farm land, a few cattle, fishing in the river and a kitchen garden. Cyclone Aila ruined their life and washed away everything they had. Even though the entire family survived, life became unbearable due to lost sources of livelihood. They had to live in a small makeshift shanty on the embankment and maintain the family with an income of Tk. 150 per day from her husband’s work as a day labourer. There were not any facilities for sanitation and fresh water. During winter and rainy days, the family suffered desperately. Rafeza is now much happier in the Disaster and Climate Resilient Village, established by CDMP. She is an active member of Project Implementation Committee of the model village. She says: “I dream of a new life”. 58 families, including Rafeza’s, worked together to build their own houses. The village is built on raised land with all the necessary facilities such as sanitary latrine, solar lights, improved stoves, pure drinking water, school, play ground, mosque, cyclone shelter, pond and graveyard. The village also has three ponds for fish culture. In order to secure their livelihoods, the villagers were also trained in different income generating activities. Rafeza received training on farming. “Earlier I didn’t have enough knowledge on systematic cultivation. Now I have learnt how to make and use compost manure, proper land use,, how to grow vegetables in pots, and how to plant trees in appropriate location based on their size and type”. Now the villagers can cultivate vegetables on their own land , meet family needs and earn some extra money by selling them. Rafeza and her fellow villagers have formed an association for managing the village and its surroundings. Each household deposits 10 taka every week. These savings can also be helpful for them in future as a source of re-financing from within. The association members advise the villagers on keeping their environment clean and healthy. In Rafeza Bibi’s words “The overnment has given us house and land - maintaining it properly is our responsibility.”

1.3. Urban Risk Reduction

1.3.1 Progress in 2014

In 2014, 8 new schemes were undertaken in 5 municipalities. Of these, the resilient habitat project in Gopalgonj is a particularly notable one where about 100 households have already taken residence. In addition, 3 schemes initiated earlier have been completed this year. Retrofitting assessments were made for Urban Risk reduction scheme to reduce waterlogging problem three major buildings: Dhaka Medical College Hospital, and Bangladesh Secretariat building no. 1 and 4. These assessments included subsoil investigation and as-built- structure/architectural drawing. To steer the process and develop internal capacity, 30 Public Works Department professionals were trained on retrofitting assessment and provided the necessary equipment and software. In addition, final reports for 50 ward level contingency plans, and seismic assessment and micro zonation maps prepared for 6 cities. CDMP is supporting FSCD in building the capacity to respond to any large scale urban disaster such as fire or earthquake. In 2014, FSCD has initiated the implementation of 10 model fire stations in three major cities at risk for earthquakes – Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet. CDMP has procured small and light rescue equipment and provided to FSCD for the model stations, and the tender process is underway for the construction work. These model fire stations will serve around 1.1 million people within their precincts. In addition to the support to the model fire stations, CDMP has collaborated with FSCD to recruit, train and equip 3208 new volunteers. As a part of the implementation of the Safer City Campaign, CDMP facilitated orientation session for municipalities on the Local Government–Self Assessment Toolkit (LG–SAT), with the purpose of building capacity of city corporation authorities on urban hazards and emergency management. Representatives of 134 city corporations and municipalities (City Mayors and other officials) have received orientations in 2014, bringing the project total up to 234. It is expected that with training, mayors will be able to more effectively design and implement DRR interventions in their respective municipalities. Awareness is the most important aspect of disaster risk reduction, and in the context of Bangladesh, religious leaders play a vital role in communicating to the population. CDMP, in association with the Ministry of Religions Affairs, has developed a training module and provided ToT to 50 Imams.

1.3.2 Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

CDMP has developed Active fault maps and seismic vulnerability maps for 6 cities: Bogra, Dinajpur, Mymensingh, Rajshahi, Rangpur, and Tangail. The risk assessments and maps

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 9

were subsequently used to develop Scenario based spatial contingency plans at city and ward levels (ward level contingency plan in Dhaka-25, Sylhet-10, and Chittagong-15). These plans and maps cover an area of 8 million inhabitants, who will benefit from enhanced earthquake preparedness and quick response capacity. As a pilot initiative, the maps and plans of Mymensingh City has translated into a realistic and risk integrated city development plan which is awarded the Asian Townscape Award 2014 (Japan) by the UN Habitat. In addition, a building database for 50 wards in Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet district can be used to indicate the physical and locational vulnerability of the structures. The methodology may be replicated to other high risk cities as a model case.

Asian Townscapes Jury’s Award for Mymensingh Strategic Development Plan

CDMP-supported Mymensingh Strategic Development Plan (MSDP) was selected for the 2014 Asian Townscapes Jury Award. CentreThe Award aims to highlight and honor significant efforts made by Asian cities and organizations for the improvement, revitalization and creation of a beautiful and harmonious townscapes that are safe, sustainable and respectful of local history and culture. The Theme of 2014 Asian Townscape Award was “Townscapes bridging to the future”.

Development of the MSDP took place as part of the CDMP project “Mainstreaming disaster risk reduction in urban planning practices”. The project, undertaken in agreement with the Government of Bangladesh’s physical planning agency the Urban Development Directorate, began in April 2011.

Paradigm shift in disaster management from its conventional response and relief management approach to a more comprehensive risk reduction culture adopted by the Government of Bangladesh along with its development partners is in progress. Throughout the project, CDMP has channeled its support through government and development partners, civil society and NGOs into a people-oriented disaster management and risk reduction partnership.

While Bangladesh has shown the world how disaster preparation can reduce the number of deaths during flood and cyclones, earthquake risk remains a major threat to human life and safe livelihoods in its cities. .The Mymensingh Strategic Development Plan integrates risk-sensitive land use planning with consideration for the local ecosystem and environment, physical and social infrastructure, economy, and transportation system. Planning guidelines prepared as part of the MSDP call for land use and building permissions to ensure risk sensitive building development, as well as a strengthening of the emergency response capacity through flood mapping and volunteer mobilization. Developed in dialogue with the local community, the plan takes into account local traditions while also looking towards the future. The 20- year prediction model for the municipality’s transportation system aims to support regional connectivity, the promotion on sustainable livelihoods, and a secure economic base for the town.

The MSDP serves as a pilot project for a model of risk-sensitive land use planning, with the potential for replication in other cities and towns of Bangladesh. It has laid down the legal basis through drafting “Urban and Regional Planning Act 2013”. This pilot project is going to prepare a module for mainstreaming Disaster Risk Reduction Measures into Comprehensive Land Use Development Planning and Management. This may act as a manual on how to make Bangladesh’s towns safer, healthier, more eco- sensitive, social, vibrant and resilient to natural and man‐made disasters.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 10

CDMP-II through FSCD is supporting development of 30,000 urban community volunteers (the national target is to train 62,000). So far 26,500 volunteers have been trained in six city corporations: Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Rangpur, Khulna, and Cox’s Bazar. These trained volunteers have successfully demonstrated their skill in different urban incidents, most notably during the Rana Plaza incident during 2013. CDMP has also trained 1940 construction professionals (1000 masons, 760 bar benders and 180 contractors) in earthquake resistant construction techniques.

Assessing the local level risk is a pre-requisite in implementing any risk reduction interventions. CDMP, in its urban risk reduction initiative, developed the Urban Community Risk Assessment (CRA) guideline. This guideline will be a useful tool for the stakeholders in assessing the risk and development of Risk Reduction Action Plan (RRAP) in urban context. 3 CRA has been conducted in three wards of Dhaka South CDMP Trained 1940 construction prfessionals on safe City Corporation (33, 34 & 35) on a pilot basis. construction

In addition to various non-structural interventions (such as training, plans, guideline etc.) to reduce the urban risk, CDMP is also implementing structural interventions targeted to reduce urban hazard such as water logging, drinking water scarcity, reducing earthquake and fire risk etc. So far 42 urban risk reduction schemes have been implemented in 10 city corporations/ municipalities, benefiting around 0.27 million people.

1.4 Preparedness & Response

1.4.1 Progress in 2014

As advised in both the revised Standing Orders on Disaster 2010 and the National Plan for Disaster Management 2010-15, local government and line departments are to develop their own DM plans. With CDMP support, DM plans for 10 districts and 48 Upazilas (see Appendix E for list) – covering a population of 26 million people - were developed and made available online in the National Information Portal in 2014 CDMP has also undertaken a pilot initiative to engage the Bangladesh Ansar & VDP (15 600 members) in disseminating warning messages to vulnerable communities when needed. Furthermore, the CDMP has also contributed significantly to strengthen the early warning dissemination mechanism from its inception. With assistance of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), a baseline survey for damage, loss and needs assessment of 4,500 unions has been completed in 2014. The baseline data is now being used by Department of Disaster Management (DDM) for their Emergency Cyclone Recovery and Restoration Project (ECRP). Additionally, CDMP has also extended support to the UN Humanitarian Coordination Task Team (HCTT) in conducting a Joint Needs Assessment (JNA). Additionally, CDMP has supported the recruitment and training of 2670 new volunteers in basic search and rescue and first aid, as well as volunteers’ gear to the volunteers of six existing Upazilas (Hatiya, Sandwip, Ramgoti, Banskhali, Tecknaf and Moheskhali) Moreover, 897 signal mast installations have been completed in five upazilas (Assasuni & Shyamnagar-Satkhira, Dacope & Koyra-Khulna, Mongla-Bagerhat) and 21 VHF & 6 HF radio sets have been distributed to CPP personnel in 2014.

1.4.2 Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

Improved and more Efficient Early Warning, Response and Relief Management In collaboration with the Armed Forced Division, CDMP has established Audio Visual system to connect the DM Cell in Prime Minister’s Office, the NDRCC and CDMP. This included providing the necessary equipment to the PM’s officeto enhance capacity of the DM cell to respond to the emergencies in a more coordinated fashion. Moreover, DDM has been gradually taking over the operational responsibility of Disaster Management Information Centre (DMIC). Accordingly, DDM have amended their operational chart to assign an official to work closely with the DMIC to improve its capacity to support better decision making and coordination. With CDMP assistance, by now all of the 485 Upazilas are connected with DMIC. A Poly-com Audio Conference system has been installed in the Deputy Commissioner’s conference room in the 26 most hazard prone districts, to help improve coordination throughout the full cycle of disaster management. CDMP has also supported the Bangladesh Flood Forecasting and Warning Centre to upgrade its forecasting system from 3 days to 5 days earlier now4 generated at 54 stations in

the country.The performance assessment during the 2013 monsoon shows that the extended lead time has demonstrated 72% accuracy for the fifth day, which exceeds the 70% acceptance level set by the World Meteorological Organisation. Although the forecast accuracy has been improved, communication of the outcomes to the intended end users has remained a challenge. Honourable Minister of MoDMR has therefore launched the CDMP-supported Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. The IVR system is now available through all mobile service providers in Bangladesh, and enables 110 million cell- phone users to receive early warnings of approaching hydro-meteorological disasters and to be prepared well ahead of time. During cyclone Mahasen in May 2013, more than 60,000 enquires were addressed through IVR, while the total number of enquiries in 2013 exceeded 110,000 (and 80,189 in 2014, showing increasing acceptance and utility. During 2013, early warning was also provided through 40,000 SMS to local DMC Members of 19 cyclone prone districts, to alert them about the approaching hazard, its potential impacts, and possible preparedness activities. Preparedness capacity enhanced As part of Government’s initiative to make the schools safe from disaster, CDMP has so far

 Trained 960 Secondary School teachers, from 480 schools, on how to conduct earthquake safety drills

 Provided 14,000 primary school teachers in 7 divisions with ToT

 Trained 1,200 Upazila Education Officers and Upazila Instructors on how to conduct earthquake safety drills. Due to CDMP advocacy, in 2012 MoE and MoPME issued an office order to organize school safety drills during International Day for Disaster Reduction and National Disaster Preparedness day. Accordingly, 30,000 primary schools and 6,000 secondary schools conducted earthquake safety drills during 2012. To continue the practice, CDMP - in partnership with the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education - developed standardised training manuals on earthquake drills and undertook a massive training programme directed towards school teachers. The Institute of Disaster Management and Vulnerability Studies (IDMVS) of Dhaka University is supporting Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) in organizing training of school teachers and Upazila education officials on earthquake safety. Contingency plans for Dhaka and Chittagong airports were developed in 2013, and followedup with six training workshops on airport emergency contingency plans. As an

additional part of improving the emergency response, 2,000 small parachutes (capacity 17 kg.) for relief distribution to hard-to-reach areas from air have been produced with support from Bangladesh Air Force (BAF). These modified parachutes would improve the airdrop distribution, by allowing for smaller quantities to be distributed in a larger area, instead of bulk amounts in one place. This will reduce the risk of emergency aid being captured by only a few recipients. To strengthen household-level preparedness and safety, 2,000 fishermen in coastal fishing communities have received life-jackets and solar lanterns. Furthermore, 6,000 Life Buoys were delivered to fishing boats in Cox’s Bazar & Patukhali district in 2014. Additionally, 12,000 highly vulnerable families have been provided with family preparedness items (such as plastic box for preserving food grain, water can, life buoys and water proof poly bag to protect important documents. In 2014, emergency preparedness equipment was sent to Gosairhat upazila of , Borhan Uddin Upazila of Bhola district, Galachipa and Dashmina upazilas in Patuakhali district, and Muladi upazila of . Disaster Volunteerism To strengthen and make the community warning systems in the new track of recent cyclones such as SIDR (2007), and AILA (2009) on the south-east coast effective, CDMP has supported the expansion of the Cyclone Preparedness Programme (CPP) areas in 6 new Upazilas in Khulna, Shatkhira and Bagerhat. This has been done through recruitment and training of 6,540 volunteers in 2013. All in all, 49,215 volunteers have been provided with training - initial training to 6,540 newly recruited volunteers and one-day orientation to 42,675 existing volunteers. Considering the increased risk of rainfall induced landslide hazard in south-eastern Bangladesh including Chittagong Hill Tracts and recent landslide events (127 death in 2007, 60 death in 2010, 17 death in 2011)5, CDMP as a pilot initiative, recruited, trained and provided light equipments to community based landslide volunteers in Cox’s Bazar (43 volunterrs) & Teknaf (15volunteers).

SAVING LIVES FROM LANDSLIDES Over the last decade, hundreds of people have died in landslides in Bangladesh; last year alone over 100 people perished in what could have been preventable tragedies. Anwara, Shahidullah and 57 other CDMP landslide volunteers have taken it upon themselves to reduce that number to zero. As so often happens, their work began in their own backyard. Anwara and Shahidullah used loudspeakers to warn local people of heavy rainfall and potential landslides and instructed their neighbours to get ready and move to the nearest shelter. “We were on the road Mr. Azharul Islam, Md. Shahidullah and Ms. doing our rounds till midnight on 15 May, 2013 and Anwara are nothing short of lifesavers. luckily for us no untoward incident happened”, says Ms Anwara. Earlier that day, the Bangladesh Meteorological Office issued warning that landslides may occur due to heavy rainfall induced by the cyclonic storm Mahasen in Chittagong Division’s hilly regions. Some residents in hilly areas of Cox’s Bazar and Teknaf received further details and more frequent updates from landslide volunteers who are part of the CDMP-supported landslide early warning system. Developed by CDMP, with support from ADPC, volunteers were provided with information about landslides and related preparedness measures. Equipped with rain gauges to read and monitor daily rainfall, they used their skills to analyse precipitation thresholds in the case of heavy rainfall induced by cyclone and monsoon. Ms. Anwara added, “We were trained to disseminate warning when necessary. During the monsoon season, we also monitor the rainfall on a regular basis.” While the danger of landslides was averted in May, several days of incessant downpour inundated Cox’s Bazar again by the end of June. This time it rendered many people homeless and the rainwater showed shagging slope soils ready to turn into landslides anytime. Anwara, Shahidullah and others were on their feet again, doing the door-to-door visits to their neighbourhood and surrounding areas to warn people about the on-going heavy rainfall and the probable landslides that could follow. Overnight, some 50 people from 10 of the most exposed households heeded the volunteers’ warning and evacuated to safe ground. In one of those neighbourhoods, at around 2.30 pm, a sudden mudslide decimated four houses, including that of Ms. Hasina. While Ms. Hasina is heartbroken over the loss of her home, she is eternally grateful to the landslide volunteers who warned her just an hour before the landslide - saving both her own and her husband’s lives. Several landslide incidents took place also in other places in Cox’s Bazar. The next day a chunk of earth fell on the house of Rezaul Karim in Saikatpara village, killing his four year old son Sakib and leaving his wife Taiyaba Begum seriously injured. There were several landslides in Mohajer village, but luckily people were not in any danger as they had been warned by Anwara and Shahidullah, and had left for the designated shelters. The community-based landslide warning consistently managed to save lives. Ms. Anwara is proud of her work, “I volunteer because it makes me feel good. I get to help my neighbours and maybe, if I’m lucky, save lives along the way”, she says. Her modesty belies the fact that with a little training and a lot of heart she and the other volunteers have managed to save lives. It is not often that any of us can say that.

1.5. Mainstreaming DRR & CCA into Sectoral Policies and Planning

1.5.1 Progress in 2014

To establish a legislative and planning environment supportive of proactive risk reduction, CDMP has actively assisted the government in drafting and finalizing a legal framework for all disaster management activities in the country. To support mainstreaming efforts, a “Guideline for Integrating DRR and CCA into Development Planning and Budgeting Processes of the Fisheries and Livestock Sectors” and a “Guideline for Mainstreaming DRR and CCA in Agriculture, Fisheries and Livestock Services” have been prepared. A number of training modules have also been prepared for sectors that include agriculture, water and fisheries. The key points of progress in 2014 and partners in their implementation have been: - Bangladesh Flood Forecast and Warning Centre: A pilot initiative on using the IVR for flash flood forecast has been implemented in Sunamganj district, based on a first- time ward level profiling along embankments. This structure-based forecasting is enabling managers to find weak points in embankments - Bangladesh Meteorological Department: The process of information sharing from the observatories has been entirely digitized. As a result, weather information can be accessed anywhere in the country, and around the world, from the BMD website. High speed bandwidth is allowing information to be sent quickly to the media and the ministry. - Department of Environment and Climate Change Cell: 300 DoE staff including government officials have received training on preparing climate resilient development projects. Guidelines on climate proofing for different sectors are in the process of being developed by DoE. The intention is to help build the capacity of sectoral departments and agencies to develop climate sensitive projects in their respective sectors. - Department of Agricultural Extension: CCA technologies are being demonstrated and implemented. The agricultural machinery provided is enabling the farmer groups to accumulate savings of up to 2 to 3 lac takas and to practise within-group loans at low interest rate. As a result of ICT support, the DAE control room has been strengthened in 52 Upazilas of the 26 districts of DAE working areas.This has enabled staffto provide online reports, making temperature data, rainfall data, as well as area-based production data and fertilizer status from all over Bangladesh, available on the DAE website. - Department of Livestock Services: Around 600 DLS officers have received training on bio-security measures and have in their turn raised the awareness of other DLS officers at meetings and different forums. They have also been giving training to farmers and dairy farmers on precaution against anthrax during cold spells. - Department of Women Affairs: The DWA has prepared a “Gender Toolkit” for disaster issues, to incorporate gender sensitivity in its policies, projects, programmes and documents.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 16

1.5.1 Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

In terms of creating a supportive institutional environment leading to the inclusion of DRR and CCA in current and planned projects of the different government departments, the following results have been achieved: Bangladesh Meteorological Department: - The dynamic BMD Website (www.bmd.gov.bd) has been redesigned and upgraded under CDMP, and now provides people with all types of weather information along with a weather bulletin and seven days weather forecast. - Previously, all data were collected and entered manually. Now, using the climate database management system, data generated from the observatories are archived automatically and can be easily accessed for any year, date and area. - Solar energy installations at the weather observatories keep the system functioning even if there is no sunshine for three days. - As a result of skill development, the staff’s accuracy in analyzing information has improved, raising the accuracy of data from the weather observatories.

Flood Forecasting and Warning Centre (FFWC):

- As has been shown by the Asian Development Bank’s early warning systems assessment, communities can save more than 70% of their movable resources/capital goods, if they get five days advance warning on flood events. As the FFWC flood forecast lead time has been increased from 3 to 5 days, the lives, livelihoods and assets security of the 88 million people living in four river basin areas of Bangladesh has therefore increased. The forecast is made available on the FFWC website. - The FFWC website was revamped in July 2014 under CDMP to make it more dynamic, and since then it has already received more than 80,000 hits.

There have also been some associated results from other interventions of CDMP II:

- Around three million people are benefitting from easier access to improved early warning of and response to cyclones through the expansion of the Cyclone Preparedness Programme to six new upazilas of two districts (Khulna and Satkhira). - Over 110 million mobile phone subscribers have been provided access to Interactive Voice Response based early warning dissemination by dialling the number 10941. - Radios and batteries, distributed by CDMP II, are helping community radio broadcasting stations to produce quality radio programming on DRR and CCA, and enabling thousands of people to receive weather forecasts. The community radio stations situated in the coastal zone have already extended their broadcasting hours with CDMP’s help.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 17

Geological Survey of Bangladesh: - The seismic zonation maps developed have helped identify zones that are at risk of earthquakes. The local population of these areas have been cautioned to move out in times of such events to take shelter in specified locations. Information has been disseminated regarding safe roads to shelters, the nearest hospitals, and other points of congregation. - The capacity of the GSB staff in working with seismic microzonation has been raised. This is the first time that the department has worked on active fault identification in the country. They have developed this capacity by working with foreign experts with support from CDMP. In order to ensure that the knowledge and expertise are not lost over time, junior officers are now learning through knowledge transfer from their seniors. Furthermore, a network of GSB staff, experts and companies has been established both at home and abroad to facilitate easy sharing of knowledge and data. - With CDMP funding, the GSB has received certain instruments for the first time, such as the combined seismometer and accelerometers. Additionally, as many as 30 accelerometers had been installed in the first phase of the programme and 10 more have been installed in the second phase.

Climate Change Cell of the Department of Environment: - The operation of the Cell has helped incorporate climate change issues in the amended National Environment Policy, 2013. The policy will help enforce integration of adaptation and mitigation issues into all development projects, to tackle the adverse impacts of climate change across the country. The Cell has become a knowledge hub, with researchers, practitioners, academia, NGO professionals and others visiting every day for information and knowledge documents. - The Cell has also produced two documentaries for use in climate change advocacy and diplomacy initiatives both at home and abroad. The documentaries, one on the impacts of climate change and the other on tracking climate-induced displaced people, serve as supportive documents to show Bangladesh’s vulnerabilities to climate change. - Data and information services may be accessed by stakeholders and organisations from the comprehensive web-enabled database on climate change developed by the Cell, which is the first of its kind in the country. The database facilitates research and necessary and relevant policy and programme development.

Fire Service and Civil Defence: - As mentioned earlier in the report (see section on Urban Risk Reduction), there has been a focus on recruiting volunteers to aid the FSCD. These volunteers are capable of providing valuable assistance during fire hazards, floods and other major disasters. Taking the initiative to train women volunteers is particularly significant, as women do not traditionally participate in disaster relief activities, which can be a problem when providing assistance to female victims.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 18

- The volunteer training programme brings together a diverse group of people in reducing disaster risk. The volunteers, although mostly high school students, also include doctors, engineers and high level government officers. In some cases, entire families step up to take part in the programme, inspired or influenced by a particular Urban Community Volunteers in Rana Plaza rescue work event. - These volunteers are taking on a leading role in community response to disasters, and proved their value in the search and rescue operations during the Rana Plaza collapse in April 2013. At the time of the collapse, 3,122 workers were estimated to be inside the building As many as 920 volunteers worked shifts for 19 days, risking their own lives to save others. Close to 2,500 lives were saved during the search and rescue operation.

Department of Agricultural Extension: - As part of the curriculum of the Climate Field School, a field day is observed involving a huge gathering from the community. On that day, the technology introduced to the CFS farmers and various types of disaster related knowledge are shared with the community. The event serves to motivate the local people into adopting the technologies Training on Dry Seedbed Technology demonstrated, such as the use of new rice varieties more tolerant to flood or saline water. - Many of the CFS farmers have been trained in implementing the Manikganj Model of dry seedbed technology. The model is used for raising seedlings during cold spells and rice production in the dry season. The project has received a national award as an innovative response to climate change impact on crop cultivation. - Another striking result of climate change adaptation in agriculture is the quick harvest of paddy by farmers before flash floods occur. This is possible due to the paddy/wheat reaper and small water monitoring tool provided through the CFS to farmers. Normally, around 3500 taka is required for harvesting one acre of land with paddy/wheat, with the involvement of 10-12 labourers. However, a single operator

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 19

can use the reaper and achieve the same task in only 1.5 to 2 hours, at one third of the cost. - The implications of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation in crop selection is becoming a part of the DAE’s planning strategy. Previously, the focus was on how and what crop would bring more yields, whereas now the department is looking at not just the yield but also what to do against disaster risk. At the krishi projukti mela, or agricultural fair, held in December, 2014 in Dacope upazila, the DAE arranged to include the technology demonstrated in the FSCs.

Department of Fisheries: - Thousands of farmers and DoF officers have been trained in a cross-sectoral collaborative effort between the DoF, DAE and the DLS, supported by CDMP. Ten model villages have been set up with integrated interventions in the three sectors. - Fish farmers used to practice a single crop throughout the year, which carried high risks. Now, with the introduction of the safe aquaculture method, they have successfully learnt how to harvest two types of fish crops twice a year. - In response to climate change, fish sanctuary projects for the enhancement of fish biodiversity, and beel nurseries for stock enhancement, are now being initiated. - As per a directive issued by the Director General of the DoF, the training module on CCA has been replicated as a part of its regular training programme, and funded by the department’s own fund to train 40 of its staff.

Department of Livestock Services: - CC adaptation technology demonstrations and farmer meetings in 50 targeted upazilas have increased awareness on local disasters. Awareness has been created in a participatory approach where the farmers themselves were encouraged to identify themselves the disasters that occurred in their own areas. - To adapt to flood situations, farmers are being advised to estimate the flood levels in their areas in the past 10 years and to construct their farms 3 feet above the recorded highest flood level. - A local volunteer programme has been launched in Hatia Island to vaccinate livestock and poultry against the foot and mouth disease in the wake of floods. Local livestock assistants have received skills-training in providing support to livestock. - Resilient Integrated agricultural model villages are being established in 3 upazilas integrating agriculture, livestock and fisheries to help the villagers sustain and adapt themselves to any kind of disaster. So far, 50 farms have been to participate.

National Curriculum and Textbook Board: - Over 18 million students (8 to 17 years of age) now have access to DRR and CCA information, as it has been included in their textbooks - As a result of awareness-raising workshops held in three divisions for teachers, education officers and school management committee members, the participants

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 20

have pledged their commitment to take action to advocate and disseminate DRR and CCA knowledge in schools, among guardians, and to local communities.

Department of Public Health Engineering: - The steps that the DPHE has taken since the cyclone Aila hit the country, provides over a million of the affected people with better access to safe drinking water. Its activities have significantly reduced the risk of water borne diseases. - More than 550,000 women now have improved access to safe drinking water, as a result of which the risk of acquiring water-borne diseases has been reduced. Their domestic workload - traveling long distances to fetch water and having to make do with very little water for household chores- has been reduced, along with the number of cases of abuse associated with disaster periods. - Rainwater harvesting units installed at household and community levels are benefiting the people of those areas where deep tube wells cannot be installed due to lowering of the water table. The rainwater harvesting units ensure safe drinking water for the community year round. - Tube wells with high raised platforms as precaution against flooding and multi- headed tube wells - each serving many users through multiple connections - are benefiting the communities of many areas. - As a result of CDMP support, it has been possible for the department to select project intervention locations independently, without any political influence. The intervention sites have all been selected based on the vulnerability of each area as well as community requirement.

Department of Women Affairs: CDMP has successfully advocated for the incorporation of gender issues in key policies and capacities of the government and in cyclone shelter design and features. Training on how to address the vulnerabilities of women and how to ensure equal opportunities in pre- and post-disaster situations has also been provided – both to district relief and rehabilitation officers, as well as upazila level project implementing officers of the DWA. With the help of CDMP, the DWA has prepared a Contingency Plan to cope with earthquake hazards. IEC materials such asposters and leaflets have been developed to raise awareness on the need for gender sensitivity in disaster response.

Directorate General of Health Services: Two disaster related guidelines have been developed:  A health-related comprehensive post-earthquake action guideline for urban cities, developed in accordance with the National Strategy on Disaster Management. This guideline provides an action plan on response and short-term recovery operations related to earthquakes.  A non-structural vulnerability assessment and guideline has also been developed for hospitals at central, district and upazila levels. This one is mainly intended for

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 21

hospital staff and managers who bear the responsibility of ensuring the stability of the hospital structures and assets during earthquakes. It may also be used by hospital authorities and disaster risk managers responsible for hospital emergency preparedness. Health service providers in three upazilas have received training in EPR (Emergency Preparedness and Response) for response and rescue of disaster victims. A National Health Crisis Management and Archive Centre for disaster records and early warning is now operational. Through this centre, the DGHS maintains, collects and analyses data from all sources, such as local health authorities, the BMD, and different government and non-government sources. The DGHS also updates its Emergency Management Databank using information from that centre.

Short-term Safe Aquaculture: An initiative for Climate Change Adaptation in model village The north and north-western drought-prone areas and coastal regions of Bangladesh are particularly sensitive to specific hydro-meteorological climatic and human induced hazards. The north-western region of Bangladesh is historically drought prone. These droughts are associated with erratic monsoon rains and with intermittent dry spells coinciding with critical stages for aquaculture and fisheries. Aquaculture in this region is highly vulnerable due to both extreme flood and drought. Additionally, salinity resulting from prolonged dry spells and reduction of upstream river flow is likely to intrude far inland, destroying fresh water fisheries and their diversity in many areas. To identify risks in the fisheries sector and further strengthen the capacities of Department of Fisheries (DoF) in respect to Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation, DoF is implementing a partnership programme with CDMP. Major impacts of climate change like changes in temperature, reduced water retention period, and low and untimely rainfall are identified as limiting factors for aquaculture. Considering these risks, “Short-term Safe Aquaculture” using the higher and lower temperature tolerant modified monosex species ‘Tilapia’ for a safe period of December to April is being piloted in the flood prone areas. Five demonstration ponds were established in late December 2012 in the village Khalsiin . The ponds were establishedin a contributory manner where farmers’ contribution was about 40% of total cost. The farmers were provided with training, monosex ‘Tilapia’ fingerlings, technical support, pellet floating feed, fertilizers, and netting. All fishes were harvested in May 2013 in the presence of other villagers on the farmer’s field day, with senior officers from DoF also present. Most of the farmers attending were impressed at seeing the result and profit of culturing monosex tilapia during the risk free period, and showed interest to adopt the culture as CCA. The trial indicates that the Short-term Safe Aquaculture using monsex tilapia would be an excellent variety for CCA as it is fast growing and temperature tolerant at both end. Farmers could get a return within short time- four months only. Based on the result of the demonstration, the technology has been extended to another 45 ponds in different agro-ecological zones, for further trial before nation-wide extension.

1.6 Community Level Climate Change Adaptation

1.6.1 Progress and Results in 2014

During 2014, a study on trends of internal displacement due to disaster and climate change impacts has been completed, disseminated, and made available in the online DM library. Based on earlier study findings on climate parameters, drought and local risk maps, 3 policy briefs were developed during 2014 to assist the policy makers on informed decision making. Another study on ‘Adaptation Test of Improved Fodder Varieties in the Coastal Area of Bangladesh’ was initiated and is still in progress.

Building capacity of the partner ministries and agencies on CCA is a major task of CDMP. During 2014, a total of 52 government officials of different ministries and agencies have been provided with training on climate change adaption, adding up to a project total of 138 trained officials. The training programme was focused on updated information and facts on climate change science, impacts, adaptation and institutional aspects. It is expected that the trained officials will be able to disseminate the lessons learned in their respective ministries/departments, and contribute to making DRR-CCA inclusive programmes in their respective departments. With an aim to continue giving these trainings even after CDMP, a handbook for the trainers titled “Climate Change Adaptation: A Trainer’s Handbook” has been developed, incorporating the lessons learned from the trainings. The manual will be used for future trainings of government officials of partner ministries and departments.

Three separate ‘Adaptation and Risk reduction Toolkits’ - on flood and flash floods, cyclones and salinity, and drought - have been developed. The purpose is to support front-line and field level training and extension staff in providing easy and readily available local level disaster and climate change adaptation actions solution measures to people in local communities. In addition, Multi- Hazard Risk Atlases have been prepared and published 500 copies for 10 selected Upazilas (as listed in Annex - G), to support the local level risk reduction and adaptation planning with vulnerability, exposure and risk information. During the consultation for developing the Multi-Hazard Risk Atlas, stakeholders also requested CDMP to develop more Risk Atlases for other vulnerable upazilas. Based on the request, preparation of second lot of Risk Atlases has been initiated for another 28 Upazilas (as listed in Annex - G).

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 23

Based on study findings on the issues of non-farm livelihoods and internal displacement, CDMP has planned to implement a number of structural and non-structural interventions. Accordingly, 20 climate change adaptation schemes have been approved by CDMP technical committee. The schemes are to be implemented through UzDMCs to enhance the livelihood capabilities of more than 2000 people in the six districts of Patuakhali, Barguna, Pirojpur, Khulna, Bagerhat and Gopalganj.

1.6.2 Major Activity Progress and Results since 2010

Filling the Knowledge gaps on Climate Change Adaptation CDMP, with the objective of filling gaps of available knowledge on climate change and adaptation, has completed four studies which have generated trend and future scenarios of climate parameters and drought, local level inundation risk maps (for flood and storm surge), salinity intrusion scenarios, and locally suited non-farm livelihood options. In 2012, Union Factsheets containing information on the demography, climate, hazard, infrastructure and other resources were developed for 1700 unions and distributed to the union and Upazila authorities to assist their risk assessments and planning for subsequent risk reduction interventions.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 24

2. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

2.1 Performance indicators and progress tracking:

As per the approved Annual Work Plan (following No Cost Extension Plan 2014-15), M&E has developed a progress tracking tool for performance indicators. The activities are now further broken down to micro processes, and this is now performing as Information Management System for decision support. The critical path for the NCE activities are already shared with all relevant parties for their tracking, and may be found annexed here.

Figure: Snapshot of Performance indicators and progress tracking

2.2 Assessment of the recent flood:

CDMP has, through its Local Disaster Risk Reduction Fund (LDRRF), implemented a range of interventions in areas at high risk of flooding in nearly all the 2014 flood-affected districts. These structural interventions comprise of a range of infrastructure types including killa (raised ground), road cum embankments, flood resistant housing, and water and sanitation services. When flooding had affected approximately 2 million people in July and August 2014, CDMP teams visited LDRRF sites to conduct a rapid assessment of the relevance and impact of the infrastructure created. Summary findings: i) Household level intervention: Assessment teams visited 7 comprehensive household interventions located at Belkuchi, Sirajgonj (2); Kazipur, Sirajgonj (1); Chowhali, Sirajgonj; Fulchari Gaibandah (1); Dimla, Nilphamari (1) and Sindurna,

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 25

Lalmonirhat (1). ii) Under these 7 interventions, 685 household’s plinth had been raised, 650 sanitary latrines had been built, and 272 tube wells installed. It was found that there were only 2 houses damaged. That the damage was worse than it might have been was largely due to lack of maintenance by the household owners. A total of 623 houses were affected during the flood period, and were saved the households. Neighbouring people also sheltered from flood in the LDRRF areas, representing a secondary benefit. iii) Road cum embankment: Assessment teams visited 24 road cum embankment interventions in Sirajgonj (6), Nilphamari (2), Lalmonirhat (3), Tangail (12) and Rangpur (1). Of these, four road cum embankments in Tangail were partially damaged and eroded, letting the water enter into agricultural fields. Total road cum embankment length was 37.6 km, of which about 250 meters were eroded and about 500 meters were partially damaged. This means that less than 2% of the total road cum embankment constructed had been damaged. iv) Flood shelter / Killa: Assessment teams visited 9 flood shelters/killa in Sirajgonj (4), Nil (1), Tangail (3), Lalmonirhat (1). Among these, a killa in the worst-affected flood area Chowhali, Sirajgonj district, saved the neighbouring villagers and their livestock during the flood period. A shortage of flood shelters (only 99 shelters were active in the affected districts) made thousands of displaced people and their livestock take shelter on nearby roads, embankments and killas. Overall, the LDRRF-supported schemes were appropriate to the hazard type. On low-lying, flood-prone land, the raising of safe areas for shelter in times of flood, along with adequate provision of water and sanitation, is a relevant and high-impact intervention. All teams saw examples of infrastructure interventions that served their basic purpose of protecting lives, livelihoods and assets. In some locations hundreds of families took shelter, sometimes for several weeks. There were many positive examples of the people living in relatively safer areas supported by LDRRF interventions extending shelter to their neighbours in need. Beneficiaries and local authorities in more or less all sites visited mentioned that they were happy with the impact of LDRRF interventions, especially killas, and that they used them to take shelter when needed. Some examples of the positive impact of a more comprehensive approach, for example killas enhanced by adequate provision of water and sanitation facilities, were noted.

However, assessment teams noted some areas for improvement as follows: i) Design issues: there were few cases of improper design, for example an embankment built below the highest known flood height, which was inundated; some embankments were not long enough, allowing flood water to inundate areas intended to be protected; part of an embankment cutting across a canal was not built with an appropriate culvert and was eventually breached by flood water A killa constructed in Chowhali Upazila had toilets and tube wells, but was unused as it was covered by flood water. In the case of a killa at Elasin Union, Delduar

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 26

Upazila, Tangail, it was not flooded, but lacked a proper approach road and water supply & sanitation facilities. The cause of these problems is difficult to attribute, but will be looked in to further. ii) Quality issues: the majority of roads cum embankments and killas were constructed with sand or soil, as these are considered as secondary line of Defence. In all cases there was no provision designed into the project to protect the sides of the embankment. It was found that some communities had spontaneously planted trees on the embankments to stabilize slopes. Without protection such structures are not normally strong enough to withstand the water force and waves during a flood and are therefore at a higher risk of erosion and damage, sometimes catastrophic. There was a report of insufficient compaction at one site. iii) Targeting issues: there were some examples of infrastructure that stopped short of including everyone in the community, resulting in some community members benefitting and others not. However, it appeared that no clear criteria existed for determining which people benefitted and which did not. In some cases, families who did benefit from housing developments were themselves asking why others did not benefit. In another case, new shelters on a raised platform and water and sanitation facilities were built on a newly raised island. This raises questions about the appropriate policy on disaster displacement. Should the Government of Bangladesh seek to reduce vulnerability wherever it is found or seek to locate people in marginally less risky locations? iv) Community engagement: in the case of some interventions, like road cum embankments and killa, it was found that the community had not been engaged in the earthwork and construction of the facilities, with the work done by the labor contracting societies instead. These interventions were originally envisaged as short term employment generation opportunities for the local communities, an involvement which in turn would help ensure stronger feelings of ownership and future voluntary maintenance. It had also been expected that the paid labor would provide a short-term boost to household income, especially to women, and therefore contribute to a reduction in economic vulnerability. v) Ownership issues: some beneficiaries reported that they did not play a role, or intend to play a role, in the ongoing maintenance of infrastructure because there was a sense that the infrastructure was a “government” project and not theirs. In one instance community members showed the visiting team part of an embankment which had beenwashed away, but they did not reinforce even though the breach placed their own homes at risk. However, there were also two instances found where community members and authorities had taken steps to protect LDRRF infrastructure as a means of reducing their own vulnerability. vi) Communication issues: many targeted beneficiaries reported that they did not receive any kind of early warning (EW). However, many community members also mentioned that their own knowledge of their environment and natural warning signs provided some early indications of likely flooding. Across all sites several different means of EW were mentioned: through the government and UPs, through

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 27

NGOs and by SMS (from an unknown source), and through EW messages broadcasted on radio. However, these sporadic instances did not amount to effective dissemination of early warning. vii) Consistency issues: while it was clear that there was value in raising ground, the impact of interventions was reduced by the absence of a consistent package of interventions. For example, some killas did not provide water and sanitation. Whereas the killa itself provided sanctuary, the lack of clean water and safe sanitation exposed people to communicable disease risks. This issue is of particular importance to women and girls, and was mentioned as an issue by them in multiple locations. viii) Future risk: as a result of river erosion, some infrastructure is now located very close to a major river and have a higher likelihood of failure to protect communities from future floods If not maintained. LDRRF has not been able to secure commitments for future maintenance and reinforcement. ix) Knowledge, skills and behaviour: LDRRF has focused exclusively on structural interventions. The fund has not invested at all in communication or behavioural change activities that could have increased the sense of ownership of the infrastructure. It appeared that in many sites some of the population were unaware of how the DM system down to the community level was supposed to assist them with early warning and entitlements. The same could also be said of the UDMCs. x) Sustainability and added value of LDRRF: In a very dynamic landscape, with habitable land being both created and destroyed by the power of the flood water, it is inevitable that the kind of relatively low cost infrastructure provided will be, in many cases, a temporary solution. A strategy for adaptable and sustained risk reduction, including the migration / displacement consequences of flooding, is required. This has not been addressed by the LDRRF interventions or CDMP more generally and is a major policy advocacy issue to consider. xi) At the same time the value added of LDRRF should be scrutinized given that there are much bigger and probably cheaper infrastructure providers in Bangladesh including the LGED and the MoDMR’s own social safety nets program. The question should be asked as to whether the DM Fund envisaged by the DM Act should be a standalone program of construction, or whether it should seek to add value to existing systems of infrastructure development and maintenance.

2.3 Interim programme evaluation

An interim evaluation of the program was designed in 2014 as three different modules (i) LDRRF systems assessment (ToR drafted) for outcome 2 and 3 (ii) six small assessment/studies (EOI advertised) for outcome 1 and 4-6, and (iii) value for money assessment for CDMP results. RFP evaluation for these studies is in progress.. The six studies are:

Results will be shared with Government and Development Partners as soon as they are ready.

2.4 LDRRF Independent Monitoring

MIDAS, the UNDP-engaged independent monitoring agency, submitted their 2nd phase assessment report on LDRRF process monitoring on implementing schemes. Based on the rigorous assessment of 824 schemes across the country, MIDAS has attributed a number of findings and recommendation form the stakeholders and beneficiaries. According to their assessment a total of 2,764,300 people are getting direct benefits from the LDRRF interventions, of which 1.3 million are women. Some of their findings are as follows:

● 96.4% respondents said that risk and hazard were covered by the interventions. ● 97.4% mentioned that the interventions reduce the effect of sector specific hazard(s). ● 99.7% respondents mentioned that the interventions were correctly implemented in natural disaster-prone areas where the probability and frequency of the natural disasters are very high. ● 60.8% respondents told that the interventions were adequate to reduce the vulnerability. ● 94% of respondents urged that more interventions are required to reduce their vulnerability to disaster ● 95% of respondents assured that interventions are accessible to all community people ● 99% of respondents confirm that local community people were involved in the intervention during implantation process ● 40% of respondents informed that the LDRRF schemes have not consider the gender issues during implementation of the project ● 85% of respondents replied that the Union Parishad should be responsible operations and maintenance of the LDRRF interventions

The summary of the recommendations that captured from the respondents are as follows: 1. More DRR interventions to be implemented according to community needs. 2. In designing risk reduction interventions, attention should be given to social and technical issues like: gender needs, need of persons with disabilities, needs of adolescents, needs of elderly people, religious norms, population size, soil

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 29

conditions, disaster/ hazard types, pattern, intensity & gravity. 3. Implement more drinking water interventions in saline and arsenic prone areas like solar powered pump with pipe line distribution, 4. Establish more killas with approach roads, dams/veribundhs-cum-roads (metallic/ brick soling) with sluice-gate, embankments and dams with brick soling roads in high-tide or flood prone areas 5. Raise house plinths (Highest Flood Level) in low lying coastal belt and flood-prone char areas 6. Facilitate business and income-generating training and awareness building session to save people in local communities from adverse socioeconomic effects of disaster. 7. Increase women’s representation in the project activities

2.5 Value for Money Estimates

CDMP-II interventions, especially early warning systems, have achieved benefits which clearly outweigh costs, and thus provide value for money. Below are a handful of examples of monetised quantification of CDMP II value for money6.

 Five-day flood forecast: The improved FFWC forecast benefits 19.5 million households living in river basins. The increased two days of forecast would as per ADB7 estimates make it possible for households to save additionally 20% of their movable assets. Assuming two major events of flooding country-wide over a ten- year period, affecting 2 million households each time (a very conservative estimate), a 10% discount rate and a very cautious estimate of $ 26 worth of assets additionally saved per household gives a benefit-cost ratio of 100:1. For every dollar invested there is $ 100 return.  Early warning IVR information: 110 million subscribers can receive early warning through Interactive Voice Response. One person can have multiple SIM cards; however, GSMA estimates unique subscriber penetration to be 50% of the Bangladeshi population, which is corroborated by findings of HIES 2010. This would give at least 75 million IVR beneficiaries, at a very low cost of 1 $ Cent per beneficiary to set up and operationalize the IVR system  Search and rescue operations after the Rana Plaza incident: The Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY) approach can be used to quantify and monetise benefits of lives saved through effective disaster response. Based on around 2,500 lives saved after Rana Plaza and using 2012 GNI per capita ($ 950)8 for the value of each DALY, benefits amount to $ 71,250,000, based on 30 DALYs saved per person rescued alive. Total CDMP II cost for FSCD is $ 3 million, which gives a BCR of 23.7:1 (assuming attribution to trained volunteers and professional rescuers and provision of rescue

equipment to FSCD)9. CDMP II cost per life year saved comes to $ 40. The high level of monetised benefits would mean that benefits outweigh not only the component cost, but also total expected expenditure of CDMP II.  Local risk reduction: Based on an estimate of 3 million LDRRF beneficiaries, the cost per beneficiary comes to $ 8. This compares favourably against other similar interventions, like the Enhancing Community Resilience programme in Malawi, reporting a cost per beneficiary of $ 36, the programme Response to Predictable Humanitarian Emergencies and Support to Early Recovery in Pakistan at a cost of $ 13 per beneficiary, and one of the schemes under Bangladesh Disaster Preparedness and Response Programme at around $ 38 per beneficiary.  VfM leveraging ratio for new programming: CDMP II experience has been used in the design of two new programmes in Bangladesh, with likelihood that the design of more new programmes can be informed by CDMP evidence. Taking into account Bangladesh Urban Resilience Project ($ 125 million by World Bank) and Bangladesh Seismic Risk Mitigation and Emergency Preparedness (over $ 14 million by Islamic Development Bank), which both used CDMP experience for their design, gives a VfM leveraging ratio of 2.2 against expected CDMP II expenditure.

9 Only part of CDMP cost for FSCD relates to the Rana Plaza rescue operation, and similarly only part of the benefit can be attributed to CDMP support. For simplicity of calculation we here assume that partial cost and partial benefits balance out.

3. COMMUNICATION AND VISIBILITY

. In observance of the National Preparedness Day (March 27, 2014) and to sensitize senior level journalists on DRR and CCA, CDMP in partnership with the Daily Prothom Alo organized a roundtable titled “The Role of media in Disaster Management”. The roundtable was held on March 19, 2014 and received full page coverage published on the NDPD. (http://epaper.prothom- alo.com/view/dhaka/2014-03-27/12). . In order to sensitize and educate mid-level journalists, CDMP in partnership with Dhaka Reporters' Unity (DRU) and Bangladesh Climate Journalists Forum organized a workshop on ‘DRR and CCA: Role of journalists’ on June 11, 2014. Mr. Hasanul Haq Inu, Honourable Minister, Ministry of Information; Dr Hasan Mahmud, Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee for the MoEF; Mr. Mezbah ul Alam, Secretary, MoDMR, Mr. Elias Khan Secretary, DRU attended the inauguration session. 40 participants from print and electronic media attended the workshop. . CDMP has sensitized and educated all 14 community radio stations on DRR and CCA; and carried out a location specific hazard communication in building community resilience. In August 2014 Radio Chilmari, Kurigram broadcasted special programs on flood for 2 out of 3 hours of its operation. The programs covered flood preparedness and response issues with special emphasis on how to save crops and livestock. . CDMP has also sensitized and educated senior and mid-level journalists from 13 disaster prone districts. Emphasis was given to report on disaster risk reduction and creating awareness about individual, family and community’s role in preparedness. . Furthermore, CDMP has promoted the E-Library on Disaster Management (www.dmic.org.bd/e-library). The library has had huge success: between March 18, 2014 and December 31, 2014 the e-library was accessed around 600,000 times and 27,000 items were downloaded from the e-library. It has been promoted regionally, nationally and locally using direct mail, an inaugural event with the presence of Minister and Secretary of MoDMR and other relevant stakeholders, stickers, leaflets, and through referral communication. . Rajshahi University has received CDMP support to offer a separate 3 credit course on Disaster Management for Masters Students of Journalism and Mass Communication Department. . Observance of NDPD and IDDR: In observance of NDPD 100,000 posters on Fire Hazard and 20,000 NDPD thematic posters were printed and distributed across the country. CDMP supported the organization of a National Seminar and Exhibition; NDPD newspaper supplements for one Bengali and English dailies, and supported TeleTalk for IVR campaign. Similar support was extended in observance of IDDR 2014. . For communicating CDMP news and events, a separate web extension has been developed (www.cdmp.org.bd/newscentre) and updated with over 30 details of events, news in media and stories of change. Some of the CDMP produced video is also uploaded under this extension. . Visits by Development Partners to CDMP and project locations have been facilitated with the help of a preparation communication package and presentation.

4. CHALLENGES, LESSON LEARNED AND PROMISING INITIATIVES

Since inception there have been several challenges in implementing CDMP interventions, some of which have been effectively overcome, while a few issues are still to be resolved. The lessons learned during implementation, mitigating challenges underway, will be helpful for the successful completion of the CDMP II as well as any other future programme/projects. A summary of the major challenges and lessons learned are as follows:

National Ownership The project has been criticized for an apparent lack of national ownership and sustainability. The MoDMR has not accepted this criticism and senior officials have consistently stated their ownership and commitment to CDMP results. However, some lessons learned are: - NEX implementation alone does not guarantee national ownership. - It is imperative to establish a common set of expectations with key stakeholders on sustainability at the outset, and to map out the steps that all stakeholders will take to achieve sustainable results. - It is important that the project Steering Committee should meet regularly and measure project outputs against the achievement of the strategic outcomes and take action to align the two. - There are many actors involved in disaster management in Bangladesh. Management of a comprehensive DM project has to be done in close and continuous dialogue with a broad range of main actors, including civil society, the UN system and Development Partners. - All implementation should be demand-driven, and based on a thorough and robust assessment of needs and preferences of the client. Supply-side delivery does not tend to achieve sustainable results.

Management Concerns about management and leadership practices within CDMP have been long standing, documented as far back as the MTR in 2012. The management structure set out in the project document has not been allowed to function as intended. - Opportunities for mid-course correction presented through the MTR and other reviews have to be taken seriously to ensure project success. - Performance management processes for NPDs should include a 360 degree evaluation that includes feedback from key stakeholders including UNDP and DPs. - Clear delineation of management responsibilities across different roles is essential. - Staffing structure must reflect the requirement of the expected results, including sufficient resources for Monitoring and Evaluation of results, coupled with a robust and comprehensive M&E plan. - A project with a vision of policy and/or institutional change should have a strong knowledge management and advocacy strategy, supported by sufficient human and financial resources.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 33

- An important aspect of UNDP’s value-for-money lies in utilization of its global tools, approaches and resources. Better use of those resources could have been made.

Achieving a comprehensive approach CDMP had a very ambitious agenda for change in a wide range of sectors. Many projects have been initiated, some of which have produced excellent results, but they have not been connected logically in a theory of change. Further, there has not been a consistent approach to capacity development, and addressing institutional resistance to change that would have enhanced to sustainable outcomes. - Complex projects must identify at the outset all of the elements required for long term durable change, and the sequence in which they need to be addressed, to allow the maximum amount of implementation time to deliver results. - An adequately long inception phase to establish a robust theory of change, project planning and management arrangements, build relationships and get senior level government champions on-board facilitates genuine change. - Constantly reviewing and reprioritizing the work plan to ensure real time relevance and sustainable impact is needed. This enables projects to scale-up, scale-down or abort activities as required by changing circumstances.

Professionalizing Disaster Management To bring a great number of academic institutions with no track record of earlier cooperation together on the same platform is a challenge. Academic standards vary on newly incorporated DM courses. Significant effort to ensure consistency and quality of training is critical. Capacity development needs were not systematically assessed at the outset. When such assessments were done they tended to be ad hoc before undertaking training programmes. - It requires advocacy activities to mobilize individual members of a network to come up with collective actions like meeting together, identifying key priority areas and setting up the procedure for operating the network. - A broad-based capacity needs assessment at the beginning of the project is a precondition for any capacity development activity.

Local Level Risk Reduction It is difficult to maintain high operational DMC functionality during ‘normal time’ when no disasters occur. Rapid onset disasters with devastating impact, like cyclones, bring about a much higher preparedness level and better organized response, while DMCs are comparatively less functional in response to slow onset disasters. Almost all risk reduction interventions conceived locally are structural, not recognizing the equal importance of investment in livelihood security. Further, routine maintenance of infrastructure built with LDRRF funding was not ensured.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 34

- Keeping Union DMCs engaged in disaster risk reduction results in higher level of DMC functionality. Investment in structural risk reduction interventions through local DMCs is empowering DMCs to perform its other functions too. - Awareness-raising is required to bring about informed decisions about the suitable mix of structural and non-structural local risk reduction interventions. - Establishment of a local disaster management fund or other funding resources is a requirement for long term maintenance of the risk reduction structures, but requires more support on the ground than what a draft rule can provide.

Reducing Urban Risks Urban projects are typically complex, with a great number of departments involved and many regulations to consider. Unlike in rural settings, where local risk reduction is by default targeting poor communities, poverty targeting in urban settings is a challenge. - Partnership with urban local governments is an effective way to handle the regulatory complexities and overlapping jurisdictional responsibilities to implement urban interventions. - It is important to form and empower community committees which will be involved in project from planning stage throughout implementation and monitoring to ensure that projects respond to needs of poor urban communities.

Improving Response Capacity While investments in the government’s early warning systems have paid off, challenges remain in community based dissemination. Further, new areas with under-developed warning systems are becoming more vulnerable to intensified disasters with a changing climate. Urban disasters, such as fires and building collapses, are more complicated to deal with. - Formally engaging DMCs, NGOs, village police, youth clubs and other associations as community volunteers may be an effective and cost efficient way to disseminate warnings to local communities. - Expansion of volunteer networks, including the mobilization of women volunteers, is important to manage the risks of exposed areas. MoDMR must institutionalize its support for disaster volunteerism and consider how the GoB may support the ongoing costs of such initiatives. - Urban disasters require focused and highly disciplined response with appropriate tools and technologies, as well as an incident management system that clearly defines the roles and responsibilities of various first responders.

Mainstreaming Disaster Risk Management Partner departments have different appetites and pace in embracing DRR & CCA and in implementing pilot projects. While some show a lot of enthusiasm, others are lukewarm. - Defensive reasoning needs to be defused and underlying assumptions – “why we do what we do” – need to be sincerely agreed-on before introducing a change agenda.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 35

- Uptake of DRR-CCA agenda in various departments has to be supported by adequate resource allocation to avoid wearing out the enthusiasm of departments in expanding and operationalizing their DRR/CCA portfolio.

Adaptation to Climate Change With the present structural setting and rules of business of the host ministry, integration and convergence of CCA and DDR is a daunting task. Community-based interventions alone cannot ensure climate adaptive livelihoods. - Climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction require constant and sustained capacity development of the partners and stakeholders both at national and local levels. - Efforts must be made to mobilize various government social safety nets and development projects to support adaptive livelihoods. - Local Government Institutions need to be mobilized and capacitated to plan and implement localized climate change adaptation. - Displacement has emerged as one of the greatest single impacts of climate change, looming as a potential threat for one of every seven people in Bangladesh, and the country needs to develop a strategy for climate change induced forced migration.

Fiduciary Risk Management

Fiduciary risks have been identified as a challenge and CDMP has initiated and implemented the following activities to manage and minimize such risks: - Recruitment of an audit/financial control specialist, soon to join. - Investigation by UNDP Office of Audit and Investigations, followed by disciplinary actions; - Regular progress reviews, field visits by CDMP/LDRRF staff, with spot checks of physical against financial progress and maintenance of financial documents; - Basic orientation and refreshers to LDRRF staff on UNDP financial procedures and transparent financial management at field level; - Orientation to implementing partner NGOs on UNDP/GoB financial compliance and UNDP expectations.

Promising initiatives for further development:

CDMP has focused on areas that are considered key drivers of resilience – local level financing, vulnerability analysis, early warning, social mobilization, response capacities. Many CDMP activities hold out a potential to be taken forward. Since there is connected interplay of disaster management activities playing out in a continuum, this should not be done piecemeal, but in a joined up programme that promotes the whole disaster management cycle – risk/vulnerability reduction, preparedness and early warning, response and recovery. Below are examples of some promising CDMP initiatives and positive experiences that can be further developed.

- Building on the successful roll-out of early warning systems, strengthen community based dissemination of warnings and forecasts by linking IT and social mobilization.

CDMP Annual Progress Report - 2014 Page – 36

- Building on the promising engagement of urban volunteers, further support and develop FSCD’s ability to respond to urban disasters.

- Recognizing the crucial contributions made by volunteers as first responders, establish a volunteer institute/organization for policy formulation, advocacy, coordination of activities, support and protection, monitoring and dissemination of good practices.

- Building on CDMP experience in Community Risk Assessment and Risk Reduction Action Plans, develop the capacity of Local Government Institutions to prepare risk informed plans.

- Drawing on LDRRF experience, strengthen supportive services for local capacity development through collaboration in diverse partnerships, including accountability mechanisms and gender mainstreaming. The LDDRF experience has emphasized the need for local level change in achieving disaster resilience.

- Building on key partner ministries’ embracement of DRR/CCA guidelines and portfolios, establish and implement intra- and inter-ministry coordination led by the MoDMR.

- Drawing on longstanding UNDP partnership, support the MoDMR and DDM in implementation of the National Disaster Management Plan and Standing Orders on Disaster.

- Building on the Government’s commitment to DRR/CCA convergence, establish a national platform for disaster and climate change resilience with shared governance of GoB, civil society and private sector, support implementation of a national communication strategy on disaster resilience and a range of knowledge sharing and advocacy events.

- Drawing on Government commitment to resilient recovery and the new emerging funding opportunities, assist the mainstreaming of build back better approaches.

- Building on the partnership trust developed with MoDMR, DDM and key ministries, continue to develop Government capacity to take the lead on risk management, response and recovery. Only Government led engagement can achieve the scale needed for the country to become resilient to disasters and emerging climate change.
