Background Indus Consortium (IC) a collaborative platform of 3 humanitarian and development organizations works on climate change, water governance, tax justice, democracy and governance. Humanitarian work is the key of the area of expertise of Indus Consortium. Pakistan, currently ranking 145thof 187 countries on the Human Development Index (HDI), has a population of 177 million, 22.7% of whom live on less than $1.25 per day1.60.6% of rural households are food insecure2 and, lagging behind MDG1, the country has dropped from 52nd on the Global Hunger Index (GHI) in 2010 to 57th in 20123.In Layyah District, which has the 5th highest incidence of severe poverty amongst Punjab’s 35 districts4, 91% of the population have insufficient income to meet their basic needs5. GROW campaign is a 04 years joint collaboration of Oxfam in Pakistan and Indus Consortium and implemented in Rajanpur, Layyah, Multan, Rawalpindi and Lahore districts. Facilitation in the development of local adaptation plan of actions (LAPA) in 5 respective districts, incorporation of small growers and woman framers’ input in draft CC policy of Punjab province and budget analysis/ advocacy on CC related budget and expenditure has been done. Youth engagement has been ensured through formal MOU signing and partnership with 3 top public universities of Punjab including University of Punjab, Lahore, Bahauddin Zakriya University, Multan and Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi. Budget of provincial government of the Punjab is being analyzed three consecutive years as Climate Public Expenditure Review (CPER) / Budget Primer. Creating the drive through local level then to provincial level, a research is being planned to conduct in order to understand the budget cycle at district level. 2. Purpose National Climate Change Authority Act 20176 also emphasized to prepare the National Adaptation Plan and its constituent provincial and local adaptation plans of Actions, the would help out to design Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action Framework. Indus Consortium has taken the initiative to develop sectoral Local Adaptation Plans of Action on Agriculture in two districts of Punjab, i.e. Rajanpur and Layyah. Moreover, in order to achieve more specific results and to highlight how climate change affect crops of the Rajanpur, agriculture LAPA’s in are made crop specific. The most affected crop from Rajanpur is wheat. Local Adaptation Plans of Actions (LAPA) will support decision-makers from local-to-national level actors to: 1 Human Development Report 2011, United Nations Development Programme 2 National Nutrition Survey, 2011, Aga Khan University, Pakistan Medical Research Council and Government of Pakistan. 3 Global Hunger Index 2012, Welthungerhilfe, Concern Worldwide and International Food Policy Research. 4 Naveed and Ali (2012) Clustered Deprivation: District Profile of Poverty in Pakistan. Sustainable Development Policy Institute. 5 Siddiqui (2008) Income, Public Social Services & Capability Development: A Cross-district Analysis of Pakistan; Pakistan Institute of Development Economics. 6 National Climate Change Authority Act: http://www.na.gov.pk 3 Local Adaptation Plan of Action (LAPA)-District Rajanpur Identify the most climate vulnerable Village Development Committees (VDC’s), wards and people and their adaptation outcomes and actions. Prioritise adaptation actions in easy ways whereby local people make the prioritisation decisions. Prepare and Integrate local adaptation plans for action into local-to-national planning in accordance with the Local Self Governance Act. Identify appropriate service delivery agents and channels for funding to implement local adaptation plans for action. The LAPA Framework can thus ensure that the best sequence of adaptation actions is carried out by the most appropriate service providers in a timely and resource efficient manner. Assess the progress of LAPA to ensure effective planning and delivery. Provide cost-effective options for scaling out local-to-national adaptation planning. Provide the understanding of how gender and social exclusion exacerbates the impact on women and excluded groups and provides information that support decision makers to make gender sensitive and inclusive processes for all stages of adaptation interventions. 3.
