1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Under USAID contract number AID-EDH-I-00-08-024 Task Order AID-OAA-TO-13-00037, AECOM International Development (AECOM) implements the Partnering for Adaptation and Resilience - Agua (PARA-Agua) Project in Peru, Colombia, as well as countries in Central America and the Caribbean. The PARA-Agua Project was awarded on September 13, 2013, with a period of performance of two years with two one-year extension options ending on September 12, 2017. The AECOM team is developing innovative approaches to increase adaptation to climate change impacts through improved watershed management.

The three main project tasks for PARA-Agua are:

1. Strengthening the capacity of the research community to generate policy-oriented data on watershed management and climate change adaptation; 2. Mainstreaming and integrating climate data into decision-making related to watershed management; and 3. Strengthening planning systems that optimize water use over the whole length of watersheds in the context of climate change adaptation.

To implement Task 1, PARA-Agua combines training programs with expanded professional and counterpart linkages between national research organizations with regional and international counterparts to create new incentives for better research and the creation of policy- oriented data. To implement Task 2, PARA-Agua is developing new models for mainstreaming scientific data in policy-making and community development through a coordinated program of planning and cooperation. Through Task 3, the PARA-Agua project links science and policy to action at the watershed level through an integrated program of planning, adaptation interventions and twinning partnerships.

1.2. SUMMARY OF PROGRESS & PERFORMANCE THROUGH FY 2014 Q4

The present document focuses on major accomplishments during FY14 with emphasis on the last quarter of the year, July-September, 2014. The report provides a discussion of the interim results achieved and outlines follow-up activities to complete tasks at the watershed level in both Peru and Colombia. The PARA-Agua project has reached a point where all major tasks and activities are in progress both at the regional level in Andean South America and in two target watersheds in Peru (Chira-Piura) and in Colombia (Chinchina). A map of the geographical location of the project and the target watersheds is presented below.

Items that refer directly to accomplishments, operational matters, and challenges in FY14 Q4 are labeled as such. Progress made during the rest of FY14 is presented in Table 1to provide context for Q4 results and to offer a broader view of the PARA- Agua’s efforts to date.

Table 1: Summary of Progress Q4 and FY 2014

Major Accomplishments

• Two regional training workshops were completed during Q4 in Peru and Colombia based on the first of four prioritized training topics identified through the gap analysis completed in Q3. The workshops and gap analysis are activities under Task 1: strengthening the capacity of the research

6 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 community to generate policy-oriented data on watershed management and climate change adaptation. The workshops were successful in helping researchers to better communicate with the policy makers and understand their information needs, planning horizons, and different data requirements. • In conjunction with the regional training workshops, PARA-Agua developed the first toolkit in Q4 for use with the events and the forthcoming Community of Practice (CoP). The first toolkit provides a methodology that can be used by both scientists and researchers to identify the scale, uncertainties, form, and source of climate related information needed for different actors involved in policy and watershed management. The CoP will serve as a platform for the collaboration between the research and policy communities; the dissemination of toolkits and best practices; and the sustainability of PARA-Agua’s broader efforts. • During Q4, PARA-Agua completed the framework for the design and implementation of CoP. The development of the framework was informed by extensive consultation with stakeholders and research on existing CoPs within the region that are similar in scope. • To support the long-term sustainability of the CoP and the broader efforts of PARA-Agua, a consortium has been selected as the legacy institution for the CoP during Q4. • New watersheds in Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador were identified in Q4 through consultation with USAID in Q4, various stakeholder institutions, and the use of the project’s watershed selection criteria. Work will formally begin in the Quilca-Chili Peru in Q1 FY15. • PARA-Agua has started an exchange of information, lessons learned, experiences and documents with USAID/Guatemala in Central America. Additionally, project teamed up with the CNCG project in Guatemala and invited the climate change lead to participate in the XLRM workshop in Manizales, Colombia in April 2014. • Climate change scenario workshops were held in Q4 for Chinchina and Chira-Piura as part of the implementation of the WEAP-based RDS process. The events were successful in building the capacity of key watershed stakeholders to understand and process global climate data for use in watershed-level analyses. • During D4, a draft WEAP model was completed for Chinchina and associated training was held for end-users within the watershed. Participants learned how to refine supply and demand specifications, model hypothetical future scenarios, analyze impacts to hydro-power, and consider hydrology and catchment characteristics. • A workshop for climate scenarios prioritization was completed for Chira-Piura in Q4. The event led to a concrete set of scenarios that were used with WEAP. The WEAP model results were then used in a vulnerability workshop that was also completed in Q4 in Chira-Piura. Future performance of the current water management systems under climate change and other uncertainties were explored during the workshop. • To model potential climate change impacts and evaluate possible robust adaptation options, the proejct assembled information in Q4 on regional climate data and made projections from Global Climate Model results archived through the Inter-Government Panel on Climate Change Assessment Report-5 (IPCC). They have also compared these results with historical climate observations. Using Bias Correction and Spatial Disaggregation (BCSD) methods, the project has developed a WEAP compatible forcing dataset from this archive. • The PARA-Agua project has made significant progress in establishing a twinning partnership between the Chira-Piura and Chinchina Watersheds in Peru and Colombia, respectively. The purpose of this twinning arrangement is to share experiences between watershed councils, to examine the institutional set up of each council, and to explore possibilities for improving collaboration. From the institutional perspective, Chira-Piura is being considered as a “resource” institution

7 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 whereas Chinchina is the “recipient” organization. An MOU between the groups is close to being executed. • PARA-Agua has assisted the Chira-Piura watershed council in prioritizing the nearly hundred adaptation measures identified in their water resources management plan. A short-list of 17 priority projects was presented for consideration for further financing. This list was completed through the application of criteria and an evaluation methodology developed by PARA-Agua. All short-listed projects have proper documentation and have an associated SNIP processing code.

Operational Matters • PARA-Agua’s M&E Specialist and Gender Specialist were hired during the last quarter of FY14. • The project was included under the umbrella of the Mission's Bilateral Agreement during the last week of Q4. The accreditation of the COP before the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be initiated during Q1 FY15. • AECOM’s registration by Public Institutions (Public Registry, SUNAT, and Ministry of Labor) was completed during the first quarter. In coordination with a local law firm, Power of Attorneys and AECOM’s Certificate of Good Standing were submitted and approved by the Public Registry, and a Tax ID was issued in order to be able to operate in country.

Implementation Challenges • PARA-Agua was able to overcome significant operational and technical challenges during its first year. On the operational side, a lack of available office space was overcome through an exhaustive search. A suitable and affortable office was secured during Q3. • In Colombia, PARA-Agua received authorization to proceed in the Chinchina Watershed much later than in Peru. Despite the uncertainty and time constraints associated with the late approval, the project positioned itself to implement activates in this second target watershed on an expedited schedule. As a result, activities in Chinchina are nearly on pace with those in Chiura-Piura. There is again the need for rapid implementation of activities for a second watershed in Colombia in FY15. As of the completion of this report, approval on FY15 new activities from USAID Colombia is still pending. PARA-Agua is positioning itself to meet its year two goals on time with the near-term authorization from the mission. • Also in Colombia, initially there was not as much interest in PARA-Agua activites from national hydrometeorologic institutions. PARA-Agua was able to overcome this challenge with direct engagement and a series of presentations of the project objectives in both Manizales and Bogota. • Work in Ecuador presents another significant challenge, as there is no longer a USAID Mission in country, nor a USAID point of contact. Moreover, the COP has been instructed that no USG funds would be available to invite GOE participants to any of our workshops in the trans border watershed of Catamayo in Southern Ecuador. While project activities have not begun in earnest in Ecuador, PARA-Agua has taken steps to find implementation strategy in the country that address these serious constraints while still delivering results. The PARA-Agua team is prepared to face the challenges in Ecuador in close coordination with USAID. • Sustainability of the impact of finite project interventions is a challenge that PARA-Agua considers constantly. The CoP currently being designed under Task 1 is a key element in ensuring sustained impact of USAID investments through PARA-Agua. The project was able to develop a consortium as a legacy institution for the CoP. The partnership that will be formalized in FY15 Q1 is one that can foster and sustain the collaboration and capacity building initiated by PARA-Agua well into the future.

8 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 Planned Activities for Next Quarter • PARA-Agua will identify key research agencies and organizations for two new target watersheds in Peru and Colombia. Subsequently, stakeholder consultation workshops and meetings will be held for both watersheds. • In consultation with the PARA-Agua COR and bilateral missions, the program will expand to new countries within the LAC region. A new RDS program could be developed within the Rio Catamayo System in Ecuador, which forms the headwaters of the Rio Chira System in Peru. PARA-Agua will initiate consultations for identification of new activities in Caribbean countries such as the Dominican Republic and Jamaica. Additionally, PARA-Agua will continue forging ties with USAID/Guatemala and will increase exchanges with the Climate, Nature and Communities in Guatemala (CNCG) project implemented by Rainforest Alliance. • PARA-Agua will produce a final version of the first toolkit for use with the CoP and workshops in new target watersheds. As mentioned above, the first toolkit facilitates the coordination between scientific and policy actors on the information needed for specific policy decisions related to climate change. • PARA-Agua will design a second set of regional capacity building workshops in Peru and Colombia in Q1. The subject matter and toolkit developed for these events will focus on the development of protocols to integrate public and private organizations in national information systems for climate change adaptation in watersheds. • During FY15, PARA-Agua will develop a virtual platform to support the CoP and design specific discussion modules within the CoP. • PARA-Agua will develop a joint plan for networking and funding strategies for the sustainability of capacity building and networking efforts with counterparts. • The project will arrange working group meetings to strengthen collaboration with relevant projects funded by USAID, including the U.S. State Department- supported Andean Climate Change Inter- American Observatory Network (ACCION) and other development partners. • During FY2015, PARA-Agua plans to implement a number of twining activities, including but not limited to: a twinning partnership at the watershed scale between Chira-Piura in Peru and Chinchina in Colombia; a scientific twinning involving the hydrologic and meteorological organizations in Peru and Colombia; a water funds twinning partnership between Peru and Ecuador. • RDS interventions will conclude in the Chinchina Basin in Colombia with the organization of a vulnerability workshop in Q1. • PARA-Agua will begin efforts in both FY14 target watersheds to utilize WEAP models developed during Year 1. Application will focus on the key water management adaptive responses identified by basin actors and decision-makers. A set of runs that can be used to evaluate the performance of the selected projects should be completed by the end of December 2014. • The project will continue to refine and advance their climate scenario tools developed for the Year 1 study basins (Chira-Piura in Peru and Chinchina in Colombia). The same process will be applied and climate scenario tools developed for the new target watersheds. • PARA-Agua will assist target watershed stakeholders in the identification and prioritization of adaptation projects for funding and implementation. • The project will help identify ways to support female leaders, based on data and analysis that was collected during Year 1 from the actor mapping exercises and consultative workshops, • In Q1 FY15 PARA-Agua will begin work on a gender analysis for the project. The gender analysis will assess the different roles that men and women play in decision-making within each of the watersheds, explore the gender dynamics of relationships between men and women within key

9 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 partner institutions, and explore the differences in access to and control of resources and information with respect to water resources management. • Results of the gender analysis will provide the basis for the formulation of the GAP: the programmatic and organizational road map for integrating gender into planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of project activities.

10 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 2. IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS

2.1. MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS

During the first year of activities, PARA-Agua established a robust regional network of scientists, watershed technical professionals and decision-makers through a series of important meetings and workshops with project partners, regional stakeholders, and USAID missions as part of implementation of the approved Year One Work Plan. These efforts set the stage for targeted capacity building, development of the CoP, implementation of the WEAP-based RDS process at the watershed level, the strengthening of institutional relationships, and expansion into new watersheds and countries during the last quarter of the first year. The following are descriptions of the main accomplishments of the project over the course of FY14. Progress made in Q4 is highlighted along with the project’s progress over the entire year.

2.1.1. MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR FY 2014

TASK 1: STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY TO GENERATE POLICY-ORIENTED DATA ON WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION AND PLANNING LEADING TO A REGIONAL GAP ANALYSIS

During FY14, PARA-Agua completed a strategic and iterative process designed to ensure that training offered through the project is aligned with the priorities and needs of the watershed councils of Chinchina, Chira-Piura, and other target watersheds. Early efforts included the identification of key research agencies and organizations, surveys, targeted interviews, and a regional consultation workshop held during Q3. This led to additional work during Q3 with key members of the climate science community and those involved with the development and implementation of adaptation policy, to identify the most urgent gaps in knowledge and capacity within the two groups. A gap analysis report competed in early in Q4 presented these findings along with an analysis of institutional relationships. The report identified a list of priority topics, intended for use in a series of regional capacity building workshops and in the development of a set of practical toolkits for use by practitioners with the CoP. The topics identified were,

1. Climate-science interpretation for watershed management; 2. Development of protocols to integrate public and private organizations in national information systems for climate change adaptation in watersheds; 3. Application of climate and watershed models to the formulation of public investment projects for climate change adaptation; 4. Watershed-level climate change monitoring systems.

REGIONAL CAPACITY BUILDING WORKSHOPS IN PERU AND COLOMBIA

Based on the first priority training topic identified in the gap analysis report, a regional capacity building workshop was held on September 1-2, 2014 in Bogota, Colombia. The workshop’s primary objective was to improve relevant scientific and research actors understanding how their work can be better

11 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 communicated to assist in the development of informed policy decisions. The workshop was also designed to help bridge the gap between climate science and adaptation policy by initiating and facilitating an ongoing dialog and information exchange. Forty-one participants attended the Bogota workshop. In attendance were representatives from various local ministries and the Chinchina watershed council members (Pactos poor la Cuenca).

A second workshop, identical in scope, was held in Lima, Peru on September3-4, 2014. Forty-two participants attended the workshop in Lima. A similar mix of stakeholder organizations were represented, including various local ministries and five other Peruvian watershed management councils. Both workshops were well represented by women from the aforementioned organizations, in alignment with PARA-Agua’s strategic objectives related to gender.

Figure 2: Workshop in Bogotá, Colombia

At the heart of both training workshops was a toolkit developed by the project. The toolkit offers a methodology that assists scientists and researchers in identifying the key aspects of data and other information needed for specific policy and watershed management decisions related to climate change. More specifically the toolkit assists in: • Determining if climate related data or information is intended for application in operational or strategic context, and what kind of information is need for each; • Identifying relevant uncertainties associated with climate related data or information; and • Selecting the appropriate scope, scale, type of climate related data or information for application in various management or policy contexts.

12 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 Following the presentation of the toolkit, groups of participants were tasked to apply it on real-life cases that mirror some of the challenges related to climate change adaptation in the region. PARA-Agua is collecting feedback on the ongoing application of the toolkit in order to refine it based on real-life user experience. This grounding in practice will lead to broader adoption and better results in linking usable climate information to those working in watershed management. The toolkit, including guidance on its use, will also be disseminated and discussed within the CoP upon its launch in FY15. The CoP provides a platform for its sustained utilization and impact.

FINALIZATION OF THE COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE FRAMEWORK

The regional consultation workshop completed in Q3 included discussions on the conceptualization of a CoP, designed to facilitate and replicate best practices related to watershed management and climate change adaptation through cooperation and counterpart exchange. Building off of these early efforts, the project conducted structured interviews to further assess stakeholder expectations and capture suggestions regarding the operation of a CoP. A total of 21 targeted interviews with representatives from research and policy institutions from Colombia, Peru, and Chile provided valuable information on the design and implementation of the CoP. The major findings from the interviews were that (I) participants are unaware of the services associated with and the benefits of participating in a CoP; (ii) the CoP should be a mechanism to support, strengthen and complement face-to-face meetings; (iii) CoP should identify and yield tangible technical results. Based on these findings, the project has developed a proposed CoP framework that includes the elements and functional aspects of a virtual platform. The framework includes sections to discuss toolkits developed by the project; a chat room for information exchange and peer-to-peer technical learning; and a library of PARA-Agua and other documents to support science/policy exchange in LAC. The framework has been developed with the flexibility to grow and adapt in response to actual user needs. CoP implementation and operation will begin in Q1 FY15.

IDENTIFICATION OF COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE LEGACY INSTITUTION

Work began in Q3 to identify potential legacy institutions to support the sustainability of the CoP and the broader efforts of PARA-Agua. The results of these efforts were documented in a report completed during the same quarter. A short-list of potential legacy institutions was developed, and after additional deliberation, a consortium was selected as the legacy institution to undertake continuity and sustainability efforts. The partnership is complementary, providing strong technical capacities to network with governmental hydrology and climate agencies, facilitation skills and relationships with those directly involved with policy development at national and watershed levels. The project will develop a joint plan for networking and funding strategies for the sustainability of capacity building and networking efforts by the end of Q1 FY15.

TASK 2: MAINSTREAMING AND INTEGRATING CLIMATE DATA INTO DECISION-MAKING RELATED TO WATERSHED MANAGEMENT

NEW WATERSHED IDENTIFICATION AND PRELIMINARY ASSESMENT IN PERU, COLOMBIA, AND ECUADOR

13 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 PARA-Agua is expected to complete basin-level RDS activities in three to five river basins over the life of the project, including option years. As such, potential new basins were evaluated in Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador in FY14. Potential basins in all three countries were considered in coordination with USAID bilateral missions and using the PARA-Agua watershed selection criteria (see criteria details below). In Peru, the Quilca-Chili Basin located in the Arequipa Department in the south of the country was identified as a preferred candidate, and USAID has authorized project implementation beginning in Q1 FY15. This basin was prioritized under the Modernization Project implemented by the ANA. Exploratory work completed in Q4 FY14 revealed that there is a consensus among local and national government authorities in Peru and USAID/Peru that this is the logical priority basin for PARA-Agua interventions. In Colombia, a number of candidate watersheds were identified through the application of the selection criteria. In close coordination with USAID/Colombia mission, the Rio Pasto Watershed was selected as a potential target watershed. Activities in the Rio Pasto Watershed would complement the work of another USAID project focused on mitigation activities. PARA-Agua has also been authorized to begin work in Ecuador. During Q4, PARA-Agua met with academic institutions. PARA-Agua has also identified the transborder Catamayo River System located in the south of the country, as potential area for the development of an RDS program. This river belongs to the same basin as the Chira-Piura watershed in Peru, thereby providing potential linkages and other benefits in coordination with PARA-Agua work on the other side of the border. However given the difficult political situation in Ecuador, PARA-Agua has identified constraints that would prevent full implementation of RDS activities in the country. Still, further consultations and evaluation needs to take place before a decision is made on the level of engagement. In the meantime, the project will continue to evaluate alternative areas for work in Ecuador during FY15. The Figure below presents a summary of the watershed selection criteria developed in close coordination and consultation with PARA-Agua regional counterparts and basin stakeholders during the initial stages of the project. A proposed criterion was vetted with counterparts during the first Inception Workshop in mid-November of 2013 and further complemented by the priorities and opinions expressed during the consultation meeting in Lima, Peru.

14 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 WATERSHED SELECTION CRITERIA

The PARA-Agua project will work with stakeholders from target watersheds to build capacity in watershed management and strengthen resilience in the face of climate change impacts. In consultation with project partners and USAID operating units, the project will select target watershed based on the following criteria:

• Exposure to Climate Change Impacts – watersheds that are ecosystem regulators with flows vulnerable to climate change, such as glacier-fed basins or páramos typically found on the Western slopes draining to the Pacific coast, or those exposed to extreme weather events, such as those in the Eastern slopes draining to the Amazon basin, and vulnerable to drought. To enable effective replication of outcomes or experience, PARA-Agua will select watersheds that are also representative of common regional challenges or contexts. • Stakeholder Commitment – established organizations that demonstrate commitment to cooperation with the project. PARA-Agua will evaluate commitment based on such factors as: (1) past work by key stakeholders in watershed management and climate change adaptation; (2) interest from a range of governmental, community and private sector stakeholders; (3) willingness to enter into MOUs or demonstrate commitment through cost share or willingness to create project “legacy” institutions. Partners will also include private sector entities, e.g. sugar and coffee industries. • Linkage or Ongoing or Planned USAID, Host Country or Other Donor Sub-tasks – a connection to USAID regional and bilateral, or other host country or donor, program Sub-tasks. PARA-Agua aims to strengthen USAID global, regional and bilateral programming priorities, and build synergies with planned or new USAID or other donor project Sub-tasks, as well as complement other parallel initiatives. • Well-Functioning Watershed Governance Systems – functional governance structures that support effective planning and decision-making at the watershed-level. PARA-Agua will evaluate governance arrangements based on such factors as: (1) transparent, participatory and inclusive decision-making processes; (2) broad stakeholder participation; (3) authority and access to resources to support governance process and implementation of decisions and plans; (4) track record of achievement; and (5) potential to develop multi-sectorial strategic alliances. • Existence of Sound and Robust Climatic Data – watersheds that have substantial historical climatologic and stream flow data collected will provide the means to use WEAP modeling effectively and reliably. Work in these watersheds should strengthen linkages with institutions that regularly collect and analyze hydrologic and meteorological data. Target watersheds should benefit by having the project strengthen their systems for data collection and analysis. • Population and Biodiversity – substantial population within the target watershed who can benefit from and contribute to project interventions, as well as the presence of high levels of biodiversity and endemism that are under threat within some segment of the watershed. The existence or proximity to natural protected areas is evidence of high biodiversity. Relevance of the watershed to the economy of the region and of the country, such as impact to strategic economic sectors – i.e., agricultural areas dedicated to the production of cash crops for export or mining Sub-tasks – will also be important considerations.

FACILITATED DIALOGUE BETWEEN RESEARCH COMMUNITY AND WATERSHED POLICY/DECISION-MAKERS

The project held a regional consultation workshop in Q3 as a first step in PARA-Agua’s efforts to strengthen the links between the region’s scientific community and policy makers. The workshop was held in Lima and was attended by a total of 34 representatives (12 women, 22 men) from a range of organizations involved in research and watershed management, including IDEAM, SENAMHI, CONDESAN, Ministries of Environment of Peru and Colombia, National Water Authority, and CIIFEN. The workshop was also attended by one specialist from the risk management and agricultural emergency office of the Agricultural Ministry of Chile, which established an Observatory of Extreme Drought

15 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 (Observatorio de Sequías), experience that is currently being replicated in Peru by SENAMHI, ANA and other research groups that participated in the meeting. Participants shared information describing their institutional perspectives about the gaps and needs relating to improved science-policy cooperation that promotes climate change adaptation in watersheds. The workshop revealed that there are four areas of training/capacity building needed by the participants, which is described in Section 2.1.1 p.10 above.

PARA-Agua convened a two-day workshop in Bogota on September 1-2, 2014 and another two day workshop in Lima on September 4-5, 2014, to discuss the first topic identified for training/building capacity: “Climate science interpretation for watershed management”. PARA-Agua helped facilitate the dialog between researchers from SENAMHI in Peru, IDEAM in Colombia with decision-makers in the Chira-Piura and Chinchina watersheds, Ministry of Environment officials and National Water Authority representatives. As part of the workshops, scientific and policy counterparts in attendance began developing an action plan between practitioners and institutions. The plan will be designed with the objective of improved communication and collaboration between the science and watershed policy/management communities. These first steps included the identification of the following issues shared by all participants:

• The importance of recognizing institutional strengths and weaknesses; • Institutional strengthening at national and watershed level is needed; • Climate science and policy require different communication strategies; • It is necessary to consolidate hydrodrological and climatic information systems; • There is an urgent need operationalize available tools in water resources management; and • High-level buy-in within institutions, government, and other key stakeholders is necessary.

OTHER WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE ADAPTATION INTERVENTIONS IN NON- ANDEAN COUNTRIES

In FY14 PARA-Agua took the first steps to expand activities to LAC countries outside of the Andes. In Guatemala, exchanges of information, lessons learned, experiences, and documents have begun. PARA- Agua has teamed up with the CNCG project in Guatemala to participate in XLRM worship held in Manizales. Supported by efforts under Task 1, further consultation will take place in the Caribbean in early FY15. Activities in non-Andean countries will be implemented in collaboration with bilateral mission programs and will be designed to facilitate linkages between sub-regions that enable dissemination and replication of experience and best practices.

TASK 3: STRENGTHENING PLANNING SYSTEMS THAT OPTIMIZE WATER USE OVER THE WHOLE LENGTH OF WATERSHEDS IN THE CONTEXT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

IMPLEMENTATION OF A WEAP-BASED ROBUST DECION SUPPORT FRAMEWORK IN THE CHIRA-PIURA AND CHINCHINA WATERSHEDS PARA-Agua’s starting point for RDS activity in Chira-Piura and Chinchina Watersheds were stakeholder mapping exercises and the examination of existing water resources planning documents and instruments. These efforts led to the identification of key actors that are in a position to provide data in support of the RDS process and to benefit from the information generated. Many of these same actors also participated in the FY14 capacity building activities. The consequence of this intentional grounding of the work and early engagement with key institutions has been their consistent participation in the RDS process over the course of the year.

16 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 The next step in the RDS process was the completion of the XLRM workshops. In both the Chira-Piura and Chinchina, existing planning instruments listed a wide range of actions for water resource and watershed management. However, many of them were not directly related to climate change adaptation. In fact, it seemed that even though climate change was an important issue to the framers of these documents, they did not have a clear sense of how to integrate climate change considerations in the evaluation of management alternatives. During the XLRM workshops, PARA-Agua and stakeholders in attendance were able to narrow down identified projects to those that are directly related to climate change impacts and adaptation, by contextualizing climate implications for the planning process. These include watershed conservation measures, new infrastructure (both water supply and flood protection), water use efficiency improvements and land use and crop changes. In addition to these specific projects, basin actors also identified components of the planning processes, such as institutional coordination and improvements in water culture that can be supported by the RDS process promoted by PARA-Agua.

The development of the Chira-Piura and Chinchina WEAP models at the heart of the RDS process began with their conceptualization in early in FY14. Work progressed to produce concrete modeling tools by the end of Q4 FY14 that incorporate key features of each watershed. In the case of Chira-Piura, a previous WEAP model had already been developed by a consulting firm. However, the consulting firm simply requested the data required to build the WEAP application and took no steps to transfer capacity to the modeling group within the basin council. PARA-Agua efforts have addressed these resulting capacity gaps of the modeling group for the Chira-Piura Watershed. The Chira-Piura modeling group is now embedded in the model building process and they are convinced that the model that they are developing in partnership with PARA-Agua is a substantial improvement over the tools previously at their disposal. The Chira-Piura WEAP model currently includes details of rainfall runoff processes, infrastructure capacities, and operations. These new aspects constitute an improved representation of the system that is critical to climate vulnerability analysis and the evaluation of potential adaptation projects.

At the onset of work in Chinchina there was somewhat less institutional commitment to WEAP than in Chira-Piura. Still, there was a sense that WEAP could be useful for their planning processes as well. After consultations with CORPOCALDAS early in FY14 identified staff leading the PORH and POMCA processes and the potential utility of WEAP within their planning processes in the context of climate change. As a result of their input, the draft WEAP model completed in Q4 2014 includes parameters and algorithms that represent these features and the dynamics of their response to climate projections. Particular attention was paid to the modeling climate sensitive features of this watershed, specifically glaciers and páramos (these were important in the Chira-Piura model as well). These aspects will be vital in projecting how climate change will affect the hydrologic responses of key features of the landscape.

The completion of the WEAP model for Chinchina in Q4 was done in conjunction with a training workshop on the WEAP computer software from September 16th-17th, 2014 in Manizales, Colombia. The training introduced WEAP and its application to 21 participants from Chinchina stakeholder institutions. As part of the workshop, participants learned how to refine supply and demand specifications, model hypothetical future scenarios, analyze impacts to hydropower, and consider hydrology and catchment characteristics.

17 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 Figure 3: Draft WEAP model interface showing the Chinchiná Watershed and its rivers and streams

As a next step in the project implementation, PARA-Agua hosted climate change scenario workshops for both the Chira-Piura and Chinchina watersheds during Q4 FY14. The event in Chinchina was held July 15th-16th and was attended by 46 registrants, including the four workshop trainers. In Chira-Piura, the workshop took place from July 17th-18th and had 39 registrants, including the five workshop trainers. The objective of the events was to improve the ability participants to understand and process global climate data to levels appropriate for watershed decision-making. To achieve this end, the workshop presented data generated by the project and introduced a watershed-scale climate database to be used in WEAP. It also introduced climate change scenarios and demonstrated water balance modeling in WEAP. Perhaps the most important component of the workshop was the introduction of a method used to extract relevant information from the IPCC AR5 GCM model output database and use it to produce appropriately downscaled climate projections for the Chira-Piura and Chinchina systems.

PARA-Agua, in collaboration with the active participation of the meteorological institutions IDEAM in Colombia and SENAMHI in Peru in the climate change scenario workshops, provided strong evidence that the downscaling methodology introduced during the events would be integrated within national climate information development processes in both countries. In addition, a number of local actors in each basin mastered the methodology to the point that they are using it to generate future precipitation and temperature time series that will be used as input in the WEAP models. The project also has the opportunity to sustain capacity building activities on watershed scale climate change scenarios development across the region.

A scenarios prioritization workshop was held at the end of Q4 for the Chira-Piura Watershed (Chinchina is slated for early Q1 FY15). The event led to a concrete set of scenarios to be implemented 18 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 in WEAP for the vulnerability workshop during which the future performance of the current water management systems under climate change and other uncertainties would be explored. This workshop prepared the ground for the modeling group within the Chira-Piura Technical Secretariat to understand the structure of the vulnerability assessment that would be developed as part of the WEAP-based RDS process and allowed for final definition of the ensemble of scenarios runs.

The results of this ensemble analysis were presented during the Vulnerability Workshop in Piura at the end of September 2014. During the workshop, a vulnerability map was introduced that highlights the performance of the system with respect to key performance metrics. Specific places in the basin were assessed in order to evaluate how vulnerable the current system is to key uncertainties such as climate change, population growth, land use change, and the continued loss of paramour ecosystems. This map, which was understood and appreciated by all of the participants, provides the baseline against which the ability of potential climate adaptation projects to reduce system vulnerabilities can be measured.

CLIMATE CHANGE SCENARIOS FOR PARA-AGUA TRAGET WATERSHEDS

In FY14, the US National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) developed hydro- meteorological downscaling tools for use with the WEAP models in Chira-Piura and Chinchina. These tools included a user interface for translating climate projections into WEAP compatible formats. The tools also utilized regional climate projections developed by NCAR specifically for use in the FY14 target watersheds. The tools and new datasets were used in the climate scenario workshops referenced above. The same process will be applied and tools developed for the new target watersheds in FY 15.

STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS AND TWINNING ACTIVITIES PARA-Agua has made significant progress in the development of strategic partnerships and twinning relationships. Strategic partnerships have been initiated with organizations in Peru, Colombia, and the region that will help PARA-Agua leverage funding, link new technical expertise, and ensure the sustainability of program activities. As part of twinning development process, PARA-Agua has and will continue to build upon well-developed relationships with partners in the United States and Latin America who have, and continue to, successfully implement the RDS approach to support climate informed water management planning and decision-making. These organizations will perform the role of resource partners. Local project partners would be the beneficiaries of potential strategic alliances. The project’s progress through FY14 includes the following. • PARA-Agua signed an MOU with CORPOCALDAS. This is a very important cooperation agreement given that CORPOCALDAS is the official government agency at the department level in charge of environmental monitoring and climate change adaptation planning for the Chinchina Watershed. • PARA-Agua signed an MOU with the National Water Authority (ANA) under the leadership of the Director of the Project for the Modernization of Water Resources Management. • FESCO foundation offered interest in assisting PARA-Agua with its communication strategy in Colombia. FESCO is an NGO and leading member of “Pactos de la Cuenca” whose members sit in the watershed council of Chinchina and influence in decision-making and in the preparation of the long-term watershed management plans. Potential partnership with FESCO will be evaluated during the next reporting period. • PARA-Agua reached an agreement with the Universidad Técnica de Pereira (UTP) in Colombia. UTP is a leading technical and research institution in the Risaralda department with direct experience in climate activities in watersheds draining from the Nevado del Ruiz, such as Chinchina.

19 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 • PARA-Agua met with the Director of the World Bank Modernization Project in Peru to discuss collaboration with PARA-Agua in more than one watershed. The Modernization Project will facilitate PARA-Agua entry and cooperation with the watershed councils of at least six priority watersheds in Peru. PARA-Agua will in turn help to strengthen the operation of the above mentioned councils by sharing best practices and will explore the possibility of twinning partnerships and identify potential public-private sources of financing for the implementation climate adaptation measures. • PARA-Agua started discussions with the International Center for the El Nino Phenomenon (CIIFEN), based in Guayaquil, Ecuador for identifying potential areas of cooperation with PARA- Agua. The director of the program met with PARA-Agua in Lima, Peru in June to define next steps to find specific areas of work in PARA-Agua’s target watersheds. • Twinning partnerships were initiated at the watershed level between the Chira- Piura Basin in Northern Peru, with the Chinchina Basin in the coffee growing region of Figure 2: Twinning meeting between Chira-Piura and Chinchina Colombia. The Consejo de Cuenca will support important activities and will be the principal decision-maker in the twining process. From the institutional perspective, Chira-Piura is being considered as a “resource” institution whereas Chinchina is the “recipient” organization. An MOU between the groups is close to being executed. • A scientific twinning partnership has also been identified involving the premier hydrological and meteorological organizations in both countries.

CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION MEASURES AND SOURCES OF FINANCING IDENTIFIED In March of 2014, PARA-Agua led a workshop in Piura aimed at identifying climate change adaptation initiatives in the Chira-Piura Basin for future funding. Through the use of a methodology developed by PARA-Agua, stakeholders developed watershed-specific criteria used to prioritize a pre-existing list of adaptation interventions. A point system corresponding to specific criteria related to efficiency, impacts on poverty, location, environmental dimensions, and financial considerations was established for Chira-Piura. As a result, 17 projects were systematically identified in the Chira-Piura Basin. In Colombia, PARA-Agua is supporting CORPOCALDAS through a similar prioritization process in the Chinchina Watershed.

1 These projects have been included in an “Acta de Compromiso” (commitment letter) signed by Peru’s Water Authority (ANA)

20 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 The result of these efforts in Colombia will result in the Watershed Management and Land Use Plan of the Chinchina River (POMCA). PARA-Agua will initiate coordination with counterparts and watershed decision makers to help them secure financing for development of plans that include specific adaptation measures to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience to climate change in target watersheds.

PARA-Agua will assist counterparts and watershed decision-makers in securing financing for priority adaptation measures with the help of the rigorous development of a baseline as key step in the demonstration of “additionally” (the term used by the UNFCCC to denote the extra increment of management action required to respond to climate change above and beyond actions associated with tradition management or the “business as usual” scenario) required to justify an application for funds. As these funds are intended to provide financial support for climate change adaptation and not standard development projects, a clear case will be made as to how these actions can potentially improve outcomes, reduce vulnerabilities and increase resilience under uncertain future climatic conditions. To support implementation of adaptation interventions based on the RDS process and the Water Evaluation and Planning (WEAP) system (see Activity 3.3.2), PARA-Agua will facilitate linkages between watershed stakeholders and public and private sector financial institutions. PARA-Agua is hiring a part- time project finance specialist who will work to identify potential sources of adaptation financing in the countries from private and public sources. The objective of this activity is help secure sources of climate adaptation finance. Throughout this task, the team will provide technical expertise and guidance in shaping implementation of technical solutions related to new actions or investments. Project support and interventions could include the provision of information, training, or technical services, depending on the stakeholder and the requirements of the intervention. In working to structure projects, PARA- Agua will also identify opportunities to link with national or regional project priorities or climate vulnerability screening systems, such as the National System for Public Investment (SNIP) in Peru (see text box). In Peru, the development of adaptation projects will be made following the findings of the water resources management plans developed and directed by the World Bank funded Modernization project. These plans have identified by name, a number of adaptation projects that are registered under the National System of Public Investment (SNIP) and have met country-specific eligibility requirements such as socio-economic and environmental sustainability, risk analysis and reasonableness of public investment. During Year 2, PARA-Agua will guide stakeholders in the Quilca-Chili Basin through the prioritization of measures for adaptation to climate change in already identified through their watershed management plan. This process will apply the same methodology used with watershed stakeholders in Chira-Piura. The project will continue identifying sources of funding for priority climate adaptation measures not only in Chira-Piura but in Chinchina as well. In response to a local demand, PARA-Agua will consider supporting the creation of a water fund in the Chira-Piura Basin: the Regional Water and Sanitation Fund –FORASAN.

2.2. PROGRESS RELATED TO PARA-AGUA’S GENDER-FOCUSED APPROACH

PARA-Agua understands that an appropriate recognition of gender perspectives is essential in efforts to strengthen institutions dealing with monitoring, research, and decision-making. Furthermore, in looking at ways to optimize current conditions and minimizing the vulnerability of women and men to future climate changes, trade-offs (which may be gender-specific) might need to be made. The PARA-Agua project is extremely committed to identifying opportunities to engage more women in project activities

21 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 and to promote broad-based consultation to help generate policy-oriented data that responds to men and women’s unique challenges. Over the course of Year 1, project staff have spent time working in conjunction with partner institutions to solicit wider opinions on how to engage female thought leaders in the science and policy-making community, and how decision-makers within the watershed councils, both men and women, can work to better address some of the unique challenges posed by women in the watersheds. Over the course of Year 1 implementation, the project has identified different opportunities to integrate gender considerations into key activities. For example, when PARA-Agua held the XRLM problem formulation workshop in both watersheds in Peru and Colombia, an actor mapping survey was administered to identify key producers and users of water management information. Part of the process in identifying key stakeholders was to define the important power structures within decision-making processes in the basin. Project staff took measures to specifically consider the role that gender plays within the organizations that produce and use information and participate in decision-making. This analysis provided useful insight into the gender dynamics at play within key stakeholders. The PARA-Agua project has had success in identifying female thought leaders to participate in workshops and trainings, particularly from partner institutions. These institutions include watershed councils, research centers and institutions, and government institutions such as ANA. PARA-Agua has maintained consistent follow-up with these female leaders to ensure that they are invited to all training workshops and that trainings are conducted with gender-sensitive facilitation techniques that promote equitable participation in the sessions. Female participation in these key PARA-Agua activities has not only led to more balanced participation in the trainings, but has also directly contributed to an improvement in their capacity in knowledge and skills that are essential for them to contribute to and influence decision-making. Furthermore, it has provided excellent opportunities for their professional development. The project has also sought to engage woman in leading positions from within the PARA-Agua project itself. The PARA-Agua team is formed by a majority of women. All task leads and country coordinators are women. Additionally the project’s administrative assistant, finance manager, home office manager, and project coordinator are all women. PARA-Agua recognizes that it is positioned to promote women leaders in climate change and water resources management. It will continue to look for opportunities to do so in the future.

2.3. OPERATIONAL MATTERS

During the first and second quarters, the PARA-Agua project focused on start-up activities, which included hiring staff, establishing AECOM procedures, procurement, office space, and other administrative and project management tasks. In the third and fourth quarters the project focused on hiring STTA consultants. Below is some of the noteworthy progress made in operational matters in Q4.

• PARA-Agua’s M&E Specialist and Gender Specialist were identified and approved by USAID in Q4. • AECOM’s registration by Public Institutions (Public Registry, SUNAT, and Ministry of Labor) was completed the first quarter. In coordination with a local law firm, Power of Attorneys and AECOM’s Certificate of Good Standing were submitted and approved by the Public Registry and a tax ID was issued in order to be able to operate in country.

22 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 • The project was included under the umbrella of the Mission's Bilateral Agreement during the last week of the fourth quarter. The accreditation of the COP before the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be initiated during the fifth quarter.

2.4. IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES

PARA-Agua was able to overcome significant operational and technical challenges during its first year. On the operational side, a lack of available office space was overcome through an exhaustive search. A suitable and affortable office was secured during Q3.

In Colombia, PARA-Agua received authorization to proceed in the Chinchina Watershed much later than in Peru. Despite the uncertainty and time constraints associated with the late approval, the project positioned itself to implement activates in this second target watershed on an expedited schedule. As a result, activities in Chinchina are nearly on pace with those in Chiura-Piura. There is again the need for rapid implementation of activities for a second watershed in Colombia in FY15. As of the completion of this report, approval on FY15 new activities from USAID Colombia is still pending. PARA-Agua is positioning itself to meet its year two goals on time with the near-term authorization from the mission.

Also in Colombia, initially there was not as much interest in PARA-Agua activites from national hydrometeorologic institutions. PARA-Agua was able to overcome this challenge with direct engagement and a series of presentations of the project objectives in both Manizales and Bogota.

Work in Ecuador presents another significant challenge, as there is no longer a USAID Mission in neither country nor a USAID point of countact. Moreover, the COP has been instructed that no USG funds would be available to invite GOE participants to any of our workshops in the trans border watershed of Catamayo in Southern Ecuador. While project activities have not begun in earnest in Ecuador, PARA-Agua has taken steps to find implementation strategy in the country that address these serious contraints while still delivering results. The PARA-Agua team is prepared to face the challenges in Ecuador in close coordination with USAID.

Sustainability of the impact of finite project interventions is a challenge that PARA-Agua considers constantly. The CoP currently being designed under Task 1 is a key element in ensuring sustained impact of USAID investments through PARA-Agua. The project was able to develop a consortium as a legacy institution for the CoP. The partnership that will be formalized in FY15 Q1 is one that can foster and sustain the collaboration and capacity building initiated by PARA-Agua well into the future.

23 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 3. PLANNED ACTIVITIES FOR FY 2015 Q1

During FY14, PARA-Agua made significant progress in the two target watersheds in Peru and Colombia. The project also established a foundation of information, relationships, and strategy for expansion into new watersheds in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and other countries in the LAC region in FY15. By the end of Q1 FY15, the project will complete a second round of regional training workshops; develop a second toolkit based on the capacity building needs identified in the gap analysis; complete the development of the virtual platform to support the CoP; support the utilization of WEAP and the application of its output in the Chira-Piura and Chinchina watersheds; and the initiation of new programs Peru, Colombia (pending approval), Ecuador, and other LAC contries. The following are descriptions of the activities planned for the next quarter organized by Program Task:

TASK 1: STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF THE RESEARCH COMMUNITY TO GENERATE POLICY-ORIENTED DATA ON WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

• Task 1 is built upon a process of information gathering, consultation and planning with regional, national, and local stakeholders for target watersheds. This process is largely complete for the Chira-Piura and Chinchina Watersheds. PARA-Agua has also identified and built relationships with national and regional intuitions that will facilitate the efficient launch of project activities in new watersheds and countries. Task 1 related activities in Q1 will build upon this foundation and identify key research agencies and organizations for two new target watersheds in Peru and Colombia. Stakeholder workshops and meetings will be held for both watersheds. In consultation with the PARA-Agua COR and bilateral missions, the program may continue to lay the groundwork for a new watershed program in Ecuador and initiate new activities in Caribbean countries such as the Dominican Republic and Jamaica to support climate change adaptation. • Based on the capacity building priorities jointly defined by the science and policy communities in FY14, PARA-Agua will design a second set of regional capacity building workshops in Peru and Colombia in Q1. Implementation is currently scheduled for mid-January, 2015. The subject matter and the toolkit developed for these events will focus on the development of protocols to integrate public and private organizations in national information systems for climate change adaptation in watersheds. Similar to the first round of workshops completed in September, the information will be applied in the framework of existing watershed planning methods and systems in order to secure mainstreaming of the training exercises. Training will also be directed to male and female members of the research community, policy makers, decision-makers, and practitioners at the regional, national and watershed levels. This approach promotes multilevel discussion and agreements that can impact policy development and lead to the design of tangible adaptation measures. • During FY15, PARA-Agua will develop a virtual platform to support the CoP and design specific discussion modules within the CoP discussion modules that could, for example, provide continuity to trainings in PARA-Agua toolkits or WEAP utilization. The platform will be designed to connect people and promote collaboration in the application of these toolkits. In order to ensure sustainability of the CoP and dissemination/replication of best practices and tools developed by PARA-Agua, the consortium has been identified as the legacy institution to undertake continuity and sustainability efforts. For this reason, PARA-Agua will develop a joint plan for networking and funding strategies for continuity of capacity building in science-practice interactions with counterparts.

24 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 • During Q1 FY15, the project will incorporate feedback on the first toolkit and produce a final version. It will incorporate the exercises produced in the selected watersheds as a result of implementation through Task 2 activities. The final version of this toolkit will be then available in the CoP virtual platform and available for use of new groups by the end of Q1.

TASK 2: MAINSTREAMING AND INTEGRATING CLIMATE DATA INTO DECISION-MAKING RELATED TO WATERSHED MANAGEMENT

• A consultation workshop for the recently approved Quilca-Chili Watershed in Peru will be completed in Q1. Similar to the early efforts in Chira-Piura and Chinchina, the Q1 workshop for the Quilca-Chili watershed will establish strategies for better coordination between research community and watershed stakeholders. PARA-Agua will engage key members of the research community from Task 1 and watershed stakeholder representatives from Task 3 to participate in the workshop. Outreach will also be devoted to ensure that women participate in these forums and exchanges with local target communities to address gaps in access to information about climate issues. • During Q1 FY15, PARA-Agua will conduct a desk study and visit missions and/or other projects in non-Andean countries where opportunities and linkages are clear. Examples are the Dominican Republic and/or Jamaica. In addition, PARA-Agua will continue forging ties with USAID Guatemala and will increase exchanges with the CNCG project implemented by Rainforest Alliance. • PARA-Agua will arrange working group meetings to strengthen collaboration with relevant projects funded by USAID, including the U.S. State Department- supported ACCION and other development partners. This will be done in the first quarter of FY15 through consultation meetings with regional missions for identification of specific areas where PARA-Agua could complement on- going activities.

TASK 3: STRENGTHENING PLANNING SYSTEMS THAT OPTIMIZE WATER USE OVER THE WHOLE LENGTH OF WATERSHEDS IN THE CONTEXT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

• RDS interventions will conclude in the Chinchina Basin in Colombia with the organization of a Vulnerability Workshop in Q1. The Vulnerability Workshop will define the vulnerability of the current water management arrangements (e.g. physical infrastructure, water use patterns, regulatory regimes) in these basins to possible climate change and other planning uncertainties (e.g. population growth, changes in water use patterns, land use change) with respect to specific performance metrics identified by key actors in each basin. This information will allow the development of a baseline, which is a key step in demonstrating the additionality of specific water management adaptation options that will be considered in Year 3 of the PARA-Agua project (subject to exercising the first option year). • Following the completion of the vulnerability workshops planned for September 2014 in Chira- Piura and October 2015 in Chinchina, PARA-Agua will initiate activity to utilize WEAP models developed during Year 1, focusing on the key water management adaptations identified by basin actors and decision-makers. This process will take several months during which time all of the pertinent details related to these adaptation projects, including information on costs, can be collected, organized and introduced into the models. PARA-Agua anticipates that a set of runs that can be used to evaluate the performance of the selected projects will be completed by the end of December 2014. At that point the output of these runs will be used to develop a series

25 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 of dynamic data visualizations that will be presented to key actors and decision-makers as part of a first Performance Workshop at the onset of Q2. • Details of specific priority projects (e.g. location, physical characteristics, operating regimes, costs) will be developed in preparation for the next phase of the Robust Decision Support process to be implemented during year two of project implementation. • As mentioned above, work will be initiated in a new watershed in Peru during FY15. After a period of evaluation of potential basins, the recommendation is to launch promptly at the start of Q1 in the Quilca-Chili Basin in Peru. Q1 activities under Task 3 for the Quilca-Chili Basin will include stakeholder mapping, a problem formulation workshop, and the development of climate information database. • The project will continue to refine and advance their climate change scenario tools developed for the Year 1 target watersheds. This will include the further development of the user interface for translating climate projections into WEAP compatible formats; and the evaluation and validation of both the publicly available, global climate model projections from the IPCC Climate Model Inter comparison Version 5 (CMIP-5) archive and from the newly created, regional climate projections made under the Year 1 scope of work. These refined tools and new datasets will be used for the climate change scenarios workshop envisioned under this activity. The same process will be applied and tools developed for the new target watersheds in Peru and Colombia. • PARA-Agua has preliminarily identified the Rio Catamayo, which is a trans border system in the south as a potential target basin in Ecuador. The Catamayo System forms the headwaters of the Rio Chira System in Peru, which is part of the Chira-Piura System that has been the focus of RDS activity during Year 1. PARA-Agua is not likely to start full RDS work in the Catamayo Basin until Q3 or Q4 FY15 and upon award of the project’s option period. However, pending USAID approval, the project will initiate a limited suite of activities in early FY15 involving experience sharing among stakeholders, information exchanges, twinning, and other activities. These activities may be limited to academic organizations interested in climate change research and adaptation measures at the watershed level. • PARA-Agua will continue to development the action plan for the twinning partnership between watershed organizations in the Chinchina and Chira-Piura target watersheds. • To support implementation of adaptation interventions based on the RDS process and the WEAP system, PARA-Agua will facilitate linkages between watershed stakeholders and public and private sector financial institutions. During Q1 FY15, PARA-Agua will assist target watershed stakeholders in the identification and prioritization of adaptation projects for funding and implementation. In Peru, the process of identifying and prioritizing adaptation projects will be made following the findings of the water resources management plans registered by the National System of Public Investment (SNIP). The plans are developed and directed by the World Bank funded Modernization project.

FIRST QUARTER AND FY 2015 PLANNED ACTIVITIES RELATED TO PARA-AGUA’S GENDER-FOCUSED APPROACH

• The project will identify ways to support female leaders based on data and analysis that was collected during Year 1 from the actor mapping and consultative workshop. Specifically, given certain gaps in the research community to sufficiently apply a gender lens to climate related research, PARA-Agua would like to engage further with female scientists to showcase their leadership skills and highlight their research to with project stakeholders. • During FY15, PARA-Agua will focus on completing a Gender Analysis for the project. The Gender Analysis will focus on how the adoption of climate-smart practices involves a series of

26 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 decisions based on multiple goals held by men and women. Men and women often attach different weight to different goals, and the adoption of new climate-sensitive practices has different implications to men’s and women’s income, labor requirements and well-being. The Gender Analysis will assess the different roles that men and women play in decision-making within each of the watersheds, explore the gender dynamics of relationships between men and women within key partner institutions, and explore the differences in access to and control of resources and information with respect to water resources management. • The findings from this Gender Analysis will inform implementation activities, ensure continuity in learning, and support a holistic approach in integrating gender into PARA-Agua. Furthermore, the analysis seeks to identify new entry points for addressing gender issues within the context of the goals and objectives of the project. Results of the gender analysis will provide the basis for the formulation of the GAP - the programmatic and organizational road map for integrating gender into planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of project activities.

27 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 4. RESULTS During the first year of activity of the PARA-Agua project, substantial progress was made in the implementation of technical activities. There was significant participation and collaboration from the key watershed counterparts in Colombia and Peru. As a result of the implementation of PARA-Agua’s technical activities, several initiatives were identified, planned, or implemented towards meeting our targets for the project’s first year. Table 2 below contains a summary of progress and performance during PARA-Agua’s first year.

4.1. MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS PER INTERMEDIATE RESULT AND INDICATOR

SO: IDENTIFY AND TAKE ACTIONS THAT INCREASE CLIMATE RESILIENCE

NUMBER OF WATERSHED LEVEL INVESTMENTS OR OTHER CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION INTERVENTIONS PLANNED OR IMPLEMENTED

28 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 The potential for alternative water management strategies/climate adaptation actions to reduce vulnerabilities identified with watershed stakeholders during this first year are currently being used as the basis for the preparation of applications for funding from both international (e.g. the UNFCCC Green Development Fund) and national (e.g. the Colombia Adaptation Fund) sources. In March of 2014, PARA-Agua lead a workshop in Piura aimed at identifying climate change adaptation initiatives in the Chira-Piura basin for future funding. After a participatory process, 17 projects were identified with an investment potential in the Chira Piura basin. In Colombia, PARA-Agua is supporting CORPOCALDAS implement a similar process in the Chinchina watershed. The framework is called Watershed Management and Land Use Plan of the Chinchina River (POMCA, in Spanish). PARA-Agua will initiate coordination with counterparts and watershed decision makers to help them secure financing for development of plans that include specific adaptation measures to reduce vulnerabilities and increase resiliency to climate change.

PARA-Agua is committed to reporting strong and reliable data that meet USAID’s standards of validity, integrity, precision, reliability, and timeliness. To report on this indicator, the M&E Specialist not only conducted personal and virtual interviews with country coordinators and technical leads, but also reviewed original commitment letters from stakeholders that identified these 17 projects in the Chira-Piura watershed and sign-in sheets.

IR 1: STRENGTHEN CAPACITY OF RESEARCH COMMUNITY TO GENERATE POLICY-ORIENTED DATA ON WATERSHED MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

NUMBER OF INSTITUTIONS WITH IMPROVED CAPACITY TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHANGE ISSUES AS A RESULT OF USG ASSISTANCE

Several institutions participated in our capacity building workshops. A total of seven institutions have increased their capacity as a result of PARA-Agua interventions (see Annex 2). In Chira-Piura watershed, as a result of the modeling workshops, five institutions formed a modeling group in April of 2014. This initiative has been so successful, that the contiguous Chancay and Tumbes watersheds in Peru’s Lambayeque and Tumbes Regions, respectively, have demonstrated interest in replicating the experience in their locations. Furthermore, during year 2, the project will establish similar modeling groups in the Chinchina watershed in Colombia and Quilca-Chili watershed in Arequipa. These groups will serve as the foundation for the CoP, which will be implemented during year 2.

It is worth mentioning the case of ANA, which is not only a beneficiary of our capacity building interventions, but also a partner for implementing PARA-Agua’s technical activities. Cooperation with key stakeholder institutions at the national and regional-levels was formalized during year 1. Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) were signed with Peru’s National Water Authority (ANA) and the Regional Autonomous Corporation of Caldas (CORPOCALDAS) in Colombia. Furthermore, PARA-Agua engaged the Director of the World Bank Water Resources Modernization (WRM) Project in Peru to discuss collaboration with PARA-Agua. The WRM project supports the capacity building of institutions in terms of participatory, integrated, basin-scale WRM at the national and watershed levels.

To report on this indicator, the M&E specialist conducted personal and virtual interviews with country coordinators and technical leads. Original attendance sheets were reviewed, but attendance to a workshop by itself did not constitute evidence of capacity built. These data were triangulated with news articles posted

2 These projects have been included in an “Acta de Compromiso” (commitment letter) signed by Peru’s Water Authority (ANA)

29 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 by local media and on these institutions’ websites, project reports on improved performance, and project photos, a minor data quality limitations on this indicator is the willingness of the data sources (i.e. especially governmental institutions) to share data. The project has benefited from having an expert known to the Piura region as Country coordinator, as she is able to quickly access information from these agencies. New regional authorities in Peru will likely start in January 2015 and the project will make a concerted effort to continue building trust and a productive working relationship with the new appointees to water and climate change agencies. PARA-Agua will provide training to these institutions on the collection and maintenance of original verification documentation.

IR 2: MAINSTREAM AND INTEGRATE CLIMATE DATA INTO DECISION-MAKING RELATED TO WATERSHED MANAGEMENT NUMBER OF STAKEHOLDERS USING CLIMATE INFORMATION IN THEIR DECISION-MAKING AS A RESULT OF USG ASSISTANCE The identification of stakeholders relevant to the governance of water resources within the Chira-Piura basin and their roles within the planning and decision-making processes was done via survey and actor-mapping process that was implemented during March 2014. This process led to the identification of ten representatives from 30 relevant institutions and stakeholder groups in the Chira Piura basin, which included public and private agencies, research and academic institutions, as well as a number of agricultural associations. Many of these groups have participated in basin planning processes in the past, such as the Water Resources Management Plan for Chira-Piura (PGRH-CP). PARA-Agua is bringing successful relevant initiatives in Latin America to our targeted watershed, so stakeholders can increase their capacity to use climate information in their decision-making processes. In Piura the project facilitated a workshop with representatives from Ecuador’s Water Protection Fund (FONAG and FORAGUA, in Spanish). This successful event had the objective of establishing the road map to promote the creation of a Regional Water and Sanitation Fund in the Chira Piura watershed (FORASAN, in Spanish). Specialists from the Technical Secretariat of the Chira-Piura watershed Water Council introduced the progress made towards the implementation of FORASAN, which will be a financial tool that will use climate data to identify funds needed for the implementation of the Water Resources Management Plan for the Chira-Piura watershed. In the case of the Chinchina watershed, PARA-Agua conducted a workshop on interpretation of climate data for decision-making in Bogota in September 2014, where 18 representatives from the scientific/research and policy/management commnies were introduced to a set of tools and a methodology to present climate data and scientific study results in way that can effect watershed policy and management decisions. These stakeholders have been applying the new information acquired to monitor weather to produce climate projections (e.g., anticipated temperature, risk projections for extreme weather events, and water availability under future scenarios). This information is being used to better understand the consequences of increased temperatures on crops, livestock, and changes in stream flow due to precipitation shifts. To report on this indicator, the M&E specialist conducted personal and virtual interviews with country coordinators and technical leads and reviewed project reports. A significant data quality limitation is the availability of data within this reporting timeframe. Major technical interventions were implemented only until the first trimester of 2014 and implementation of the newly acquired tools, methodologies, and information from workshops will likely make much more significant results as FY15 unfolds. PARA-Agua conducted an M&E training workshop for all project staff and the M&E specialist will work together with country coordinators and technical leads to capture useful information. Furthermore, PARA-Agua will incorporate training to these stakeholders on the collection and maintenance of original verification documentation into project workshops.

30 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 IR 3: STRENGTHENING PLANNING SYSTEMS THAT OPTIMIZE WATER USE OVER THE WHOLE LENGTH OF WATERSHEDS IN THE CONTEXT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION

NUMBER OF CLIMATE ADAPTATION TOOLS, TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODOLOGIES DEVELOPED, TESTED AND/OR ADOPTED AS A RESULT OF USG ASSISTANCE

This first project year has been very productive in terms of tools, technologies, and methodologies for adaptation to climate change. Stakeholder institutions are now using a total of six new tools and methodologies as a result of PARA-Agua’s efforts. The distinct tools include climate scenario modules developed for use in R, customized Tableau interfaces, and WEAP models designed for the two FY14 target watersheds. PARA-Agua also developed a methodology to identify watershed level projects for future funding in the Chira-Piura watershed, described under the Standard Objective section before. It includes indicators, selection criteria, and next steps. This methodology has been tested and adopted by the water council of the Chira-Piura watershed. Also, two specific WEAP models were developed, tested, and adopted in the Chira-Piura and Chinchina basins. In addition, the climate scenario software “R” was adjusted to fit the needs of each basin. The Tableau software was developed to visualize the outputs of the WEAP runs, one for each watershed. While R, WEAP and Tableau all existed prior to the start of the project, they have been tailored for the local conditions in each watershed. Furthermore, although NCAR developed the R-based tool, it is being applied by technical stakeholders in each basin to develop the climate scenarios they are using as part of the WEAP-Based RDS analysis.

To report on this indicator, the M&E specialist conducted personal and virtual interviews with country coordinators and technical leads. In addition, project reports describing these methodologies and tools were analyzed. The project did not identify known data quality limitations on this indicator.

NUMBER OF CLIMATE STAKEHOLDERS WITH INCREASED CAPACITY TO ADAPT TO THE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE VARIABILITY AND CHANGE

In Piura, PARA-Agua conducted a workshop to implement a participatory process to produce technical proposals for projects aimed at adapting to climate variability and to set the foundation for future strategic partnerships that lead to an increase in the resilience and adaptation to climate change as well as replication of best practices. As a result, 15 representatives from various organizations were trained, identified infrastructure adaptation projects, and initatied technical proposals (see Annex 4). In the case of the Chinchina CORPOCALDAS is leading, with assistance from PARA-Agua, a process called Watershed Management and Land Use Plan of the Chinchina river (POMCA, in Spanish) to assist stakeholders develop technical proposals (expedientes técnicos) for the already-identified initiatives to address climate variability and change. In all cases, these stakeholders will receive support from the project to complete the application process for funding of these initiatives. As the second year unfolds, PARA-Agua will make a concerted effort to not only compensate for this underperformance, but also exceed FY2015 expectations on this indicator.

To report on this indicator, the M&E specialist reviewed workshop minutes and reports from stakeholders that applied the methodology PARA-Agua created to prioritize adaptation projects in the Chira-Piura basin. In the Chinchina watershed, a known data limitation is the availability of data within reporting timeframes, given the time these climate-change adaptation projects take to develop technical proposals, secure funding, and for actual construction. Another limitation is the attribution effect: many of these stakeholders represent organizations that have already some capacity built by themselves or through projects similar to PARA-Agua.

31 4TH QUARTER – JULY TO SEPTEMBER 2014 Furthermore, PARA-Agua will incorporate training to these stakeholders on the collection and maintenance of original verification documentation into project workshops.

NUMBER OF WOMEN’S GROUPS WITH INCREASED CAPACITY TO ADAPT TO IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE

In its interventions, the PARA-Agua project evaluated the presence, participation, and leadership of women in relation to men within organizations the project works with. Specific aspects considered include: decision-making in water management issues, influence in policy-making, work with users (large, small) of water resources, production of research of water resources and application of research results in water resources. In all cases the involvement of men in all aspects evaluated was overwhelming. However, it has been observed that women have an important role when making decisions, establishing relationships with large and small users, conducting and applying research related to water resources.

The PARA-Agua project has identified six female thought leaders to participate in workshops and trainings, particularly from partner institutions with whom the project works (see Annex 5). These institutions include watershed councils, research centers and institutions, and government institutions such as CORPOCALDAS and the regional government of Piura. PARA-Agua has maintained consistent follow-up with these female leaders to ensure that they are invited to all training workshops and that trainings are conducted with gender-sensitive facilitation techniques that promote equitable participation in the sessions. Female participation in these key PARA-Agua activities has not only lead to more balanced participation in the trainings, but has also directly contributed to an improvement in their capacity in knowledge and skills that are essential for them to contribute to and influence decision- making. Furthermore, it has provided excellent opportunities for their professional development.

Of particular interest is Delia Huañambal, Director of Water Resource Information (GIS) of the Chancay- Lambayeque watershed. Although the PARA-Agua project is currently not working in a target watershed, Ms. Huañambal is replicating hydrological modeling trainings in her basin as a result of the PARA- Agua trainings. She has even expressed interest in founding and leading a modeling group in the Chancay- Lambayeque watershed similar to the one PARA-Agua facilitated in the Chira-Piura basin. To report on this indicator, the M&E specialist interviewed country coordinators and reviewed project documents. A known data limitation is mainstreaming of gender data collection and capacity of data collectors (i.e. technical leads and country coordinators). Now with a gender specialist fully on board, PARA Agua will use her technical expertise to conduct an assessment of our gender indicator data collection and then sensitization trainings to project staff.

4.2. BASELINE DEVELOPMENT

The PARA-Agua team collected indicator baseline data at the outset of activity implementation following guidance from the Performance Management Plan and applicable Performance Indicator Reference Sheets. The team used two different data collection methods: one for output indicators and one for outcome indicators. For output indicators IR 2.1; 3.1, PARA-Agua documented a baseline of zero and recorded this information in AECOM’s standard data reporting form. For outcome indicators IR 1.1; 3.2; 3.3, PARA-Agua has collected baseline data by conducting surveys and face-to-face interviews, which took place at consultation workshops. The interviews helped the PARA-Agua team assess the stakeholder institution’s current capacities and to identify specific institutional needs as relevant to PARA-Agua’s indicators. Relevant project staff will analyze this information in order to finalize the baseline analysis.
