Proposal for Nepal AFB/PPRC.12/10 17 June 2013 Adaptation Fund Board Project and Programme Review Committee Twelfth Meeting Bonn, 1-2 July 2013 Agenda item 4 g) PROPOSAL FOR NEPAL AFB/PPRC.12/10 I. Background 1. The Operational Policies and Guidelines (OPG) for Parties to Access Resources from the Adaptation Fund (the Fund), adopted by the Adaptation Fund Board (the Board), state in paragraph 42 that regular adaptation project and programme proposals, i.e. those that request funding exceeding US$ 1 million, would undergo either a one-step, or a two-step approval process. In case of the one-step process, the proponent would directly submit a fully-developed project proposal. In the two-step process, the proponent would first submit a brief project concept, which would be reviewed by the Project and Programme Review Committee (PPRC) and would have to receive the endorsement of the Board. In the second step, the fully- developed project/programme document would be reviewed by the PPRC, and would ultimately require the Board’s approval. 2. The Templates approved by the Board (OPG, Annex 3) do not include a separate template for project and programme concepts but provide that these are to be submitted using the project and programme proposal template. The section on Adaptation Fund Project Review Criteria states: For regular projects using the two-step approval process, only the first four criteria will be applied when reviewing the 1st step for regular project concept. In addition, the information provided in the 1st step approval process with respect to the review criteria for the regular project concept could be less detailed than the information in the request for approval template submitted at the 2nd step approval process. Furthermore, a final project document is required for regular projects for the 2nd step approval, in addition to the approval template. 3. The first four criteria mentioned above are: 1. Country Eligibility, 2. Project Eligibility, 3. Resource Availability, and 4. Eligibility of NIE/MIE. 4. The fifth criterion, applied when reviewing a fully-developed project document, is: 5. Implementation Arrangements. 5. In its 17th meeting, the Board decided (Decision B.17/7) to approve “Instructions for preparing a request for project or programme funding from the Adaptation Fund”, contained in the Annex to document AFB/PPRC.8/4, which further outlines applicable review criteria for both concepts and fully-developed proposals. 6. Based on the Board Decision B.9/2, the first call for project and programme proposals was issued and an invitation letter to eligible Parties to submit project and programme proposals to the Fund was sent out on April 8, 2010. 7. According to the Board Decision B.12/10, a project or programme proposal needs to be received by the secretariat no less than nine weeks before a Board meeting, in order to be considered by the Board in that meeting. 8. The following fully-developed project document titled “Adapting to Climate Induced Threats to Food Production and Food Security in the Karnali Region of Nepal” was submitted for 1 AFB/PPRC.12/10 Nepal by the World Food Programme (WFP), which is a Multilateral Implementing Entity of the Fund. This is the third submission of the project as a one-step proposal but the first time it is presented to the PPRC. It was submitted to the 19th and the 20th meetings of the Board but was withdrawn both times by the proponent following initial technical review. The current submission was received by the secretariat in time to be considered in the 21st Adaptation Fund Board meeting. The secretariat carried out a technical review of the project proposal, using the diary number NPL/MIE/Food/2012/1, and completed a review sheet. 9. In accordance with a request to the secretariat made by the Board in its 10th meeting, the secretariat shared this review sheet with WFP, and offered it the opportunity of providing responses before the review sheet was sent to the PPRC. 10. The secretariat had received in March 2013 comments regarding the previous version of this proposal from a Nepalese civil society organization, Clean Energy Nepal (CEN). At that time, however, the proposal had already been withdrawn by the proponent, and a final technical review did not take place. Following the initial submission of the proposal to the 21st meeting, CEN submitted comments on the latest version. The secretariat considered the comments in the technical review as reference and, as required by the Board decision B.18/24 (b), made them publicly available on the Adaptation Fund website, after confirming with CEN that it did not object to doing so. As further required by the same Board decision, these comments from the civil society are annexed to the current project document. 11. The secretariat is submitting to the Project and Programme Review Committee the summary and, pursuant to Decision B.17/15, the final technical review of the project, both prepared by the secretariat, along with the final submission of the proposal in the following section, and the comments received from the civil society in the last section. 2 AFB/PPRC.12/10 Project Summary Nepal – Adapting to Climate Induced Threats to Food Production and Food Security in the Karnali Region of Nepal Implementing Entity: WFP Programme Execution Cost: USD 122,000.00 Programme Total Cost: USD 8,140,604.00 Implementing Fee: USD 702,321.00 Financing Requested: USD 8,964,925.00 Programme Background and Context: The goal of the proposed project is to increase adaptive capacity of climate vulnerable and food insecure poor by improved management of livelihood assets in the Karnali mountain districts of Nepal. It has three objectives: 1. Strengthened local capacity to identify climate risks and design adaptive strategies 2. Diversified livelihood and strengthened food security for climate vulnerable poor in target areas 3. Increased resilience of natural systems that support livelihoods to climate change induced stresses The proposed project aims to meet these objectives, in a situation where the rural agricultural livelihoods depend on the health of forest, land and water resources, by enhancing agro- ecosystem services that increase production, reduce food insecurity and also directly generate income and energy for rural people. Component 1: Develop local, district and national capacity to plan, implement and monitor adaptation and risk reduction actions (USD 1,275,368) Component 1 aims to lay the foundation on which project interventions will be designed and implemented, and plans to do so by enabling the active participation of climate vulnerable and food insecure poor in developing local climate risk reduction strategies and actions, and strengthening ownership and management of climate risk reduction activities and replication of lessons at district/national levels. The specific activities would include training and mobilizing community representatives, field coordinators and technicians at village, ilaka (government extension unit) and district to design, implement and monitor local adaptation strategies, developing local climate adaptation and food security plans with prioritized actions; and integrating gender and social inclusion in to the adaptation planning processes. The component would also integrate local adaptation plans into sector-wise, local and district planning processes; integrated climate resilience to planning processes and development projects of key national ministries; and conduct periodic assessment and document project lessons for dissemination at community, district and regional levels. 3 AFB/PPRC.12/10 Component 2: Build household and community resilience and increase adaptive capacity of climate vulnerable poor in 21 VDCs in Mugu, Kalikot and Jumla districts (USD 6,865,236) Component 2 would aim at diversifying and strengthening livelihoods, livelihood assets and improved access to food for climate vulnerable households. It would plan to achieve this through: providing increased income opportunity for vulnerable households, especially during off-season, through building physical and natural livelihood assets; increasing local availability of and access to food and nutrition through better storage and value-addition in all target village development committees (VDCs); using improved and adapted current crop and livestock management practices to climate risks; increasing income through livelihood and agricultural diversification using local resources; and introducing renewable energy based systems to support women-led enterprises. 4 AFB/PPRC.12/10 ADAPTATION FUND BOARD SECRETARIAT TECHNICAL REVIEW OF PROJECT/PROGRAMME PROPOSAL PROJECT/PROGRAMME CATEGORY: REGULAR PROJECT _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Country/Region: Nepal Project Title: Adapting to Climate Induced Threats to Food Production and Food Security in the Karnali Region of Nepal AF Project ID: NPL/MIE/Food/2012/1 IE Project ID: Requested Financing from Adaptation Fund (US Dollars): 8,964,925 Regular Project Concept Approval Date: n/a Anticipated Submission of final RP document (if applicable): n/a Reviewer and contact person: Mikko Ollikainen Co-reviewer(s): Yoko Watanabe NIE/MIE Contact Person: Marco Cavalcante, Kishor Aryal _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Review Questions Comments on 16 May 2013 Comments on 5 June 2013 Criteria 1.

  • Pray for Nepal
    Pray for Nepal Humla Mugu Jumla Kalikot Dolpa Karnali, Mugu Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Thank-You for committing to join with us to pray for the well-being of every village in our wonderful country. Jesus modeled his love for every village when he was going from one city and village to another with his disciples. Next, Jesus would mentor his disciples to do the same by sending them out to all the villages. Later, he would monitor the work of the disciples and the 70 as they were sent out two-by-two to all the villages. (Luke 8-10) But, how can we pray for the 3,984 VDCs in our Country? In the time of Nehemiah, his brother brought him news that the walls of Jerusalem were torn down. The wall represented protection, safety, blessing, and a future. Nehemiah prayed, fasted, and repented for the sins of the people. God answered Nehemiah’s prayers. The huge task to re-build the walls became possible through God’s blessings, each person building in front of their own houses, and the builders continuing even in the face of great persecution. For us, each village is like a brick in the wall. Let us pray for every village so that there are no holes in the wall. Each person praying for the villages in their respective areas would ensure a systematic approach so that all the villages of the state would be covered in prayer. Some have asked, “How do you eat an Elephant?” (How do you work on a giant project?) Others have answered, “One bite at a time.” (One step at a time - in small pieces).

  • How Does Social Protection Contribute to Social Inclusion in Nepal?
    February 2014 Report How does social protection contribute to social inclusion in Nepal? Evidence from the Child Grant in the Karnali Region Tej Prasad Adhikari1, Fatik Bahadur Thapa1, Sonam Tamrakar1, Prakash Buda Magar1, Jessica Hagen-Zanker2 and Babken Babajanian2 1NEPAN 2ODI This study uses a social exclusion lens to analyse the effects of Nepal’s Child Grant in Karnali region and tests assumptions about the role social protection can play in contributing to social inclusion and poverty reduction. The study used mixed methods and employed a quasi-experimental impact evaluation. The findings show that in the first three years of implementation, the Child Grant has had only small effects on some indicators of social inclusion, most notably access to a more diversified diet.
