Background to Adaptation in
CaPP
• CaPP new focus on adaptation (mandate from BMZ)
• Goal: Mainstreaming adaptation into DC
• Screening process as a basis for identification of
sectors and regions
• Finding of overlaps with ongoing TC projects
CaPP
Holistic Approach to Adaptation
Taking into account the sociological, economic and ecological dimension of adaptation
Learning from the past for the future Protecting human lifes Strengthening the adaptive capacity and
resilience of poor people to reduce their vulnerability
Institution building and institutional changes
CaPP
Challenges in Mainstreaming
• Availability of opportunities for no-regret project options and win-win solutions
• Learning from each other (internationally, multidisciplinary)
• Finding right partners & approaches
• Openess of partner countries & collegues
CaPP
Identification of Areas for Intervention
Take into account:– COP decisions, NAPA, PRSP, MDG, 2015, MEA, – Disaster Prevention
Awareness creation in German Development Scene
Screening of relevant areasto prioritise regions and sectors in GTZ

CaPP
Diversification of Risks
Build on rich traditional knowledge (drought-resistant crops, coping strategies)
Test & further develop water-harvesting/ saving technologies
Promote income generating activities as a risk management strategy to reduce vulnerabilities and build resilience
Develop ideas on early warning systems
Include vulnerability indicators
CaPP
Identification of linkagesIdentification of linkages
Including the informations out of regional modells into improved early warning systems
Shift of paradigm in GTZ from reaction to preventionMainstreaming into Rural Development, Spatial Planning, CCD
Close cooperation with GTZ division Disaster Prevention Identifying common partners and pilot projects, long term perspective
Learning from disaster risk management Early warning, disaster mitigation, climate variability & weather extremes
CaPP’s adaptation concept include the recognition & further development of disaster risk managent instruments
Working relations/exchange of information (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, DKKV, International Red Cross, ISDR)
