PROJECT TITLE

Promoting Regional Approaches to Inclusive and Gender-Responsive Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Adaptation in South and Southeast Asia



Abbreviation

IDRR & CCA


 

PROJECT BRIEF 
 (Narrative – 500 words max including project aim/goal, approach, beneficiaries, intended changes etc.) 

This project promotes inclusive, gender-responsive and whole-of-society approaches to Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA), contributing to the Sendai Framework, the Paris Agreement and the SDGs. It is a regional initiative implemented jointly with Indonesia and the Philippines; in Bangladesh it works across 18 wards of Rayenda and Southkhali Unions in Sharankhola Upazila, Bagerhat District.

The approach centers on building the leadership and active participation of women and persons with disabilities in DRR and CCA planning, implementation and advocacy. Through capacity building, evidence-based research, ecosystem restoration and livelihood diversification, the project reduces disaster and climate risks while strengthening sustainable, climate-resilient livelihoods. It also supports policy review and advocacy to mainstream gender and disability perspectives into DRR/CCA frameworks, and facilitates regional learning exchanges among government, NGOs, academia and community-based organisations.

The project directly benefits 2,760 people, including 1,520 women and 375 persons with disabilities — including Ward officials, Disaster Management Committee members and household members from the local community.

Expected changes: communities and decision-makers identify and act on climate and disaster risks in a coordinated, inclusive way; women and persons with disabilities gain economic resilience through protected ecosystems, nature-based solutions and diversified climate-sensitive livelihoods; and organisations of women and persons with disabilities coordinate more effectively with state actors, NGOs and academia for inclusive DRR and CCA.

Objectives/Outcomes/Long-term Results

Overall Impact: Contribute to the implementation of the Sendai Framework (SFDRR), the Paris Agreement and the SDGs through an inclusive, whole-of-society approach to disaster and climate risk reduction, promoting leadership of women and persons with disabilities in DRR/CCA at local, national and regional levels.

Outcome 1: Households, communities and decision-makers identify climate and disaster risks, factor them into coordinated action, and actively involve at-risk groups such as women and persons with disabilities.

Outcome 2: Protected ecosystems and natural resources, diversified and climate-sensitive livelihoods, and improved access to clean water contribute to the economic resilience of women and persons with disabilities.

Outcome 3: Organisations of women and persons with disabilities, state actors, NGOs, academia and other stakeholders learn from each other and coordinate the planning and implementation of inclusive DRR and CCA.

Major Activities
  1. Training of key actors (WDMC/UDMC/UzDMC members, government officials, project staff) on disability-inclusive DRR and CCA.
  2. Formation, activation and strengthening of Self-Help Groups (SHGs), a Women’s Group and an Apex Body of persons with disabilities; leadership, advocacy and VSLA training.
  3. Review/update of Risk Reduction Action Plans (RRAP) and Contingency Plans; technical consultation on national disaster management policy.
  4. Community awareness activities: street drama, mock drills, courtyard/school sessions, orientation on the Standing Orders on Disaster (SOD 2019).
  5. Climate-resilient livelihood and ecosystem support: homestead gardening and vermicompost production, rainwater harvesting, solar support, improved cook stoves (Bondhu Chula), WADI water-disinfection devices.
  6. Start-up livelihood/business support to at-risk households and persons with disabilities, including a digital marketing (digital inclusion in livelihoods) training and equipment package (tablet, internet package, ring light, microphone/speaker) for 15 participants.
  7. Support to the Apex Body for income generation through a water purification (Reverse Osmosis) and marketing facility.
  8. Documentation, publication and media dissemination of good practices; participation in national, regional and global conferences and forums (e.g. GPDRR, APMCDRR, COP).
  9. Establishment/strengthening of a Community of Practice (CoP) with academia (University of Dhaka – IDMVS), national networks (NACOM, Global Youth Net) and other stakeholders.
