CGIAR COVID-19 Hub: Work Area 3
Support country COVID-19
responses
OBJECTIVE:
Establish a response network across CGIAR
partner countries and provide national
partners with analyses, evidence-based
recommendations and scalable solutions on
policies, strategies and investment options for
integrated COVID-19 crisis and recovery
responses.

Supporting country COVID-19 responses (work area 3)
How:
• CGIAR country teams are tasked with
implementing a country engagement process
for developing and implementing (in 2021) a
cross-CGIAR COVID-19 research action plan.
• Expertise drawn from a cross-country Working
Group comprising economic modeling, food
production and supply, nutrition, gender, social
protection, and One Health.

COVID-19 Hub countries
• Pilot countries: Since September 2020,
cross-CGIAR country teams in
Bangladesh and Ethiopia are facilitating
coordinated, multi-disciplinary CGIAR
research response to the pandemic.
2021 action plans are drafted for
consultation with national partners.
• Additional countries: Malawi, Myanmar
and Nigeria country teams are joining
the Hub starting in January 2021.

Social protection programs in Africa aim to promote livelihoods, provide social assistance, and protect vulnerable populations against risks. However, coverage of social protection is extremely low compared to other regions. While agriculture-led growth can reduce poverty, many Africans remain vulnerable to weather and other shocks. Graduation programs that combine cash transfers with livelihood support have shown the most consistent positive impacts. For social protection systems to be successful in Africa, countries will need to adopt a systems approach and consider design features like coordination, sustainability and national ownership.

African Regional Strategic Analysis and Knowledge Support System (ReSAKSS)

The document summarizes the social protection commitments in the Malabo Declaration and lessons from the Biennial Review report. The Malabo Declaration commits to integrating agricultural productivity measures with social protection initiatives focusing on vulnerable groups. It also commits to strengthening food reserves, early warning systems, and school feeding programs using local food. The Biennial Review found Mali, South Africa, and Zimbabwe on track to meet social protection budget commitments. However, data availability and quality on social protection needs improvement. Recommendations include improving data collection from national statistics agencies and surveys as well as resource mobilization.

This document outlines the objectives and structure of the Targeted Topics Forum on Coordinating Climate-Resilient Development. The forum aims to: 1) develop strategies for high-level political support for mainstreaming climate adaptation; 2) gain practical knowledge on integrating adaptation into sectoral planning; and 3) identify roles of different actors to coordinate adaptation actions. It consists of three components: a steering committee of 11 countries, a secretariat, and global participation of donors and practitioners. The goal is to enhance bilateral support for national adaptation plans through improved coordination, leadership, learning, and exchange.

OECD Environment

This document discusses monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of climate change adaptation efforts. It notes that over 20 countries have developed or are developing M&E systems to track adaptation progress, mainly related to national climate strategies. M&E of commitments in countries'Intended Nationally Determined Contributions provides an additional opportunity. National M&E systems vary greatly in their policy context, purpose, institutional arrangements, approach, reporting, and resource needs. The document examines examples of M&E systems and reporting formats used in several countries. It emphasizes that there is no single best approach and M&E requires considering its purpose, intended users, and appropriate reporting level and format given decision-making needs.

Communicating Adaptation information: African Countries' INDCs, by Kennedy Mbeva

OECD Environment

This document summarizes a presentation on communicating adaptation information in African countries' intended nationally determined contributions (INDCs). It finds that African INDCs prioritize adaptation and provide detailed adaptation strategies, costs, and financing needs. However, many African countries' adaptation actions are conditional on receiving financial support. The presentation also notes linkages between adaptation and sustainable development in African INDCs, but few mention alignment with sustainable development goals.

National Contributions in Adaptation - Peru, by Eduardo Durand

OECD Environment

Peru formulated its national contributions for adaptation (NDC) through a multi-step process that included selecting thematic areas based on vulnerability criteria, developing proposals based on sectoral and national policies, reviewing proposals with competent sectors, holding public consultations, and approval by a multisectoral commission. The NDC includes detailed information for each thematic area (agriculture, water resources, forestry, industry, public health) to achieve intermediate goals. Peru proposes communicating progress on its NDC through its upcoming Biennial Update Report and by defining a structure for adaptation communications, proposing a vulnerability indicator, and developing a monitoring and reporting system to measure resilience according to its National Strategy on Climate Change.

Evaluating and managing for results - Experiences from Norway

Development Co-operation Directorate (DCD-DAC)

The evaluations commissioned in 2011 could not sufficiently report on outcomes or impact levels. A study was conducted to identify problems, bottlenecks, and improvements to demonstrate the difference of Norwegian aid. Key findings showed handbooks and regulations were generally of good quality but grants lacked results frameworks. Weak reporting on results was also an issue. Reasons for these issues included a lack of prioritization and incentives from leaders as well as competing priorities and pressure to spend funds quickly. Real-time evaluations of REDD+ initiatives aim to provide a platform for learning and discussion while programs are ongoing but struggle with information access given dynamic, political contexts. Improving results management requires prioritization from leaders, proper incentives and resources, realistic goals and indicators set at the

OECD Environment

This document summarizes Armida Andres' presentation on estimating finance needs and developing effective biodiversity finance plans from a Philippine perspective. It discusses how the BIOFIN methodology was used to cost the actions in the Philippine Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (PBSAP) over 2013-2028. This facilitated analysis to better implement the PBSAP and inform conservation policies, financing, and investment choices. The costing helped secure $10 million for the government's coastal program in 2018. The process involved stakeholders and produced messaging targeting various sectors. The iterative costing of the PBSAP through BIOFIN emerged as a best practice for transformation.

Green Talks LIVE | Global Plastics Outlook

OECD Environment

On 22 February 2022, Shardul Agrawala of the OECD Environment Directorate gave a presentation of the report "Global Plastics Outlook: Economic Drivers, Environmental Impacts and Policy Options" including its key findings along with four key levers to bend the plastics curve. This Outlook is the first report to comprehensively take stock of current plastics production, use and waste generation, uncover the underlying economic drivers and map the related environmental impacts on a global level. The report intends to help decision-makers understand the direction in which we are heading and assess which policies can support a more sustainable and circular management of plastic materials. This was followed by a panel discussion with Prof. Roland Geyer, University of California, Santa Barbara, Bren School of Environmental Science & Management and Miranda Schnitger, Government Lead, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, with a Q&A session with Peter Borkey, Maarten Dubois and Elisa Lanzi, OECD.
