Mainstreaming DRR into Development Planning By Negussie Kefeni Disaster Risk Mangement & Food Security Sector, Ministry of Agriculture Dhaka Bangladesh April,2013
Disaster risks: Context of Ethiopia • Ethiopia is still highly vulnerable to a wide range of CC induced natural as well as man-made disasters. • Drought remains the country’s leading major hazard while flood is the second major hazard next to drought. • Recent experience shows an apparent marked increase in area coverage and frequency of such disasters • Climate Change and associated risks are and will continue to affect the economy in general and agriculture and FS in particular 2
Background :Disaster Management in Ethiopia Crisis management focused:  Pre-1973: no organized DM system, ad-hoc response to crises  1973: Relief & Rehabilitation Commission (RRC)  1993: National Policy on Disaster Prevention & Management  2004: Disaster Prevention and Preparedness Agency (DPPA)  PSNP opened a new chapter in the history of DM in Ethiopia by shifting the focus from crisis management to risk management Risk management focused:  2008: Disaster Risk Management and Food Security Sector (DRMFSS). 3
• National Policy on Disaster Prevention & Management (NPDPM) – 1993 – Focus on response largely to droughts – Actions not backed by risk assessments • National Policy and Strategy on Disaster Risk Management – awaiting approval – Full DRM cycle – prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery and rehabilitation – Focus on proactive risk management – Aligned with the Hyogo Framework for Action – Multi-hazard and multi-sector approach – Informed decision making based on strong risk assessments and early warning system – Legal backing with proper institutional structure – Multi sectoral – Mainstreaming into development plans, strategies and policies. 4 Policy and Strategy
Disaster Risk Management –Strategic Programme & Investment Framework (DRM-SPIF)  Translating the new DRM approach into action  Designed to achieve the goals and targets of the Growth & Transformation Plan  Will help harmonize DRM initiatives and create synergies for a more effective implementation and maximize the available resource efficiency of utilization  Main features – Aligned with the new revised DRM Policy, HFA and GTP. – Presents all DRM programme components along the different phases of DRM and their interrelationships – Substantively defines and costs (in detail) the various DRM components/programmes – Provides a mechanism for assessing progress and evaluating results on DRM 5

Risk reduction measures • Large government DRR/CCA programmes supported by development partners which are being implemented community level to address disaster risk and impacts of CC (WDRP,PSNP,MERET,CRGE,Coping with Drought and CCA project, ACCRA,etc). • Government led coordination mechanisms: – Disaster Risk Management Technical Working Group (which brings together all actors involved in EWR) – Sectoral Task Forces (led by respective ministries) – Multi-Agency Coordination Group ( at the technical and strategic levels)
Disaster Risk Profiling • A risk assessment study being conducted(building upon existing livelihoods baselines) to implement the new DRM approach • Disaster Risk Profile for every wereda/district in country based on information collected from communities, households and DRM actors • It provides comprehensive information on: hazards and associated risks, vulnerabilities, underlying and associated causes of disaster risks and vulnerabilities, copying capacities, and current and proposed mitigation measures • Aims at informing: – DRR /CCA plans in weredas/districts (manual development, actual planning process at local level, etc.) – Comprehensive contingency plans – The kind of location-specific early warning and response system that need to be in place 9

Thank you for your kind attention!!
