Application of Performance Indicators in
Monitoring Capacity Building for Adaptation to
Climate Change in the Eleven (11) Desert Prone
Frontline States of Northern Nigeria
Special Climate Change Unit
Federal Ministry of Environment, Abuja Nigeria

About Us
  • National Focal Point for climate change
  • DNA for CDM
  • broad mandate undertakes national implementation
    of the UNFCCC, the Kyoto Protocol and any other
    instrument put in place on climate change issue.

3
National Capacity Building Activities
  • Preparation of National Communication
  • Preparation of NAPA (on voluntary bases)
  • National climate change programmes awareness
    creation, technology needs assessment, CDM
    implementation etc

4
Capacity Building cont.
  • E-Newsletter on climate change
  • Website design for climate change
  • Training on negotiation skills
  • Launched the CDM procedural guidelines
  • Project on building Nigerias Response to Climate
    Change (BNRCC),
  • websitewww.nigeriaclimatechange.org

5
Capacity Building for Implementation of
Adaptation Measures
  • The Eleven (11)desert prone front line states in
    Nigeria are facing precarious situation due to
    impacts of climate change.
  • Recognizing the need to build the capacity of
    policy makers and Non-governmental Organizations
    (NGOs) in tackling climate change adaptation, a
    three days National Workshop for the policy
    makers was organised

6
Capacity Building
  • The workshop is part of the activities under a
    Three year National Awareness Programme on
    climate change
  • Workshop targeted specifically States
    Commissioners of Environment, Permanent
    Secretaries, Director Generals of Environmental
    Protection Agencies, Directors and
    representatives of NGOs from the eleven states.

7
Objective of the Workshop
  • To facilitate formulation of good environmental
    policy and integrate climate change adaptation
    issues into the eleven front line states
    sustainable development action plan
  • To assess and respond to vulnerability of sectors
    in light of predicted climate change impacts
  • Build capacity to replicate workshops in
    respective states within the zone to response to
    climate change.

Using Indicators for Performance Monitoring
  • Performance indicators are designed to provide
    comprehensive monitoring and evaluation of
    projects or programmes establishing output and
    outcomes, both quantitatively and qualitatively
  • Expected output To build informed responses to
    climate change in the eleven desert prone states
    by enhancing capacity at the community and state
    levels to implement effective adaptation
    strategies, policies and actions

11
Performance Indicators
  • The following parameters at respective states
    were accessed and evaluated
  • i. Legal Framework
  • ii. Governance structure
  • iii. Capacity and manpower development

12
  • 2. Expected Outputs
  • Knowledge and tools for analysis of climate
    change vulnerabilities and impacts on women, key
    sectors and eco-regional zones including
    scenarios on climate change impacts for planning
  • Practical experience about community-based
    adaptation responses to climate change by
    vulnerable populations in key sectors and
    eco-regional zones
  • Tools for action on climate change adaptation
    including tools and mechanisms to integrate and
    strengthen the role of women in climate change
    adaptation.

13
  • 3 Outcome
  • Increased integration of gender sensitive
    climate change adaptation into states sustainable
    development strategies
  • Increased capacity of the states governments and
    civil society to take informed action on climate
    change.

14
Conclusion
  • Huge need for capacity development to effectively
    and efficiently response to climate change
  • Long term training essential
  • GEF funding for an enabling activity to scope
    needs, support establishment of governance
    structure
  • Bilateral partnership to develop and implement CB
    initiatives through outreach, awareness,
    education and training
