Programmet strävar efter att minska effekterna av klimatförändringar i Bangladesh. IPCC(International Panel on Climate Change) rankar Bangladesh som det sjätte mest utsatta landet i världen för klimatförändringar och det land som är mest utsatt för höjningen av havsnivån (undantaget små ö-riken). Förändringar av nederbörden förväntas leda till både fler och svårare översvämningar samt till perioder av torka i vissa områden. Inträngning av havsvatten samt fler och kraftigare cykloner ökar risken för förhöjd saltkoncentration i mark, floder och grundvattnet. Bangladesh regering uppskattar att de fem största naturkatastroferna sen 1998 har minskat BNP med 15%. Återkommande katastrofer har störst påverkar på den fattigaste delen av befolkningen och bidrar till en i vissa områden cementerad fattigdomsproblematik. Bangladesh har varit ett föregångsland när det gällde att ta fram strategiska planer för att möta klimathotet (ex. National Adaptation Plan of Action - NAPA och Bangladesh Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan - BCCSAP) och att utveckla en nationell finansieringsmekanism för klimatanpassning (Bangladesh Climate Change Trust Fund - BCCTF) men trots att lokala initiativ för klimatanpassning identifieras som ett prioriterat område i både BCCSAP och NAPA så har endast en liten del av öronmärkta resursers implementerats av lokala myndigheter. Lokala klimatanpassningsprojekt som genomförs med en förankring hos befolkningen kan med relativt små medel minska utsattheten hos sårbara delar av befolkningen och medför ofta mindre risker än storskaliga infrastruktursatsningar. UNDP och UNCDF har gemensamt utvecklat programmet (LoGIC) som avser att stärka lokala myndigheters kapacitet att integrera klimatanpassning i lokala utvecklingsplaner, förbättra nationella mekanismer för lokal klimatfinansiering och implementera klimatanpassningsåtgärder som har identifierats i samråd mellan lokala myndigheter och lokalbefolkningen. Civilsamhällets har en viktig funktion när det kommer till att mobilisera lokalbefolkningen och verka för transparens och ansvarsutkrävande gentemot lokal myndigheter och har därför en tydlig roll i programmet. Programmet pågår under 48 månader och har en budget på c:a USD 20 milj., Sidas bidrag uppgår till 85 milj. kr vilket motsvarar ungefär hälften av programbudgeten och EU har redan beslutat om ett stöd på € 8 miljoner. Programmet är fullfinansierat men möjligheten finns att skala upp programmet om ytterligare givare skulle ansluta. Programmets övergripande mål är att stärka finansieringsmekanismer och planeringsprocesser för att möjliggöra implementering av klimatfinansiering av lokala myndigheter som förväntas att bidra till fattigdomsbekämpning och minskad utsatthet hos den fattigare delen av befolkningen. C:a 60% av budget avser bidrag till lokala myndigheter och bidrag direkt till utsatta hushåll för genomförandet av resilienshöjande åtgärder. Bidragsdelen uppskattas gynna 200 000 utsatt hushåll i 72 Union Parishad, i 7 Distrikt, som har bedömts vara mycket utsatta för klimatförändringar och ha en stor fattigdomsproblematik. Division of Local Government (LGD) under Ministry of Local Government, Rural Development and Cooperatives kommer att ha det övergripande ansvaret för genomförandet av programmet enligt en etablerad samarbetsform mellan UNDP och Bangladsh regering. En styrgrupp för projektet kommer att tillsättas med deltagare från Ministry of Planning, Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief, finansministeriet, miljöministeriet, och andra berörda departement. Strygruppenkommer att ansvara för övergirpande syryning av programmet och godkänna projektplaner. UNDP och UNCDF kommer tillsammans hantera en Project Management Unit bestående av nationell och internationell personal för att stödja LGD i genomförandet av programmet under ledning av en National Project Director.

Results of Local Government Initiative on Climate Change (LoGIC) This Annual Results covers the period 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021. This was the first year of Local Government Initiative on Climate Change (LoGIC) projects two-year extension period. Twenty-one was a year focused on strengthening the projects climate change narrative and core processes toward a sustainable graduation model, ensuring lasting climate resilience of the project communities. To this end, LoGIC pursued the following activities: Conducted a climate risk assessment through a blend of bottom-up and top-down approaches. Reached the most climate vulnerable households with standard grant packages and comparatively less climate vulnerable people with capacity building support. Scaled-up the most viable climate resilient livelihood options and gave access to the formal credit market. Engaged the private sector and co-designed business models for scalable and commercially viable climate resilient livelihoods. Engaged climate vulnerable youth in project activities, including social auditing and adaptation enterprises. Promoted nature-based solutions. LoGICs commitment to strengthening its climate change narrative was reflected in the inclusion in the Community Resilience Fund (CRF) scheme of an additional 18,000 households, 100% headed by women, from the 72 most climate-vulnerable wards. Since the project inception, a total of US$ 9.72 million has been disbursed to 35,000 households as financial support. An additional 10,000 non-grant recipient households are undergoing the selection process. Furthermore, the CRF grant recipients received skills and knowledge training on climate adaptive livelihood options (CALOs), including diversification of existing agricultural knowledge, as well as scientific methods to rear livestock and adapted pisciculture. All beneficiaries are now implementing at least one CALO, and 74% of beneficiaries have gained positive economic benefits. Additionally, the project supported the CRF grant recipients to form cooperatives with legal, organizational structures which are enabling beneficiaries to deposit periodic savings a practice that 82% of grant recipients are already implementing. The financial security gained through these initiatives will ensure that vulnerable households are cushioned against shocks and disasters. In the FY 2020-2021, a total of 200 PBCRG funded climate change adaptation (CCA) schemes were undertaken in the Union Parishads (UPs). These schemes include, amongst others, initiatives relating to agriculture, health, water and sanitation, and adaptive infrastructure. To date, LoGIC has disbursed a total of US$ 7.91 million to UPs as Performance-Based Climate Resilience Grants (PBCRGs) to implement 653 community level schemes to build climate resilience. A significant outcome of the project in 2021 was the integration and streamlining of CCA schemes in the UPs. The 72 UPs planned a total of 863 CCA schemes, out of which only a total of 200 schemes were funded by LoGICs PBCRG. This indicates that local governments are more aware of and educated on issues relating to climate change and further underscores LoGICs success in achieving long-term local ownership of climate adaptation and resilience measures. LoGIC has identified Bangladesh's youth as key drivers for climate resilience and climate action, and as a result, the project developed a youth strategy to enhance youth engagement in CCA schemes in the working areas. LoGIC has completed the mapping and identified 8,872 youths from climate-vulnerable communities and project beneficiaries families to engage them in project activities and ensure intergenerational change for climate resilience and adaptation for the sustainability of overall efforts beyond the project period. In this year alone, 219 youth groups have been launched across seven districts. Through capacity building and education training, the identified youth will be empowered to become active changemakers at the grassroots level. In 2021, the project also engaged an expert to prepare a Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI) for nationwide data mapping up to the LGI level (Union, Municipality, City Corporation). The CVI can in turn assist the Government in allocating its development grants to the most climate vulnerable areas of Bangladesh as part of its ongoing adaptation efforts. This will strengthen the capacity of vulnerable people and local stakeholders for accountable planning and financing of climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction measures and enhance the access of local governments and households to climate financing. LoGIC through a policy dialogue has also initiated an interministarial committee to advance the development and implementation of the Index. During the reporting period, LoGIC has established two new partnerships: (1) with BRAC, which aims to ensure capacity building on CALOs for CRF beneficiaries and create linkages with the private sector for identifying scalable business opportunities; and with the Bangladesh University of Engineering Technology (BUET) and Center for Natural Resources Studies (CNRS) in order to design and implement PBCRG schemes to promote nature-based solutions for climate change induced hazards. Overall, the delivery results in 2021 demonstrate high performance towards LoGICs intended results, despite the challenges posed to the project by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which lasted for much of the reporting period. LoGIC beneficiaries found themselves not only affected by climatic disasters such as Cyclone Yaas, but also by the unprecedented global health crisis that caused severe socio-economic impacts and forced many into even deeper levels of poverty. The pandemic, more acutely than ever before, highlighted the need for increasing communities resilience to shocks and disasters and underscored the vital importance of LoGICs work in light of increasingly frequent climatic disasters. Despite the challenges, including an initial delay in the start of the projects activities, LoGIC has successfully established itself as an effective climate finance mechanism for the communities and LGIs, with lower transaction costs and higher adaptation benefits. The projects exemplary contributions to climate change adaptation in Bangladesh were recognized in the Governments Mujib Climate Prosperity Plan 2030 that was presented at COP26. This acknowledgement at the largest international climate conference of the year marked a significant milestone for LoGIC. In relation to the agendas discussed at COP26, LoGIC has established itself as a sustainable model for strengthening CCA actions, thereby translating the international goals and pledges into actions at local levels. As LoGIC is entering the final year of its extension phase, the project is committed to fully optimising its core processes and making further processes towards its end goal of transforming the project into a mainstreamed mechanism implemented nationwide at the local level, building resilience of the most climate-vulnerable communities of Bangladesh. Key Key Achievements: 1. USD 9.72 million was disbursed to 35,000 CRF beneficiaries (since inception) to increase their climate resilience. 2. USD 7.91 million was disbursed to 72 UPs as PBCRG to implement 653 community level CCA schemes (since inception). 3. 35,000 CRF beneficiaries are (99% women) ensuring equitable solutions for CCA. 4. 18,000 new hard-to-reach beneficiaries (100% women) were selected, 74 new vulnerable wards were chosen from 55 UPs based on field demand, climate science data and secondary sources. 5. CALO training was provided to 6,000 new CRF beneficiaries, increasing their resilience against climate-induced income shocks. 6. 100% of new CRF beneficiaries have opened individual bank accounts, increasing their financial inclusion. 7. 200 CCA schemes implemented through PBCRG support, benefitting 331,595 people (55% women) CCA has been streamlined in all 72 UPs, which planned 863 CCA schemes (only 200 PBCRG supported), an increase in awareness among LGIs. 8. 80% of CRF beneficiaries have completed two types of CALO and 100% have finished at least one type. 9. 74% of beneficiaries have gained positive income benefits 9. 74% of beneficiaries have gained positive income benefits 10. 54% of the beneficiaries have started savings in groups and depositing their money to their group accounts. 11. 24 UPs updated their Risk Reduction Action Plans (RRAP) which were also integrated into their 5-Year Plans. 12. Risk Atlas was developed to identify, quantify and analyse natural hazards, exposures and vulnerabilities at Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI) was developed to strengthen CCA planning and financing at the LGI level. 13. 225 new youth groups formed across 7 districts to engage youth in CCA actions, ensuring intergenerational change. 14. 143 youths trained to become sheep insurance agents and 144 to become sheep service providers. 15. Recognized in Bangladesh Mujib Climate Prosperity Plan 2030 presented at COP26 for its exemplary contributions to CCA. The contribution is adaptive to community needs and field situations, which is proved to be a strength of LoGIC. Financial report
