8 FIRST ORDER PDNA OBJECTIVES PDNA compiles holistic impact PDNA identifies needs for recovery and reconstruction It integrates disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation in future growth strategies through the Recovery Framework Serves as a crucial basis for leveraging domestic and external post disaster reconstruction development finance

9 PDNA: LEVERAGING POST DISASTER DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE YEMEN USD million (including Govt and Pvt Sector) INDONESIA (WEST SUMATRA) USD 145 million Lao PDR Additional IDA USD 13 million BHUTAN additional IDA USD 10 million SAMOA additional IDA USD 40 million CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC additional IDA USD 10 million. MADAGASCAR additional IDA USD 12.8 million BANGLADESH USD 109 million, coupled with GFDRR grants of USD 3.2 million. HAITI USD 9.9 billion PAKISTAN USD 4 billion (WB USD 1 b; ADB USD 2 b; Japan USD 600 m; US USD 400 m)

10 SECOND ORDER PDNA OBJECTIVES Pre disaster: Consolidate and expand partnerships with regional banks and organizations Scale up in country as well regional and global capacity development for assessments Streamline the mobilization of experts through shared rosters Establish protocols of cooperation Further refine the PDNA methodology Develop shared best practice and guidance notes, lessons learned Post disaster: Integrate development strategy and recovery and reconstruction financing Post disaster Engagement to strengthen preparedness and response Measure the impact of PDNA on prioritization and financing of programs and projects with respect to disaster risk management Monitor the recovery process social impact, economic impact, risk and vulnerability impact

11 COLLABORATIVE SPATIAL ASSESSMENT The utilization of Remote Sensing and GIS to provide situational awareness and objectively measure the damages Labs

12 HAITI 2010 Labs Generate a preliminary assessment of damage for Haiti using satellite and aerial photography to inform the PDNA process and provide base data for reconstruction efforts.
