INGC, MICOA INGC-Library A Concept Paper Developed by UNDP Mozambique with BCPR Funding Legacy of Portuguese colonialism, the 16-year civil war ( ), the recurrent climatic disasters, flood and drought, the increasing impact of HIV/AIDS and other factors linked to governance and management capacities have turned Mozambique into one of the poorest countries in the world despite a relatively high growth rate in recent years: the rural areas are the most affect (about 80% of the population lives there) Mozambique has made the reduction of absolute poverty its first development priority; poverty reduction strategies have become the main development planning instrument and have become a decisive factor in the allocation of national external resources.
68 Siri Eriksen and Julie A. Silva Year 2009 The vulnerability context of a savanna area in Mozambique: household drought coping strategies and responses to economic change English Environmental Science & Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2009, Pages Environmental Science & Policy Journal In this paper, we investigate the ways in which climate stressors and economic changes related to liberalisation alter the local vulnerability context. Household and key informant data from two villages in Mozambique are analysed. First, we explore how changes such as increased market integration, altered systems of agricultural support, land tenure change and privatisation of agro-industries may affect factors important for response capacity, including access to local natural resources, employment opportunities, and household labour and capital. Next, we investigate how people related to the market while coping with the drought. The study reveals that there had been an increase in informal trade and casual employment opportunities; however, market relations were very unfavourable and as the drought intensified, smallholders were locked into activities that barely secured economic survival and which sometimes endangered long-term response capacity. Only a few large-scale farmers had the capital and skills necessary to negotiate a good market position in urban markets, thus securing future incomes. Inequality, social sustainability, vulnerability and natural resource use are all closely linked in the savannas. Hence, both climate-change adaptation policies and sustainability measures need to target vulnerability context and the social and environmental stressors shaping it.

69 Year 2002 Mozambique VAC (National Vulnerability Assessment Committee) & SADC FANR VAC (Vulnerability Assessment Committee) MOZAMBIQUE: Emergency Food Security Assessment Report English Mozambique National Vulnerability Assessment Committee in collaboration with the SADC FANR Vulnerability Assessment Committee FEWS-NET; SETSAN The VAC assessment strategy has two principal axes. First, it uses a sequential process of best practices in assessment and monitoring, drawn from the extensive and varied experience of the VAC partners, to meet a broad range of critical information needs at both the spatial and socioeconomic targeting levels. The sequential nature of the approach not only provides richer details of the "access side" of the food security equation, but it adds the very important temporal dimension as well. From an operational (i.e. response) perspective, the latter is critical. Second, by approaching food security assessment through a coordinated, collaborative process, the strategy integrates the most influential assessment and response players into the ongoing effort, thereby gaining privileged access to national agency-datasets, and expert technicians and increases the likelihood of consensus between national governments, implementing partners, and major donors. This partnering strategy links the major players and stakeholders including regional institutions, national governments, response agencies, NGOs and donors for on going, intensive rolling assessment coverage of food security conditions on the ground. This emergency food needs assessment was conducted for three main purposes, specifically, to: Evaluate key assumptions from the April/May CFSAMs; Update targeting and numbers of beneficiaries in need based on comprehensive national and community level analysis; Provide feedback on the emergency response to date.

(2) To reduce the disaster risk as far as possible for the villages in question along the Rio Búzi (3) Concepts: Presents and illustrates in concrete terms the concept of disaster risk (it comprises the two components of hazard and vulnerability, given the specific context of the local physical-geo-graphical and socio-economic conditions of the project region. Methodology: The study pays particular attention to the methodology and implementation of the concept of DRM and its individual components risk analysis, disaster prevention and mitigation as well as the disaster preparedness or preparation for emergency. The study is oriented towards outlining the achieved impacts; raises the following questions: (1) which activities took place in the context of these three complementary components in Búzi and the neighbouring municipalities? (2) Which participants were involved? What kinds of structures were created, and what are the impacts? A special aspect briefly considered within this framework is the connection between DRM and poverty INGC-Library

This report (20 pages) provides a profile to review key findings of the baseline assessment, covering specifically: food economy zoning; distribution of wealth; sources of food; sources of cash income; and patterns of expenditure Household Food Economy Analysis is a method for assessing food security and understanding rural livelihoods. The method is based upon developing an understanding of the various options people employ to secure access to food. It goes beyond traditional production-based assessments by exploring, in a systematic fashion, the other food sources people rely upon, and the extent to which these can be expanded in times of crisis. Methodology Food Economy Approach: a capacity to compare findings from region to region and from sub-region to sub-region; Food Economy Analysis counters the problem that most so-called qualitative assessments face the problem being that they tend to produce information which may be detailed, but not well-suited to comparative analyses.

Following a flood, there is the potential for transmission of water-borne diseases and for increased levels of endemic illnesses such as vector-borne diseases. Therefore, consideration of the situation of infectious diseases must be addressed when providing relief. The Japan Disaster Relief (JDR) Medical Team was sent to Mozambique where a flood disaster occurred during January to March The team operated in the Hókwe area of Gaza, in the mid-south of Mozambique where damage was the greatest. Methods: Information was collected from medical records by abstracting data at local medical facilities, interviewing in habitants and evacuees, and conducting analyses of water. Conclusions: Both the number of patients and the incidence of endemic infectious diseases, such as malaria and diarrhoea, increased following the flood. Also there was a heightening of risk factors for infectious diseases such as an increase in population, deterioration of physical strength due to the shortage of food and the temporary living conditions for safety purposes, and turbid degeneration of drinking water. These findings support the hypotheses that there exists the potential for the increased transmission of water borne diseases and that there occur increased levels of endemic illnesses during the post-flood period.

Impact of HIV/AIDS on poverty: poverty is manifest in health, education, agriculture and basic infrastructures. Fundamental and structural factors or causes that trigger the spirals of poverty in the afore-mentioned areas and sectors are the quality and low and insufficient quantity of available human resources, the quality of economic, macro-economic and financial management, and the quality of governance. Other powerful factors causing power and considered as structural because of its historical recurrence are natural disasters (drought, floods and cyclones) (pg. 5). Policy Document/ Regulations

113 Melanie Gall Year 2004 Where to Go? Strategic Modelling of Access to Emergency Shelters in Mozambique English Disasters, 2004, 28(1): Journal Disasters This paper, through spatial-analysis techniques, examines the accessibility of emergency shelters for vulnerable populations, and outlines the benefits of an extended and permanently established shelter network in central Mozambique. The raster-based modelling approach considers data on land cover, locations of accommodation centres in 2000, settlements and infrastructure. The shelter analysis is a two-step process determining access for vulnerable communities first, followed by a suitability analysis for additional emergency shelter sites. The results indicate the need for both retrofitting existing infrastructure (schools, health posts) to function as shelters during an emergency, and constructing new facilities at best multipurpose facilities that can serve as social infrastructure and shelter. Besides assessing the current situation in terms of availability and accessibility of emergency shelters, this paper provides an example of evaluating the effectiveness of humanitarian assistance without conventional mechanisms like food tonnage and number of beneficiaries.

114 MICOA Ministério para acoordenação da Acção Ambiental Year 2007 National adaptation programme of action - NAPA Portuguese; English Global Environment Facility (GEF);Mozambique - government; United Nations Development Programme (UNDP); United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) National adaptation programmes of action (NAPA) provide a process for Least Developed Countries (LDCs) to identify priority activities that respond to their urgent and immediate needs to adapt to climate change those for which further delay would increase vulnerability and/or costs at a later stage. The occurrence of extreme climate events in Mozambique constitutes a great barrier to swift sustainable economic development due to human and material damages. This includes the loss of crops due to extreme events, which can occur at least once a year. As a result, the population lives in a situation of threat and instability. The Government of Mozambique (GM), Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs), and Humanitarian Agencies (HA) have been working to reduce the impacts of extreme events through the elaboration of various action plans and programmes. It s in this context that a multi-sector group called NAPA was established with the task of coordinating the elaboration and implementation of an action plan for adaptation to climate change in Mozambique

Em Moçambique, os desastres naturais são uma realidade que todos os anos ameaça milhares de pessoas; estes assumem fundamentalmente a forma de cheias, secas e ciclones. A avaliação das capacidades de gestão de riscos aos desastres naturais permitiu constatar uma passagem gradual de uma abordagem proactiva para uma mais preventiva, alicerçada em actividades de preparação e mitigação, como por exemplo, o estabelecimento de sistemas de informação em segurança alimentar e nutrição, a capacitação das organizações baseadas na comunidade locais em gestão do risco de desastres entre outras. A introdução da redução da vulnerabilidade e a gestão risco dos desastres integrada nos programas de desenvolvimento começam a ganhar maior visibilidade ao nível dos discursos e das agendas, contudo este movimento tem sido mais lento em termos de desenho e implementação das actividades. Factores como a ausência de uma estratégia nacional de gestão de calamidades, predominância de uma cultura de gestão de emergências em detrimento da gestão do risco de desastres, ausência de integração da gestão de desastres naturais nos planos de desenvolvimento sectoriais, falta de recursos humanos, materiais e financeiros, dependência de financiamento externo, fraco envolvimento das organizações não governamentais nacionais, fraca participação das comunidades locais, tendência para privilegiar desastres de grande escala em detrimento de outros tipos, ausência de mecanismos de gestão de risco a nível distrital e local, fraca análise institucional sobre temas transversais como o HIV/SIDA e as questões de género em desastres, dificultam a gestão efectiva do risco de desastres.

All countries have common but differentiated responsibilities according to their social economics conditions. Mozambique ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change on August 24th, 1994 through the Assembly of the Republic and became Party in 25th August By doing so Mozambique joined other Parties of the Convention, in the common objectives of stabilizing the greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere to a level that would impede dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. Such a level should be reached in a period that allows the ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change that, assures that the production of food is not threatened and that allows economic development to continue in a sustainable way.

It is aimed in particular at the participants of the World Conference of Education for Sustainable Development and other stakeholders1 engaged in promoting Education, Sustainable Development and Disaster Risk Reduction at all levels. The paper elucidates how Disaster Risk Reduction supports Education for Sustainable Development or even shows that Disaster Risk Reduction is imperative for Sustainable Development. Disaster Risk Reduction is about preventing disasters caused by natural events, such as earthquakes, floods, landslides, storms or volcanic eruptions. Hazards are part of nature but can turn into disasters as a result of human interactions. Disasters are among the biggest obstacles to achieving the UN s Millennium Development Goals for poverty reduction.

122 USAID-Mozambique Year 3005 Building Capacity for Disaster Preparednes: Mozambique MIND Final Report English, Portuguese USAID-Mozambique USAID-Mozambique In 2000 and 2001, a series of floods and cyclones overwhelmed central and southern Mozambique, revealing serious shortcomings in the nation s disaster preparedness and response systems. To strengthen Mozambique s ability to prevent human losses and economic disruptions from these natural hazards, USAID allocated $4.7 million to the fouryear Mozambique Integrated Information Network for Decision-making (MIND) project. MIND s latest effort to enhance the communication of disaster warning messages is RANET. This innovative global initiative harnesses the power of the Internet and disseminates real-time information to isolated communities via satellite while providing communities with their own local radio station in times when no disaster is looming. MIND also trained journalists to report weather information clearly and in actionable form, whether for decision makers in Maputo or vulnerable villagers living along a river. MIND achieved significant progress only because it managed to rally people around a common goal to form partnerships, identify problems, and work together toward solutions. The Atlas epitomizes this spirit of collaboration, but MIND s other activities also illustrate what can be accomplished when nontraditional partners work together for the common good. E-Library
123 World Bank Year 2010 Economics of Adaptation to Climate Change: Mozambique Country Case Study P [Draft] English World Bank World Bank The most rigorous attempt to date to estimate the global costs of adaptation to climate change is a study undertaken by the World Bank with funding from Denmark, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Britain: the Economics of Adaptation to Climate Change (EACC). Using several climate and macroeconomic models, the study concludes that by 2020, the annual costs of adaptation for developing countries will range from US$ 75 billion to US$ 100 billion per year; of this amount, the average annual costs for Africa would be about US$ 18 billion per year. The study also commissioned seven country case studies with the objective of both ground-truthing the global study and helping decision makers in developing countries understand climate risks and design effective adaptation strategies. Mozambique was one of three African countries selected for the country-track study, along with Ghana and Ethiopia. E-Library

It argues that large-scale impacts on human development and the environment in least developed countries will occur in the second quarter of the century unless there is urgent international financial assistance to help them adapt to climate-related extreme events. The paper examine this question using an empirically derived model of human losses to climate-related extreme events, as an indicator of vulnerability and the need for adaptation assistance. It develops a set of 50-year scenarios for these losses in one country, Mozambique, using high-resolution climate projections, and then extends the results to a sample of 23 least-developed countries.
131 Year 2009 United Nations Development Group (UNDG) Integrating disaster risk reduction into the CCA and UNDAF: a guide for UN country teams English United Nations Development Group (UNDG) United Nations Development Group (UNDG) The guidance lays out a step-by-step approach to assist UN country teams in integrating disaster risk reduction (DRR) in the preparation, formulation and monitoring and evaluation of country analyses (CCA) and the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF). Disaster impacts have persistent, long-term negative effects on poverty and human development that undermine the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). While development has the potential to significantly reduce disaster risk, inappropriate development choices can also exacerbate vulnerabilities and aggravate the negative effects of disasters. Disaster risk reduction aims at addressing the underlying risk factors in order to reduce avoidable loss of life, property and livelihoods. Reducing vulnerabilities, mitigating disaster impacts and improving UN Country Teams' (UNCTs) responses to future disasters correlate strongly with fostering the MDGs and safeguarding development gains p.

Because of the close relationship between disaster and Climate Change the guidance note is also anticipated to be of use when considering climate change adaptation. The purpose of this document is to provide step-by-step advice on how to integrate disaster risk reduction (DRR) into the process of CCA/UNDAF preparation, formulation, and monitoring and evaluation. This guidance note is intended to complement and provide additionality to the United Nations Development Group s (UNDG) Guidelines for UN Country Teams on Preparing a CCA and UNDAF. The document can also be useful to the wider development community by providing helpful insights on integrating DRR into broader development analysis, strategic planning and programming. This guidance note is structured as follows: Introduction provides an overview of the relationship between disasters and development and outlines the key international commitments to DRR; Part 1 describes how DRR relates to the CCA/UNDAF key principles for engagement. Part 2 explains how DRR can be effectively captured in strategic country level analysis for development planning (including in the CCA, if one is undertaken). Part 3 explains how DRR can be incorporated into the preparation of the UNDAF, including reflection on whether DRR should be considered as a crosscutting area, a separate pillar or a combination of the two. Part 4 provides an indication of effective monitoring and evaluation of DRR efforts. The document also considers how DRR relates to the inter-related principles of human rights, gender equality, environmental sustainability and capacity development. E-library

A programme of the National Master Plan for Disaster Risk Management and Reduction. In ISDR and UNDP (2008) Linking Disaster Risk Reduction and Poverty Reduction: Good Practices and Lessons Learned. A Publication of the Global Network of NGOs for Disaster Risk Reduction English ISDR/UNDP ISDR/UNDP Mozambique is one of the poorest countries in the world and one of the most frequently and worst affected by natural hazards. Most of its people depend on subsistence farming that is highly vulnerable to floods, cyclones and droughts. Moreover, poor housing, lack of education, shortage of health services and poor communication and transport facilities make the population particularly vulnerable. In 2000, the heaviest rains in 50 years, combined with four cyclones, led to an unprecedented flood disaster that left some 800 people dead and some 4.5 million affected. This disaster, as well as others in the following years, reinforced the already existing cycle of poverty, and eroded development gains. No warning system was in place, and it is only recently that efforts were made to develop systematic coping mechanisms and strategies. In June 2007, a programme was launched by the country s National Disaster Management Institute (INGC) to help build disaster-resilient communities, as part of its National Master Plan for Disaster Risk Management and Reduction. The programme seeks to reduce community vulnerabilities through mechanisms such as local disaster management committees and local warning and response systems. It is expected that by November 2008, the programme will have supported some community members living in high-risk areas. E-library

As part of such initiatives, the Mozambique Red Cross Society resolved to follow the recommendation given during a UN/ISDR Africa regional training workshop on "DRR and Education" held in Kenya in May 2006 "to impart the knowledge acquired (during the workshop) to primary and secondary school teachers". As a result, Mozambican teachers were trained on DRR issues in June and July 2006, to help them raise awareness among school communities and develop a school handbook on tsunami and other disaster risks and DRR in Mozambique. The training was a good entry point for mainstreaming DRR into school curricula. E-Library

142 Year Stefan Kienberger Assessing The Vulnerability To Natural Hazards On The Provincial/Community Level In Mozambique: The Contribution Of Geoscience And Remote Sensing Unpublished The assessment of vulnerability at the community level is currently strongly evolving. Also participatory methods are seen as the way forward to act successfully at the local/community level. In order to carry out effective measures for risk reduction, information has to be available about the hazards that threaten a certain area, the elements at risk (population, buildings, infrastructure, economic activities) that are exposed to these hazards, the vulnerability of these elements at risk and an estimation on the expected losses. The concept of vulnerability has not been finally defined yet and indicators and agreements on how to measure the unmeasurable are still on its way. Parallel to this, also the field of participatory practices is moving forward and new concepts such as Participatory GIS (PGIS) are emerging. Within this paper the current application fields of PGIS and the use of GIScience and methodologies for Disaster Risk Management are reviewed and summarized. From a general evaluation focusing on available and suitable data and constraints within data distribution experiences will also be drawn from on-site experiences in Búzi, Mozambique where PGIS methods were applied to assess the vulnerability of Communities to hazards (focus on cyclones, floods and droughts; Project PRODER-GTZ (2000-present)). Primary data was gathered through participatory approaches applying techniques of semi-structured interviews, transect walks and community mapping. To integrate the broad and interlinked concept of vulnerability, including social and natural issues from the global to the local, and to successfully address the main objectives of PGIS, to participate, empower and represent indigenous spatial knowledge, a common agreement on objectives, methodologies and a strong legal framework are needed. The relevance of PGIS practices has been evaluated within the Mozambican case study and will be presented in this paper. A certain attention lies on the requirements for developing countries and the role of GIScience from a technological perspective, but also from its data availability and potential to communicate information to involved stakeholders.

143 Year 2009 Anthony G. Patt, Mark Tadross, Patrick Nussbaumer, Kwabena Asante, Marc Metzger, Jose Rafael, Anne Goujon and Geoff Brundrit Estimating least-developed countries vulnerability to climate-related extreme events over the next 50 years English When will least developed countries be most vulnerable to climate change, given the influence of projected socioeconomic development? The question is important, not least because current levels of international assistance to support adaptation lag more than an order of magnitude below what analysts estimate to be needed and scaling up support could take many years. In this paper, we examine this question using an empirically derived model of human losses to climate-related extreme events, as an indicator of vulnerability and the need for adaptation assistance. We develop a set of 50-year scenarios for these losses in one country, Mozambique, using high-resolution climate projections, and then extend the results to a sample of 23 least-developed countries. Our approach takes into account both potential changes in countries exposure to climatic extreme events, and socio-economic development trends that influence countries own adaptive capacities. Our results suggest that the effects of socioeconomic development trends may begin to offset rising climate exposure in the second quarter of the century, and that it is in the period between now and then that vulnerability will rise most quickly. This implies an urgency to the need for international assistance to finance adaptation. E-Library; This article contains supporting information online at /DCSupplemental.
144 Jeremy Ferguson Year 2005 Disaster Risk Management along the Rio Búzi: Case Study on the Background, Concept and Implementation of Disaster Risk Management in the Context of the GTZ-Programme for Rural Development (PRODER) English GTZ - Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit GTZ - Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit The DRM component in the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ) GmbH Programme for Rural Development in Central Mozambique (Programa para o Desenvolvimento Rural PRODER) follows this idea. For the Búzi district, at first a participatory risk analysis was carried out, which identified approximately a third of the district s population as being endangered by the different types of disaster. Subsequently, different measures and activities from the disaster prevention and disaster preparedness components were implemented in order to reduce the vulnerability of the population and where possible the hazard risk as well, especially concerning the risk of floods and cyclones. These measures included the construction of new settlements on higher ground further away from the river, cyclone-resistant construction measures in the rebuilding of the damaged infrastructure, a disaster preparedness simulation and the implementation of early warning systems.

145 GFDRR Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery Year 2009 Disaster Risk Management Programs for Priority Countries (Mozambique) English ISDR and The World Bank ISDR and The World Bank In GFDRR s Track II, Mainstreaming Disaster risk reduction in Development, this lead to a prioritization of operations in 20 core countries, including Mozambique. The countries were selected due to their high vulnerability to natural hazards and low economic resilience to cope with disaster impacts including anticipated climate change and variability. Two thirds of the countries are least developed countries and twelve are highly indebted poor countries. Nine are from Africa and several others are small island states at high risk. A set of priorities has emerged which will drive the GFDRR supported risk reduction agenda for the next three to five Years: Knowledge, advisory, and capacity building on all levels; intensified support for sectoral mainstreaming; Coordination of disaster risk management and climate change adaption agendas; Comprehensive risk assessments.

146 Anne T. Kuriakose, Livia Bizikova, Carina A. Bachofen Year 2009 Assessing Vulnerability and Adaptive Capacity to Climate Risks: Methods for Investigation at Local and National Levels English SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT WORKING PAPERS, Paper No. 116/May 2009 Effective planning for climate change adaptation programming in developing countries requires a finegrained assessment of local vulnerabilities, practices and adaptation options and preferences. While global models can project climate impacts and estimate costs of expected investments, developing country decision-makers also require national assessments that take a bottom-up, pro-poor perspective, integrate across sectors, and reflect local stakeholders experiences and values, in order to determine appropriate climate responses. This paper outlines the methodological approach of the Social Component of the World Bank s Economics of Adaptation to Climate Change study. The Social Component features both village-level investigations of vulnerability and adaptive capacity, and innovative Participatory Scenario Development approaches that lead diverse groups at local and national levels through structured discussions using GIS-based visualization tools to examine tradeoffs and preferences among adaptation activities and implementation mechanisms. This dynamic, multi-sectoral approach allows for real-time analysis, institutional learning and capacity development. The paper presents the research and learning approach of the study and offers emerging findings on policy and institutional questions surrounding adaptation arenas in Bangladesh, Bolivia, Ethiopia, Ghana and Mozambique.

148 World Health Organization Year 2006 Communicable diseases following natural disasters: Risk assessment and priority interventions English WHO/CDS/NTD/DCE/ World Health Organisation: Programme on Disease Control in Humanitarian Emergencies Communicable Diseases Cluster Natural disasters are catastrophic events with atmospheric, geologic and hydrologic origins. They include earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, floods and drought. Natural disasters can have rapid or slow onset, and serious health, social and economic consequences. During the past two decades, natural disasters have killed millions of people, adversely affecting the lives of at least one billion more people and resulting in substantial economic damage (1). Developing countries are disproportionately affected because of their lack of resources, infrastructure and disaster preparedness systems. The potential impact of communicable diseases is often presumed to be very high in the chaos that follows natural disasters. Increases in endemic diseases and the risk of outbreaks, however, are dependent upon many factors that must be systematically evaluated with a comprehensive risk assessment. This allows the prioritization of interventions to reduce the impact of communicable diseases post-disaster. The Communicable Diseases Working Group on Emergencies (CD- WGE) at WHO/HQ has developed this document to describe the communicable disease risks in populations affected by natural disasters. It is hoped that this document, by detailing the priority measures that are necessary to reduce the impact of communicable diseases following natural disasters, will help to protect the health of disaster-affected populations.

150 UNICEF Year 2009 UNICEF Humanitarian Action Mozambique in 2009 (pg ) In: UNICEF Humanitarian Action Report 2009 English UNICEF UNICEF In recent years, Mozambique has made encouraging strides in reducing its crippling poverty levels and is making gradual progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). However, poverty is still widespread and the economy remains highly dependent on foreign aid. Among the greatest challenges facing the country are food insecurity, the HIV/AIDS crisis and high infant and child mortality rates. Production estimates from the Ministry of Agriculture indicate that the production of cereals, pulses and cassava were all higher than the previous year and above the five-year average. Yet, the most recent report of the Vulnerability Assessment Committee (VAC) indicates that in the eight provinces hit by natural disasters in 2008, affected households have inadequate access to food and some are already employing extreme coping mechanisms. According to the VAC s report, 302,664 people are acutely food insecure, with another 242,615 at risk. E-Library
151 United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT) Year 2010 Climate Change assessment for Maputo, Mozambique: A summary. Cities and Climate Change Initiative English UN-HABITAT UN-HABITAT This report comes under the cities and climate change initiative to assess vulnerability to climate change. The aim of the assessments is to provide insights on climate change adaptation and mitigation capacity in cities in developing and least developed countries. The rationale behind this report is to disseminate the early lessons of the cities and climate change initiative. This summary of the Maputo city vulnerability assessment is based on the proposed framework for urban climate risk assessment developed by the fifth Urban Research symposium. Methodology: The climate-risk assessment framework focuses on the way cities are affected by climate change, as opposed to the way they contribute to it, an approach that highlights adaptation rather than mitigation. The framework analyses climate risk from three interconnected perspectives: hazards, vulnerabilities, and adaptive capacities. These perspectives combine physical science with, geographical and socio-economic elements that can be used by municipal authorities to devise and carry out climate change action plans.1 this summary has been re-written to highlight these three perspectives. In Maputo, the preliminary assessment aimed at an overview of climate change issues and challenges in the city. the document highlights current policies and strategies at the national and local levels; on top of this come a general analysis of existing tools and research, on-going and planned activities and initiatives (such as training and capacity- building, mitigation and adaptation projects, etc.) and relevant ongoing information events and networks occurring in Mozambique and in Maputo. The preliminary assessment is based on a review of literature on climate change issues, including data collection and analysis, existing legislation and strategies, scientific papers, recently implemented and planned initiatives and projects, as well as interviews with central and municipal government officials and specialised professionals.

Methodology Multi-sectoral assessment: a cluster survey conducted in November 2002 in selected areas of the six provinces affected by the drought (Maputo, Gaza, Inhambane, Sofala, Manica and Tete); the provinces had HIV/AIDS prevalence above 10% and above 15% of their population and were affected by severe food deficit Within the selected areas of each province, thirty clusters were chosen (and surveyed) at random through systematic sampling, with probability proportional to the size of the population, using the figures of the 1997-census. In each cluster, the enumerators were instructed to select households following a specified methodology, and to apply the questionnaire specifically developed for this survey. Weight for height was used to assess acute malnutrition and according to the acute malnutrition rate, the severity of the nutritional situation in the surveyed population was classified. Food Security assessment: The Food Security assessment was carried in the most vulnerable districts in the central and southern regions of Mozambique from late November to the beginning of December A rapid appraisal was used as the methodology to collect data and for analysis. Formal interviews with key informants namely government officials from agriculture, commerce, disasters, health, including households were also conducted. Purposive observation at field and traditional burns at household level were part of the assessment and were taken in consideration. This report contains recommendations, according to the findings of the study. E-library

165 Part B: The Data Catalogue Inventory of key organizations and institutions related to risk assessment 6 Inventory of Methodologies, Tools and Guidelines Methods are very much related to concepts. The methodology design is very much affected by the way a particular issue is conceptualised. Risk is conceptualised in a varied manner consequently the methods designed to estimate risk varies notably. For this report, reference conceptualisation of risk is that of the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) Terminology on DRR (2009). Risk is defined as the potential disaster losses, in lives, health status, livelihoods, assets and services, which could occur to a particular community or a society over some specified future time period (UNISDR, 2009a; UNISDR 2009b). The focus on human actions, behaviour, decisions, and values leading to vulnerabilities which cause disasters, with the potential implication that disasters are never natural, is now embedded in the disaster literature. The argument is that natural disasters do not exist because all disasters require human input. Nature sometimes provides input through a normal and necessary environmental event, such as a flood or volcanic eruption, but human decisions have put people and property in harm s way without adequate measures to deal with the environment. The conclusion is that those human decisions are the root causes of disasters, not the environmental phenomena (Kelman, 2010). Thus, regional variations in risk are to be explained by human factors, phenomena and processes. This report also ascertains that risk assessment is a step in DRM: it is the evaluation of the probabilities of alternative consequences, i.e., potential losses, of different management actions within the geographic area that is subjected to extreme natural events. The evaluation can be quantitative or qualitative. Under the SIERA, the inventories found that in Mozambique risk assessment has been generally attempted, based on GIS-assisted map combinations of remotely sensed environmental data with socioeconomic features and population data. Modelling (geological, hydrological, atmospheric, and oceanographic) has been playing a major role as well. These methods and tools have been implemented within the context of the existing early warning and monitoring systems. The results are products (reports, maps, models) of great value for disaster preparedness and emergency response. Products of specific risk assessment are to inform to policy and decision-making about alternative consequences, of different management actions and recommend measures to reduce risk. Thus, risk assessment in Mozambique remains in need of precise coverage and ample implementation. Early Warning and Monitoring have been more regularly practiced (Table 1), however, Mozambique does not have a standardized Risk Assessment Methodology that complies in accordance with the latest international best practices for major hazards (drought, floods, landslides, windstorms and earthquakes).

They vary over time: if needs prior a disaster (i.e., risk to disaster) are not met, they increase during the disaster, and more in quantity and nature (diversification), and even more after the disaster (recovering phase). They also vary in terms of type and from one end user to another. The end users of information for disaster risk management are institutions (disaster management institutions, development planning and communities/ individuals). Institutions and communities/ individuals have to make decisions, at their respecetive level and context. The inventory of information needs and requirements comprises distinct end users.
