Why is Integration Important?
Necessary for ranking vulnerabilities and adaptations
Impacts do not happen in isolation Impacts in one sector can affect another Some sectors are affected directly and
indirectly Others just indirectly Sometimes a change in one sector can offset
the affect of climate change in another sector

Cross-Sector Integration Link related Sectors
Multi-Sector Economy or System wide

Impacts in One Sector Can Overwhelm Direct Climate Effect
In a recent study, crop yields in California were generally estimated to increase with climate change
In one scenario, a 25% reduction in water supply results in a net loss of $1 billion/year to California agriculture

Regional/National Economic Models
Quantitative way to examine climate change market impacts throughout an economy Problem with non-market impacts
Often macroeconomic models or general equilibrium models
Require a lot of data Can be expensive Can be complex Communication of assumptions can be a
challenge
![Page 11: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

A More “Simple” Approach
Add up results sector by sector Limited by what is known within sectors Problem of how to integrate across multiple
end points
Need to account for a lot of sectors
Does not capture sectoral interactions
![Page 13: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

15
At a Minimum Should at least qualitatively identify linkages
and possible direction of impacts
If only can examine crops, not water supply, then identify how change in water supply could affect agricultural production

Prioritization of Vulnerabilities
It can be quite useful for
Focusing adaptation measures
Monitoring
Adaptation

Process is as Important as Outcome
This is an expression of values, not a purely analytic exercise
Need to include stakeholders and policy makers
The following are tools that can be useful in setting priorities
Whether you use qualitative or quantitative approach, the most important thing is JUST DO IT

metric to determine whether benefits > costs
Monetary values often used
Difficulty: what to do about non-market benefits or uncertainties
Difficulty: requires a lot of data and analysis

UNFCCC Decision 17/CP.8
“. . . non-Annex I Parties should provide information on their vulnerability to the adverse effects of climate change, and on adaptation measures being taken to meet their specific needs and concerns arising from these adverse effects.”
![Page 32: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Communication The National Communication (NC) needs to
clearly communicate vulnerability and adaptation findings
Fine to describe methods and results of analyses But, needs to synthesize and integrate results
The NC needs to clearly communicate Who and what is vulnerable
How that may vary across time and geographic region
What is needed to be done to adapt Where and when
![Page 33: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
First Thing: Remember Purpose Who is the audience for the NC?
What kind of information do they need?
How can it most effectively be presented to them?
![Page 34: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Presenting Vulnerabilities
We’ll cover two things
Clearly presenting results
Presenting who and what is most vulnerable

Conclusions Integration is important to at least identify
related impacts Analysis is desirable because there can be
surprises Integration can also be useful for examining
total vulnerability and ranking vulnerabilities Clear synthesis and reporting of results is
important Analytic methods exist for analyzing and
ranking adaptations

“To a Hammer, Everything Looks Like a Nail”
Methods or models are a means to get an answer
Before addressing the answer, we must consider the question(s) being asked
![Page 46: 1 Vulnerability and Adaptation Assessment Hands-on Training Workshop for the Africa Region - Integration and Communication of V&A Analysis - Maputo, Mozambique](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032723/56649d0d5503460f949e1f90/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
46
These Questions are Key Factors in Determining How to Conduct Your Study
You should not begin with the methods or models you have in hand, but with these questions
Select methods and models that best help you answer the questions
