Description
Our experts have developed an Excel tool to assist beneficiaries of small water and wastewater projects in completing a climate resilience assessment proportionate to the project's size. This tool is designed to meet the climate proofing requirements outlined in the Common Provisions Regulation, Article 73, point 2 (j).
The tool performs a simplified qualitative assessment of potential climate threats affecting the project. The analysis and effort are tailored to the scale of small projects. It uses an indicator-based approach to characterize potential climate hazards and risks, which, while simple and subjective, relies on empirical evidence and hence can be applied by non-experts.
However, it does not entail the robustness of a quantitative risk analysis, which evaluates losses on exposed elements using probabilistic metrics.
The tool is specifically intended for small water and wastewater projects and should not be used as a screening tool for larger projects. The definition of small-scale water and wastewater projects are subject to variations based on country-specific context and regulations and should be defined by the National Managing Authorities.The Excel tool includes a recommendation from JASPERS on what could be considered a small-scale project for this type of infrastructure.
Please ensure you read the disclaimer in the first tab of the Excel tool.
