PERÚ SE ADAPTA AL CAMBIO CLIMÁTICO: PLAN NACIONAL DE ADAPTACIÓN
Summary
The document details a workshop focused on transitioning Peru's National Adaptation Plan (NAP) from formulation to implementation. It identifies five priority sectors—water, agriculture, fisheries and aquaculture, forests, and health—and outlines the necessary institutional reforms, such as strengthening the National Water Authority (ANA) and integrating adaptation goals into sectoral planning instruments. The report emphasizes the need for a robust monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system, likely led by the Ministry of the Environment (MINAM), and maps out support from international cooperation agencies like GIZ, USAID, and the IDB.
Key insights
- The workshop identified five primary sectors for NAP implementation: water, agriculture, fisheries and aquaculture, forests, and health. Specific priorities include water source conservation, climate-smart land use planning, sustainable fishing to ensure food security, forest fire prevention, and universal health coverage with a focus on emerging diseases.
- Effective implementation requires specific institutional adjustments across sectors. For the water sector, this includes granting autonomy to the National Water Authority (ANA). In the forestry sector, it involves intersectoral agreements for conditional transfers involving the Ministry of the Environment, Ministry of Culture, and Ministry of Economy and Finance.
- To ensure the NAP is integrated into government operations, the report suggests aligning adaptation goals with sectoral planning instruments such as the Multiannual Sectoral Strategic Plan (PESEM) and the Institutional Strategic Plan (PEI), as well as creating a high-level group within the Council of Ministers.
- There is a consensus that the Ministry of the Environment (MINAM) should lead the National Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) system, acting as a consumer of information produced by sectoral M&E units. The system should leverage existing platforms like Infocarbono and be supported by a dedicated budget to ensure sustainability.
- International cooperation agencies have identified specific areas of support for Peru's NAP: GIZ focuses on financial instruments and risk transfers in Piura, Cusco, Lambayeque, and Puno; USAID focuses on green bonds and low-carbon strategies; and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) focuses on fisheries, marine current monitoring, and forest programs in Madre de Dios, San Martin, and Ucayali.
- A significant gap was identified in the capacity of public actors to manage M&E processes and develop projects eligible for international climate finance. Participants emphasized the need for training in monitoring instruments and the use of Infocarbono data.
