Executive summary of the action Sample Clauses

Executive summary of the action. Flooding has had significant economic and social impact in the Trinidad and Tobago; for example, damage and losses from flood events in 1993, 2002 and 2006 were US$580,000, US$3,300,000 and US$2,500,000, respectively. The 10th meeting of the Joint Select Committee on Land and Physical Infrastructure indicated that there is need for (i) closer collaborations amongst entities responsible for flood alleviation and control of major river basins, (ii) spatial data to undertake flood mapping and risk analysis to support decision making and (iii) more public education and the building of resilience in the communities themselves to prepare, respond and adapt to floods. Also, the WRA manages a rainfall monitoring system which comprises rainfall and river monitoring stations; the key challenge is that the flood monitoring network consists of a mixture of aged, manually operated instruments and outdated telemetric components. The issue with flooding is compounded by the fact that the official hurricane season coincides with the country’s rainy season. The specific objective is to strengthen community and national capacities for generating impact-based flood early warnings and effectively planning and executing anticipatory actions. There are 7 communities targeted by this action, 2 are from Tobago and 5 are from Trinidad. Majority of these communities are in areas very highly or highly susceptibility to flooding and are among the poorest. The action will target four result areas (i) enhance capacities for detecting, monitoring, analysis and forecasting of flood hazards in fifteen communities – three in Tobago and twelve in Trinidad; (ii) expand the flood early warning information communication/ dissemination platform to reach more communities, municipalities and governmental agencies; and (iii) enhance capabilities for the coordination and management of floods at the community and national levels and (iv) improve emergency response (crisis modifier)

Executive summary of the action. This Action will support the light repair of war-damaged school facilities and equipment. The Government of Ukraine has completed a Damage Needs Assessment (DNA) and has shared a priority list of damaged schools from 13 municipalities (including Zhytomyr, Transcarpathian, Zakarpattia, Kirovograd, Mykolaiv, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Ternopil, Cherkasy, and Chernihiv) (See Annex 1 – Map of Project Locations). Allocation round 5 of the HIP for Ukraine allocates support to physical rehabilitation schools through light and medium repairs. UNDP selected a list of school from the “Ukraine Fast Recovery Plan (to be amended according to plan amendments by UA Gov.) – Schools” with damage rate equal to or below 60% located in areas where UNDP have already a presence on the ground and ongoing activities. The targeted schools are spread over nine municipalities: ZHYTOMYRSKA, ZAKARPATTIA, KIROVOHRADSKA, MYKOLAIVSKA, ODESSA, POLTAVA, RIVNE, TERNOPIL, and CHERKAS. LSiYgh, t and medium damage repairs include windows, roofs, sanitary facilities, classroom equipment, canteens, insulation, solar panels, bomb shelters, sirens, and heating system repairs (as per DG ECHO instructions). Due to inconsistencies in the data received, UNDP will conduct and document an in depth assessments to determine the exact rehabilitation needs. As part of this process, UNDP will develop the required technical designs for the repair work, which will serve as the basis for launching the competitive procurement process. The next step will be to obtain construction permits from the respective municipalities before any work begins. An expedited procurement process, dividing the work into lots, will identify a group of companies to undertake the work for the facilities. Before handing over the repaired and retrofitted schools to the respective authorities, a testing and commissioning process will be conducted to ensure the quality of works done.
Executive summary of the action. The Action, implemented by a UNDP-led consortium with UNICEF and UN WOMEN, will be fully led by municipal and provincial governments who will own and sustain the efforts including by allocating resources. Nepal Red Cross Society is intended as a strategic implementing partner on specific activities. Impending major earthquake/s in Western Nepal portended by various scientific research imbues an urgency for immediate preparedness, particularly as field assessments indicate lack of realization of earthquake risk and potential impacts, and nonexistent or poor preparedness at community, municipal and provincial levels. With a nascent governance structure inexperienced in a major disaster, potential for uncoordinated response is high in a crisis, due to scant resources, services and infrastructure. This proposal responds to HIP-2021 call for both Earthquake Preparedness in Western Nepal and Urban Preparedness, recognising their interconnectedness and geography (Annex 1.4- Thematic Interdependence). The Action targets provincial and local governments from Sudur Paschim, Karnali and Lumbini provinces with major focus on earthquake preparedness and core urban areas of 3 at-risk cities-namely Dhangadi, Amargadi and Jay Prithvi from Sudur Paschim and Nepalgunj from Lumbini being focus of both earthquake and urban preparedness, while focus at Xxx Xxxxxxx will be exclusively on earthquake (and fire) preparedness. The Action aims to: enhance municipal preparedness for urban and earthquake risks; and at provincial levels on impending earthquake risks benefiting entire provincial populations through improved preparedness for effective disaster response. Action will strengthen understanding of risk, preparedness measures and improved coordination among state and non-state stakeholders, clusters/humanitarian actors including private sectors across the provinces and municipalities, also engaging at-risk communities.

  • Project Summary The main objective of the LIFE GAIA Sense project is to demonstrate gaiasense, an innovative “Smart Farming” (SF) solution that aims at reducing the consumption of natural resources, as a way to protect the environment and support Circular Economy (CE) models. More specifically, this project will launch 18 demonstrators across Greece, Spain and Portugal covering 9 crops (olives, peaches, cotton, pistachio, potatoes, table tomatoes, industrial tomatoes, grapes, kiwi) in various terrain and microclimatic conditions. They will demonstrate an innovative method, based on high-end technology, which is suitable for being replicated and will be accessible and affordable to Farmers either as individuals or collectively through Agricultural Cooperatives. Moreover, LIFE GAIA Sense aims to promote resource efficiency practices in SMEs of the agricultural sector and eventually, contribute to the implementation of the Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe. This project will demonstrate a method on how the farmer will be able to decide either to use or avoid inputs (irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides etc.) in a most efficient way, without risking the annual production. The focus is on the resource consumption reduction side of CE, and the results will be both qualitatively and quantitatively, considering the resources’ efficiency in agricultural sector.
