launch
Background: The People’s Survival Fund
• Funds climate change adaptation projects
based on the National Framework Strategy
• A special fund of at least Php 1 Billion
allotted annually sourced from GAA.
• Can be augmented by donations,
endowments, grants and contribution.
• May be increased subject to the review of the
Office of the President and Department of
Budget and Management
Status
• 42 proposals received; responding to queries; pre-
assessment; follow-up proponents regarding
completion of requirements
- Coordination with TWG member agencies (DFO,
DBM, NEDA, DILG, PCW, business, academe):
Technical working group on disbursement to CSOs
and risk transfer mechanisms
• Secretariat TEC and Commissioners
• Two for the PSF Board
NCCAP Priority Areas
• Food security
• Water sufficiency
• Ecological and
environmental
stability
• Human security
• Climate-friendly
industries & services
• Sustainable energy
• Knowledge & capacity
development
Adaptation
“the adjustment in natural or human
systems in response to actual or expected
climatic stimuli or their effects, which
moderates, harms or exploits beneficial
opportunities.”
What Programs/ Projects/ Activities can
be funded by PSF?
1. Adaptation activities in
the areas of water and
land resources
management,
agriculture and fisheries, health,
infrastructure development,
and natural ecosystems
2. Forecasting and early warning systems as part
of preparedness for climate-related hazards;
What Programs/ Projects/ Activities can
be funded by PSF?
3.Institutional
development, for
local government units and
organizations, for climate
change preventive
measures, planning, preparedness and
management;
4. Monitoring, controlling and preventing vector-
borne diseases triggered by climate change;
What Programs/ Projects/ Activities can
be funded by PSF?
5. Establishment or
strengthening regional
centers and
information
networks supporting
climate change
adaptation efforts;
6. Serve as a guarantee for risk insurance
needs for farmers, agricultural
workers and other stakeholders;
7. Others.
GUIDING PRINCIPLES IN
ACCESSING THE FUND
• Projects should be adaptation-focused and consistent
with the thematic areas of the NCCAP (LCCAP, PDP,
CCA - DRR enhanced development plans)
• It is suppletory to any annual appropriations allocated
by relevant government agencies for climate change-
related programs and projects by LGUs.
• It encourages counterpart funding amounting to 10% of
the total project cost (financial or in-kind)
• Other stakeholders, private, NGAs or
academe who wish to apply, may be
implementing partner of any proposal
as proposed by the LGUs / LCOs.
• Partnerships among various cities,
municipalities or provinces are
encouraged to apply as ONE proponent
for ecosystem approach proposals.
15
EligibilityCriteria for
LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS
• Exposure to climate risks (30%). Updated Philippine Development Plan (2011-2016), enhanced PDPFP & CCA/DRR CLUP
• Poverty Incidence (40%). PSA (NSCB) definition of clustering
• Provinces with key biodiversity areas (30%). Sites that are critical for the conservation of globally important biodiversity (DENR, 2006)

Key Points
• PSF can be used strategically for climate-
resilient development
• It is essential to understand your
locality’s vulnerability to extreme
weather and variable climate.
• Proponents are encouraged to partner
with local/regional organizations &
experts.
Important considerations
• Sustainability: counterpart contribution
(financial or in-kind) at least of 10% of
total project cost
• Community participation in project
identification, M&E process
• M&E – impact, efficiency, effectiveness
and sustainability
Project/Program Costs:
Amounts requested • P2.4 Billion (ave.: P67 M)

Project background and
rationale • Project background and rationale
– Project location/area
– Relevant climate change scenarios
– Climate change challenges faced
– Contribution to climate resilience
– Economic, social and environmental
benefits
• Climate Scenarios / Climate
Projections should be the basis of the
projects.
• Climate Proofing or Climate Designs
should be integrated.
• Therefore, there is an additional
cost to the project leaving the
business - as - usual design.

CLIMATE CHANGE
49
Climate Change means a change of climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods.
- UNFCC 1992
CLIMATE CHANGE
VULNERABILITY V = f ( S sensitivity , E exposure, AC adaptive capacity)
50
exposure Things that can be affected by climate change (populations, resources, property, and so on)
The change in climate itself (sea level rise, precipitation and temperature changes, and so on)
sensitivity Sensitivity is basically the biophysical effect of climate change; but sensitivity can be altered by socio-economic
changes. For example, new crop varieties could be either more or less sensitive to climate change.
adaptive capacity adaptive capacity is the capability of a system to adapt to impacts of climate change.

Ultimate Goal:
Build the adaptive capacities of
women and men in their
communities, increase the
resilience of vulnerable sectors
and ecosystems to climate
change, and optimize mitigation
opportunities towards gender-
responsive and rights-based
sustainable development
