CLIMATE RISK VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT MAPS
CLIMATE RISK VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT MAPS
The Climate Risk Vulnerability Assessment (CRVA) Maps are decision-support tools prepared by analyzing three main indices, which include exposure to hazards (exposure to significant climate variations), sensitivity (climate suitability of crops), and adaptive capacity. It is created to generate information for DA to support resilience-building initiatives, and therefore result in better and longer-term geographic targeting.
Completed CRVA Maps in the Philippines
There are already 58 Provinces with completed municipal-level CRVA Maps. The CRVA can provide an added layer of analysis and critical information to LGU planning such as in the Philippine Commodity Investment Plan, particularly in the areas of hazard, adaptive capacity, and climate suitability.
Supplementary Tools
The following are tools that can complement the adoption of CRVA data in planning for resiliency-building initiatives and disaster risk reduction programs for the agriculture sector.
Highlight the potential of CRA practices for climate change adaptation and mitigation and present the economic feasibility of adopting CRA
Highlight the potential of CRA practices for climate change adaptation and mitigation and outline the benefits of adopting CRA practices over conventional non-CRA measures. Technical Briefs present information on:
