Key Components
Algeria – Ministry of Agriculture & Rural Development/DGF
Purpose: Handling forest fire climate risks through proactive
mitigation measures and preparedness plans.
Recommended by:
The Algerian National Climate Plan (validation in 2013).
The National Adaptation to CC Action Plan (PNA-ACC, 2003)
- direct impacts on forest resources caused to forest fires
- indirect impacts: reduction in the contribution of the forest
to the economic activities of rural people using forest
resources
Component 1: start a dialogue with all institutions involved
Component 2: coordinate with the partners the
elaboration of study
Component 3: Carry out a technical approval process with
the Institutions involved in the forest fires management.

gradual and unpredictable emergence of extreme
weather/water (floods, ..)
Degree of priority
Topography of Lebanon is rugged that provides devastating
effects
Costs of impacts in rural areas: the poorest farmers who are poorly resilient to
(including most the hazards of climate
affected groups) in urban areas: people in poor neighborhoods
Component 1: start a dialogue with all institutions as well as
stakeholders
Component 2: Coordinate with the partners the elaboration

A Recommendation of the national strategy for adaptation
of agriculture and ecosystems to CC
Degree of priority
A pilot initiative has shown that weather information brings
a significant added value in farming (water, pesticide, .)
- increased evapotranspiration inducing an increase in
water needs
Most signifiant - overexploitation of groundwater increasing the cost of
consequences
pumping charged to the farmer
- New weather conditions favorable to the emergence of
diseases
The purpose is to provide climatological information to
farmers, thereby increasing their resilience to CC by:
Definition of the
Using groundwater resources in an effective manner
adaptation
Managing the pesticide treatments in a rational manner
measure/inputs
Better field works planning and protection of the
production.
20. Component 1: Establish a thorough dialogue with farmers,
Component 2: Mobilize the expertise and support to accompany
Key
farmers
Components
Component 3: Develop a socio-economic study
Component 4: A communication strategy
Farmers, and farmer’s organizations
Key partners Local policy makers & Agriculture local Division
National Meteorological Institute (INM)
A socio-economic study showing that:
The groundwater resources (scarce resource) are used more
efficiently
Deliverables
Electric power for pumping is used more efficiently
Improved farmers resilience through a farmers more aware by
the rational and sustainable management of their activity

21. Synergy with the other components
Benefit from opportunities for collaboration in adaptation
to CC at the regional level
Benefit from the opportunities created by the changes in
the region (a mobilized civil society, a growing interest for
vulnerable populations)
A willingness expressed by all partners to promote
implementation of concrete adaptation measures to CC
Mainstreaming adaptation to CC in the development
