The objective of this Technical Assignment (TA) is to develop a standardized methodology based on a common language at the regional level, to collect, manage, share, compare and analyze data on an ongoing basis to support decision-making processes related to sustainable risk assessment and management and building resilience capacity of the coastal regions of West Africa and Cameroon. Specifically, the objectives of the project were to:
¥ Develop the planning and communication documents
¥ Update the national and WACOM coordination unitÕs databases by including the outcomes of the Coastal Hazard Wheel (CHW).
¥ Identify and promote specific adaptation options and technologies most appropriate for coastal risks.
¥ Provide input for the improvement of the CHW for its future application
WE&Bs Specific Objectives included:
¥ Conducting a comprehensive collection, evaluation and analysis of the available national and regional data and its integration into the CHW system. Specifically, WE&B was directly responsible for the following areas: Biodiversity and the Integrated coastal zone management measures, supported by WASCAL
¥ Contributions to the report of the comprehensive evaluation and analysis of available national and regional data and its integration into the CHW system; and the collection and inventory work of available data, pre-processing and preliminary analysis (shared by technical antennas)
¥ Contribute to organize a regional training session for the focal points of the national antennas and the regional coordination unit of MOLOA as well as the Technical Counterpart of Cameroon on the methodology and the practical application of the CHW tool
¥ Lead the training of experts of the national antennas and the regional coordination unit of WACOM as well as the Technical Counterpart of Cameroon and relevant researchers on the data management available in the CHW system for risk mapping and adaptation options
¥Provide major contributions to the update of the classification and mapping of coastal risks and adaptation options (including Early Warning Systems), using the CHW and / or Google Earth web application.
¥Contribution to the identification, evaluation and formulation of a series of recommendations for technological options to be implemented for the sustainable management of the main identified coastal risks.
