520 3    |a This document is a product of the Climate and Disaster Resilience Initiative (CDRI) capacity-building project that was implemented from February to April 2010. The three-month project aimed at helping city government officials adapt to current and potential climate-related risks. The project involved eight Asian cities: Chennai/India, Colombo/Sri Lanka, Dhaka/Bangladesh, Hue/Vietnam, Kuala Lumpur/Malaysia, Makati/Philippines, Sukabumi/Indonesia, and Suwon/South Korea. The three-month CDRI program was composed of three phases: (1) building the capacity of city government officials to complete a CDRI Questionnaire for resilience mapping; (2) training officials to design a self-evaluation matrix and to initiate Climate Action Planning; and (3) initiating the development of a Climate Action Plan (CAP) and implementation process (p.4). The CDRI questionnaire for city government officials of the first phase had five dimensions (physical, social, economic, institutional, and natural) (p.5). On the basis of these dimensions, the CDRI project generated a CDRI analysis, which involved 0 to 5 indices for each dimension along with an overall index (p.6). This analysis was able to show the comparative strengths and weaknesses of the eight cities in regard to natural hazards. Pages 8 through 15 provide a one-page long CDRI analysis for each city. This part also discusses how the CDRI city analysis may have policy implications in relation to the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA). The second phase of CDRI program was a face-to-face training workshop (3-5 March 2010, Kuala Lumpur) to launch Climate Action Planning. In the three-day workshop participants from the eight cities were able to raise important issues. In the third phase, the CDRI program dealt with the implementation of the Climate Action Planning. One of the eight cities, Makati/Philippines, officially integrated the CDRI Climate Action Planning into its city planning. This should be understood as an important credit to the project’s applicability and relevance for other disaster prone cities.
