Philippines currently experience and
will continue to face significant impacts from climate
change. To ensure climate resilience, build a low-carbon
economy, and increase its role in the global climate change
dialogue, the Philippine government has launched strong
climate policy and institutional and financing reforms,
supported by a clear rationale for no-regrets action.
However, transformative progress toward a more climate
resilient society and low carbon economy remains limited.
Carried out at mid-term of the first phase of the National
Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP), the Philippine
Development Plan (2011-2016) and the current Administration,
this review is an opportunity, and comes early enough, to
ensure that first phase reforms are finalized and the
groundwork for the second and third phases put in place.
Recommendations consolidate the strategic direction of the
NCCAP and set the stage for scaling up action over the next
two phases. Specific activities are proposed to support
eight objectives organized around three pillars: (i)
strengthening the planning, execution, and financing
framework for climate change; (ii) enhancing accountability
through monitoring, evaluation, and review of climate change
policies and activities; and (iii) building capacity and
managing change.
