Pitch

Municipalities of Oruro with preventive vision, plan and elaborate their Action Plan with resilience to climate change and early warning


Description

Summary

The Municipalities of the Department of Oruro, because of their limited income they have for the execution of their action plan, do not have a Department of Climate Risks, they do not have a system of monitoring, follow-up and early warning, as well as with the personnel Trained to deal with these threats, which is why families and communities are vulnerable and victims of natural disasters due to climate change that is punishing with greater emphasis in the rural area, causing losses in their production and investment that they make With great effort especially the small family producers, they do not have an agricultural insurance that covers the investment made, the state only grants a minimum compensation, which reaches in case of total loss of the product sown to a maximum of three hectares, Where it does not reach the 10% of the invested, this causes a migration of the field to the main cities of the country or neighboring countries, from this it is proposed to train and to train human resources of the Municipalities and Original Authorities to design a plan of Early warning action, to prepare projects considering climate risk maps, soil suitability classification with capacity to respond to these factors, implementing monitoring and follow-up systems in coordination with the Association of Municipalities of Oruro (AMDEOR), Ministry of Environment, Governance, Meteorological, Cartographic and International Cooperation Centers.

Meteorological Centers: Coordination and proportion of data to the systems of monitoring and monitoring to the municipalities

Municipal Governments: Personnel and budget designation for the implementation of a system of monitoring and follow-up of early warning at the municipal level and the creation of a community of response to climate risk, another important role is to socialize, sensitize, diffuse and coordinate With the agricultural producers

Technicians and original authorities: Develop, design a system for monitoring and monitoring climate risk, early warning and agricultural adaptation according to soil suitability

Multidisciplinary Agricultural and Management Unit (UMAG): To train, train technicians and original authorities, support in the elaboration of a system of monitoring and follow-up of early warning and climatic risks, creation of a joint community of the 36 municipalities of response to climatic effects


Where will these actions be taken?

The Department of Oruro is in full plateau, 3706 meters above sea level, its predominant topography is flat, although much of the territory is mountainous, where the majestic Sajama rises with an elevation of 6542 msnm. Oruro has been benefited with mineral deposits such as tin, wolfram, silver, lead, agriculture and livestock etc, is located to the west of the Republic of Bolivia;Limits to the north with the department of La Paz; To the south with the department of Potosí; To the east with the departments of Cochabamba and Potosí and to the west with the Republic of Chile. It has an area of ​​53,558 km² and a population of 490,612 inhabitants (census 2012).

The project includes the following municipalities: Oruro, Caracollo, El Choro, Challapata, Sanctuary of Quillacas, Corque, Choquecota, Curahuara de Carangas, Turco, Huachacalla, Escara, Machacamarca Cross, Yunguyo del Litoral, Esmeralda, Pazña, Antequera, Huanuni , Machacamarca, Salinas de Garci Mendoza, Pampa Aullagas, Sabaya, Chipaya, Toledo, Eucaliptus, Andamarca, Belen de Andamarca, San Pedro de Totora, Santiago de Huari, La Rivera, Todos Santos, Huayllamarca, Soracachi, Sanctuary of Quillacas, Cosapa


What are other key benefits?

All municipalities in our country have early warning systems and climate risks, as well as inventory and classification of soil suitability for a rational and adequate use of natural resources

The agricultural producers of the different communities adapted to the climatic change make an adequate management of their natural resources in coordination with their municipalities before the beginning of the agricultural cycle

The state with its Ministry of Environment and water have trained personnel to respond to the climatic effects in the 9 departments of Bolivia and articulate with the monitoring systems of municipalities


What are the proposal’s costs?

Personnel / Personnel Expenses - Value at US $ 44800

Supplies - Value in US $ 20000

Equipment / Furniture - Value in US $ 10000

Travel - Value at US $ 15000

Contracted Services / Consultants - Value in US $ 13000

Office costs / Admin - Amount in US $ 11000

Monitoring and Monitoring 5000

Audit - Value in US $ 5000

Total project cost at US $ 153800


Time line

Based on training, training of technicians and indigenous authorities on the effects of climate change and the implementation of a system of monitoring, early warning monitoring and classification of soil suitability in municipalities, they constitute preventive agents for Farming families.

The municipalities make strategic alliances with the national government, departmental and international cooperation to insert an exclusive budget line for the system of monitoring and follow-up of early warning and become a state policy, with the purpose of making it sustainable in the medium and long term term


Related proposals

Early warning system anticipates climate threats, absorbs shocks in the most vulnerable communities and reshapes landscape mitigation adaptation

The linking of climate information to life strategies through ICT / Almaz

Train rural women by linking climate information through livelihood strategies of Information Communication Technologies

The two proposals mentioned, in one way or another, are related to ours, since both contain early warning systems, training and training to the target group (technicians, Municipal Authorities)
