CBP Socio-Economic Component Drivers-Impacts-Responses Analysis Slide 2 Reporting Module Measurement Module Remote Sensing Ground-based Measurement Protocol Module Project Information Module Toolkit advisor Project Description Module Simple Assessment Detailed Assessment Dynamic Modelling Guidance Module Assessment Tools MRV Module REDD & A/R Carbon Benefits Socioeconomic Tools Carbon Benefits Project System Slide 3 Slide 4 Slide 5 To answer important questions: Why do landusers not adopt the sustainable land management (SLM) practices offered by the project? Why do many land-users continue with practices that have negative carbon impacts? How can we improve adoption rates of SLM practices - Beyond the project area? - After the project is finished? Why do some socio-economic groups seem less likely to adopt SLM than others? - e.g. wealth, gender, farm-size related. Why use DPSIR? Slide 6 Uses of DPSIR Organises and links qualitative information effectively for analysis different layersDrivers of change Analyses the different layers of Drivers of change Impacts and their Impacts Responses to tackle root causes Equips us to think about Responses to tackle root causes Complements the CBA tool Well used tool in credible projects (LADA,GEO) Slide 7 Applying the DPSIR Framework to CBP Slide 8 State of Natural Resources Entry point for the DPSIR Total System Carbon Magnitude and Direction of change Biophysical Model Output: __ tonnes of CO2e per year State Slide 9 Direct Drivers that cause the change in carbon state Land Management Practices Pressures Slide 10 Indirect Drivers, underlying reasons or explanations Leading to adoption or non-adoption of practices Driving Forces Chain of explanation or causality Slide 11 Example: Land degradation in Uganda Two neighbouring banana farmers in Uganda, Farmer A was conserving her soil with trash lines and ditches, Farmer B was not. Why? A Chain of Explanation Slide 12 Pressure: Lack of erosion control measures Farmer B appeared not to be trying to conserve his land But . He had tried several times but the force of water coming from upslope was too great ditches were washed away Why? . Because upslope fields in supposedly protected forest areas had been recently opened up Why? .. Because some farmers were able to open fields without problem in these areas How? . Because they were influential within the village and few could oppose them and government forest protection policies/local laws were ineffective Driving Force: Corruption, policies and laws not enforced Because they were influential within the village and few could oppose them and government forest protection policies/local laws were ineffective Why is Soil Organic Matter Decreasing? A Chain of Explanation Slide 13 Some may be environmental (pest, drought, rainfall variability) Many will be economic, social and institutional in nature Driving Forces Slide 14 Impacts Consequences due to the condition and change in carbon state Impacts on user livelihoods, natural systems Impacts on different groups of people Positive /Negative Short term / Long term Landusers are concerned about impacts more than carbon Slide 15 Reduce negative impacts / promote positive impacts To improve uptake of carbon friendly practices Remove obstacles to adoption Targeted at all levels of drivers Provides guidance to policy makers, officials etc. Responses Slide 16 D1.

Long Term Impact: An impact resulting from the land management practice that starts to be felt two years or more after implementation. Level of Impact +++: Highly positive impact on humans or natural systems ++ : Moderately positive impact on humans or natural systems + : Low positive impact on humans or natural systems +/- : Mixture of positive and negative impacts on humans or natural systems - : Low negative impact on humans or natural systems - - : Moderately negative impact on humans or natural systems - - - : Highly negative impact on humans or natural systems Slide 23 Slide 24 Slide 25 D1.
