Selection of ProjectsSix ministries were identified, considering the mandates given in the Rules of Business (RoB)

164 projects were selected as DRR sensitive based on the following criteria-Title CheckDPP AnalysisExpert Opinion

Categorization & WeightageThose 164 projects were categorized and assigned with weightage by carrying out KII with the officials, subsequently checked and verified based on expert opinion and field insights.

• High= 70-100% of the total allocation is dedicated to DRR (Weightage Value 0.85)

• Medium-= 40-69% of the total allocation is dedicated to DRR (Weightage Value 0.55)

• Low =less than 40% of the total allocation is dedicated to DRR (Weightage Value 0.20) 5

Way Forward A network of focal points for better coordination among

relevant ministries

Economic codes in budget classification for disaster related allocation (increase the visibility of the embedded investments for DRR)

DRR issues need further illustrations in DPP and Planning Guidelines

Disaster impact assessment (DIA)

Central database management system

Lag time reduction (difference between project approval date and actual start date)

Development of smart indicators for M&E of 7th FYP

Conduct further in-depth studies 15
