Flooding due to increased rainfall & changes in rain patterns is a major issue in Penang and are already causing significant damage<\/h3>\n

It has also been observed that the economic repercussions of floods are more severely felt by low-income dwellers especially in flood-prone areas. Shortage of food supplies, electricity, clean water, banking services and communication problems can affect flood victims.<\/p>\n

Flood-risk assessment is an important part of mitigating, controlling and preventing floods. The economic demand for flood control is measured by the difference between expected flood damage before and after flood-mitigation measures are initiated. Without an assessment, floods may cause damage to property, loss of life, disruption to services businesses or agricultural activity.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_single_image image=”10201″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”w-100″][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text]A combination of increased urbanisation, heavy rain, high tides and storm surges results in floods as stormwater is unable to discharge into the sea or infiltrate into the ground table.<\/p>\n

The two factors:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Expanding built areas resulting in reduced stormwater absorption capacity<\/li>\n
  2. Increased volume and concentration of rainfall, has lead Penang Island to become exposed to flooding.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Nature-based Climate Adaptation Programme for the Urban Area of Penang Island<\/h3>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text]The programme takes on a comprehensive and collaborative approach, in which a diversified set of components addressing both the environmental and social dimensions of climate change in Penang\u2019s urban fabric will be implemented.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ offset=”vc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-4″][vc_single_image image=”10204″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”w-100″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″ offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-7″][vc_column_text]Programme Objective<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The Adaptation Fund was established under the Kyoto Protocol of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC).<\/p>\n

    The programme seeks to deliver strategic actions for adaptation through funding from the Adaptation Fund.

    2. Stormwater Management<\/h3>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text]Responding to the increasing rainfall and frequency of flooding events in Penang Island, the programme also sets out a comprehensive nature-based approach to stormwater management.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_single_image image=”10211″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”w-100″][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_column_text]The Sungai Ara Linear Park in Bayan Lepas, Penang, has proven to be a successful pilot project for a blue-green corridor due to the involvement of the local community. The park was adopted by the Department of Irrigation and Drainage under a taskforce which consisted of the Penang Island City Council, Seberang Prai Municipal Council, Department of Environment, Land and District office, State Health Department, Indah Water Konsortium and the Penang Green Council.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_single_image image=”10205″ img_size=”full” qode_css_animation=”” el_class=”w-100″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
    A. Blue-Green Corridors<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The association of green spaces with rivers is essential as it allows for the infiltration of stormwater to the groundwater table through increased water retention capacity.<\/p>\n

    This approach calls for rivers to be kept free from hard materials and its margins modelled in different levels \/platforms to constrain and regulate the path of water, protecting neighbouring urbanised areas.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

    B. Swales & Infiltration Wells<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Swales are vegetated open drains that collect stormwater whilst allowing for its infiltration to the groundwater table along its full extension. This approach reduces the accumulation of stormwater downstream, which in the case of heavy rainfall often leads to flooding.<\/p>\n

    Infiltration wells are solutions used for heavily urbanised areas as they provide stormwater retention and fast infiltration to the groundwater table using several deep layers of aggregates of different dimensions.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

    C. Upstream Retention Ponds<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Upstream retention ponds are areas used to retain stormwater and facilitate the process of infiltration into the groundwater table to avoid stormwater runoff to downstream areas.<\/p>\n

    This approach is particularly crucial in Penang whereby the existing drainage system is threatened by high tides and storm surges.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

    3. Social Resilience<\/h3>\n

    The social resilience component has a strong community-focused approach, engaging with the most vulnerable groups of society in order to assess vulnerabilities in a collaborative effort. Vulnerability assessments and targeted action plans for the communities of George Town and Bayan Lepas will be initiated in the early phase of the programme, laying the groundwork for enhancing climate change resilience.<\/p>\n

    The social resilience component comprises 2 specific programmes, which are the women and girls programme and the youth and schools programme.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    A. Women and Girls Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The women and girls programme aims to reduce gender vulnerability asymmetry and strengthen capacity within existing agencies. It is structured around 4 sub-components which direct the flow of the programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Awareness<\/strong><\/td>\nAdvocacy of women empowerment in climate-related issues through various communication campaigns.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Knowledge<\/strong><\/td>\nCo-production of educational\/training modules, tools, and adaptation resources on various topics from extreme heat to urban agriculture with women NGOs to address gender-specific climate threats.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Building Capacity<\/strong><\/td>\nProvide support, access to information and training for women leadership through peer support networks.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Empowerment<\/strong><\/td>\nCreation of a climate and environmental advocacy forum for women to discuss gender-specific risks, policies and actions.
    \nAdopting the 40:40:20 ratio as a benchmark allocation of a minimum 40% women representation in the committee of the Penang Climate Board.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

     <\/p>\n

    B. Youth and Schools Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The youth and schools programme is focused on educating youth on climate change risks & mitigation strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Awareness<\/strong><\/td>\nSchool visits to selected natural environments.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Knowledge<\/strong><\/td>\nSchool lectures on climate change supplemented with various competitions, workshops and educational site visits.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Building Capacity<\/strong><\/td>\nInitiation of a Sustainable Schools Programme.
    \nDevelopment of training modules on sustainable energy, allowing for participants to connect with prospective employers in the renewable energy industry.
    \nInternship opportunities for young people in river monitoring.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

    4. Institutional Capacity<\/h3>\n

    As the programme will pioneer the use of nature based solutions in Malaysia, it is crucial that it includes a strong knowledge codification component. Institutional capacity will be built through a knowledge management platform, the creation of the Penang Climate Board and a public health programme.<\/p>\n

    Knowledge Management Platform<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
    Database Set-up<\/strong>
