Managing climate risks: The tale of two water utilities (webinar on demand)
Learning Objectives
Participants will be able to:
• Learn about best practices utilities are applying to build resilience to climate change hazards and risks.
• Apply a process to identify resilience strategies.
• Draw from the experiences presented to assist the development of plans to respond to their climate hazards and risks
Flood and Drought management tools
The Flood and Drought Management Tools project provides a methodology with online tools to facilitate the inclusion of information on floods and droughts, and future scenarios into Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) planning and Transboundary Diagnostic Analyses (TDA) and Strategic Action Plans (SAP), and Water Safety Planning (WSP). These approaches are used to support planning from the transboundary basin to local (water utility) level
Climate-resilient water safety plans: Managing health risks associated with climate variability and change
This document is intended to help water suppliers and Water Safety Plan (WSP) teams who have already committed to using the WSP approach and are developing and implementing WSPs to gain greater understanding of climate change and how it can be considered and addressed in the WSP process. This document will also be useful to other stakeholders, particularly health and environment agencies who are supporting WSP implementation.
Toolkit for Climate resilient water utility operations
This toolkit provides methodologies for a water utility to develop three documents that are essential to improve its climate resilience: a vulnerability assessment, a climate-resilient business plan, and an emergency response plan.
A tool for coastal and small island state water utilities to assess and manage climate change risk
The current edition of the tool, by its intent and design, focuses on climate vulnerability and risk assessment of the utility’s water resources
CREAT – Risk assessment application for water utilities
CREAT is a risk assessment application that helps utilities to adapt to extreme weather events by better understanding current and long-term weather conditions.
Vulnerability self-assessment tool
Conduct a drinking water or wastewater utility risk assessment:
Vulnerability Self-Assessment Tool – Web Enabled (VSAT Web) 2.0 – is a user-friendly tool that can help drinking water and wastewater utilities of all sizes to conduct a risk and resilience assessment.
