WATER RELATED IMPACTS AND RISKS
TO CLIMATE CHANGE IN PERU






Peru is one of the 10 most vulnerable countries in the world to
climate change (IPCC)
Relocation of 2 million people: climate relocation (floods, sea level
rises, loss of livelihoods).
Reduction in availability of and access to water.
Reduced hydropower generation (68% of energy source in Peru).
Availability of water dependant on rain and groundwater (causing
rationing during drought).
Increased conflicts over water use.
 Meanwhile
the water and energy demands increases (the
population of Lima increases by 120,000 annually).
Based in: Environmental Ministry of Peru (MINAM)
Climate change impacts on water availability
• Glaciers capacities represents 40% of the country’s water ‘stock’ • In 10 years time 40% of Peru’s glaciers will be gone….we will only
depend of rain…
Highly
Possible
Scenario
Source: MINAM
1989: 2042 km2 glaciers
1997: 1595 km2 glaciers
Peru:
• 5 % of world’s fresh water ressources
• Glaciers are melting

SUSTAINABILITY AND GOVERNANCE IN
TERRITORY AND CITY INTERACCIONS
City quality
environment (Brown)
Nature
inside
and
around
the city
City as part
of a wider
ecosystem:
(Territory)
(Green)
New actors are needed to sustainably
manage these interactions (Governance)
CITY WATER (RISK) GOVERNANCE
Building Resilience Capacities
City for Life + Risk Governance + Water Public Management
“The integration, in the territory and the city, of water related
risks to climate change to contribute to their Sustainability
and Governance”
The final purpose:
How (and with whom) to develop an integrated and equitable City
Water (risk) Policy and Governance Strategy?
To clarify who (and how) decides what and where, and
Which resilient capacities should be enhanced in order to be
able to implement it

IDENTIFYING KEY ACTOR´S RESILIENCE CAPACITIES
SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION OF
KNOWLEDGE
 “Social
construction” building up of knowledge
capitalizing on what actors already know and
have learned.
 Knowledge tends to remain where (and with
whom) it has been generated
 The participatory action research process
build up consensus and it becomes a capacity
building strategy itself
 Concertation as a political tool for getting
concrete agreements into action
