Project Development Objective PDO Statement 20. The PDO of the IDRIP is to improve the preparedness of central government and selected local governments for natural hazards. 21. The achievement of the PDO will be measured through the following indicators: i. Local governments with functioning emergency operations centers (number) ii. Satisfaction of end-users with geophysical information services (percentage) 22. Intermediate-Level Indicators are as follows: i. C1: Multi-hazard early warning system platform established and operational (yes/no) ii. C1: Functional emergency operations centers upgraded and meet minimum standards (number) iii. C1: People (disaggregated by gender) who believe they are better prepared to respond to natural disasters after participating in outreach, training and advocacy activities (percentage) iv. C1: Share of registered users of mobile phone applications designed for early warning dissemination that are women (percentage) v. C1: Women facilitators hired and trained to undertake outreach, training and advocacy activities (percentage) vi. C2: Local governments served by seismic information services (number) vii. C2: Equipment installed by the project and functioning in line with established SOPs (percentage) viii. C2: Government officials (disaggregated by gender) that have been trained by capacity building programs (number) ix. C3: Grievance redress mechanism established and functioning (yes/no) x. C3: Complaints resolved (percentage) B. Project Components 23. IDRIP will finance critical investments and capacity building priorities for a MHEWS platform and local emergency management systems, to enhance preparedness for future disaster events, particularly geophysical disasters supporting central and local level governments, and communities. Following the series of catastrophic events in 2018, IDRIP will finance immediate needs for restoration of emergency preparedness and early warning functions in areas affected by recent disasters including West Nusa Tenggara (earthquakes in July and August 2018), Central Sulawesi (earthquake and tsunami in September 2018) and areas along Sunda Strait (tsunami in December 2018). At the national level, the project will help BNPB and its institutional partners to refine the technical design of the MHEWS platform in preparation for further investments. It will achieve this through three components that will complement capacity building and technical advisory support by other development partners in this sector (including from France, Germany, Japan, and United States of America). IDRIP will finance the supporting systems, downstream communication, and instrumentation needed for preliminary strategic investments to help establish the MHEWS platform. It will also support BNPB, selected local BPBDs, and communities to improve disaster preparedness and last-mile communication, starting with the areas affected by the 2018 disasters and followed by identified priority high-risk areas. Using the principles of a people-centered early warning system, which combines technological solutions with community empowerment, activities financed under Components 1 and 2 of IDRIP are complementary and will promote a more holistic approach to disaster resilience. Annex 2 provides further detail on the design of the project components. Component 1: Disaster preparedness and emergency management capacity (US$70 million of IBRD Loan) 24. A key goal of the Government is to provide timely warnings to save lives and reduce damages. This component will be implemented by BNPB and strengthen the capacity of GoI and communities to better prepare for, and respond to, future natural hazards. This will be achieved through investments to scale up disaster awareness activities and strengthen emergency management for faster and more effective disaster response. It will also support development and refinement of the MHEWS platform, which aims to provide early warnings for all natural hazards in the longer term, and under IDRIP will focus on earthquake and tsunami hazards. The government will adopt a holistic approach to a people-centered end-to-end MHEWS with four (4) key elements: (i) disaster risk knowledge and awareness; (ii) detection, monitoring, analysis and forecasting of hazards and their impacts; (iii) dissemination and communication of information and warnings; and (iv) emergency preparedness and response capacity. The initial phase under IDRIP will support the immediate urgent needs of local governments affected by the catastrophic eventsin 2018, followed by priority high-risk areas to be identified during project implementation. 25. Sub-component 1.1: Disaster risk knowledge and awareness (US$9.3 million) will increase knowledge, understanding, and awareness of disaster risk and climate change risks, promoting risk reduction behavior and climate change adaptation measures to better prepare Indonesians against future natural and climate-related hazards, and inform analyses for the multi-hazard early warning system platform. The project will support: (a) development and integration of multi-hazard risk mapping and modeling to support national and subnational disaster risk management; (b) development of an integrated disaster knowledge and information management and data analysis system; and (c) studies and pilots for the use of innovative technologies for awareness building and outreach programs, including inclusive (accessible and gender-sensitive) considerations. 26. Sub-component 1.2: Multi-hazard early warning system platform development (US$25.3 million) will support preparation activities for Indonesia’s MHEWS multi-sectoral platform by increasing or developing new capabilities for integrated hazard detection and public warnings system. This will include feasibility studies, detailed development plans, and technical design for MHEWS platform in collaboration with key partner ministries and agencies. The project will support: (a) designing the institutional and regulatory frameworks related to MHEWS with clear roles and responsibilities of all stakeholders; (b) establishing and operating a national MHEWS coordination platform and implementation through system integration and decision support systems; (c) establishment of data centers and communication networks; and (d) development of trainings and exercises for operating an integrated information technology platform. 27. Sub-component 1.3 Hazard information and early warning dissemination ($22.1 million) will provide support to development of disaster warning information dissemination systems and last mile communication to end users that is |
