Since 2015, OIKO LOGICA has been awarded a membership in
the UNIDO Climate Technology Center & Network. In 2017 we have been awarded
the UNIDO/CTCN – “Designing a
Standard Protocol to mainstreaming Climate Change Adaptation in local
government Land Use Plans in Costa Rica”.
In consortium with Ecoplan, a local consulting
firm specialized in Land Management Plans, Coastal Regulatory Plans and
Management Plans.
A
multi-disciplinary team of 8 experts is providing technical assistance to
Secretaría Técnica Nacional Ambiental (SETENA), to create a standard
operational Protocol to mainstream climate change into municipal strategic planning
documents. The Protocol will guide the
inclusion of climate change adaptation measures into land use planning through
a participative process with the institutions, the academic community and other
relevant stakeholders. The expected outcome is Technical Operational Guideline
and a GIS software decision making tool to effectively enable the local
institutions to introduce the environmental variable in land use plans.
