TRANSFORM Program
PROGRAM SUMMARY:
Mercy
Corps Indonesia and its partners – EcoMetrix Solutions Group (ESG), AtmaConnect
(Atma), Mercy Corps Indonesia (YMCI) and the Semarang City Development Planning
Agency (Bappeda) – are implementing a scale-up grant to build flood resilience
for urban communities that face frequent and severe flood risk in the
downstream of Garang River Basin, Semarang, Indonesia. Trans boundary flood risk
management through governance and innovative information technology (TRANSFORM)
project will take an integrated approach that incentives multi-stakeholder
coordination and action for flood resilience at a Basin level through access to
cutting-edge, user friendly information and decision-making tools.
Since
2008, Mercy Corps Indonesia has worked with the Semarang City Government,
universities, private sector and community action groups to study and raise
awareness around the city’s vulnerabilities, support development of resilience
strategies and mobilize city projects across flood prone areas. The work has
been implemented as part of the Rockefeller-funded Asian Cities Climate Change
Resilience Network (ACCCRN), and more recently, as part of the Zurich-funded
Community Flood Resilience Measurement Program.
Under the
Water Window Challenge of Global Resilience Partnership, the Mercy Corps
Indonesia-led Team will scale its approach from a city to a Basin-level,
engaging government, communities, and the private sector upstream and outside
of the city’s administrative boundaries to tackle the major drivers of
downstream flood risk. The initiative will apply ESII Tools developed by ESG to
research land use practice in the upstream areas that affecting downstream
areas, analyzing, and highlighting cost benefit value for potential actions
that can incentivize communities and ecosystems. TRANSFORM will also apply
AtmaGo, a tested free-of-charge, mobile-based app that provides an effective,
low-cost communication tool for communities to share vital information on flood
risks. In addition, TRANSFORM will enhance investment and implementation of trans
boundary flood risk mitigation measures by designing interventions directly
resulting from information emerging from the ESII tool on long-term flood risk
reducing measures.
