Program: Climate Change Adaptation
Assignment: Provide expert advices and technical support to the Pacific Department
(PARD) Climate Change Adaptation program
Position: Climate Change Adaptation Expert (Staff Consultant)
Duty station: ADB Headquarter, Manila, Philippines with travel to ADB’s Pacific
Developing Member Countries
Duration: 12 person-months, to be commenced as soon as possible (estimated
commencement date: mid November 2008)


Objective/Purpose of the Assignment
The purpose of the assignment is to provide technical and administrative support to the Pacific
Department (PARD) Climate Change Adaptation program, particularly in mainstreaming and
incorporating climate change adaptation into PARD operation.
Background
The Pacific Developing Member Countries (Pacific DMCs)1 are among the most environmentally
vulnerable nations in the world. Six of the Pacific DMCs are rated as facing extreme
environmental vulnerability, with a further three rated as highly vulnerable. ADB publication on
Climate Proofing: A Risk-based for Adaptation and Climate Risk Profile (CRP) of ten Pacific
DMCs highlight the increasing risks of the Pacific countries from climate change, particularly
due to change in rainfalls, temperature, wind gust, and sea level rise; this is further emphasized
by the ADB Midterm Review of the Pacific Strategy (2005-2009). A recent report by the World
Bank also presented similar conclusion. Sea surface temperatures have increased and these
changes are also linked in part to an increased frequency and intensity of El Niño events. Rates
of change are likely to increase in the future in terms of average and extreme conditions, and
increasing climate variability. The consequence is that the need for the Pacific countries to
adapt to the adverse effect of climate change.
In response to the increasing problems faced by the Pacific DMCs, PARD is in the effort of
mainstreaming climate change adaptation into country program, including ensuring that climate
change adaptation is adequately considered in all facets of economic development, and in
alignment with each DMCs’ Country Partnership Strategy (CPS),2 and climate proofing of
programs and projects those are climate sensitive. In addition, PARD (in cooperation with
Regional Sustainable Development Department of ADB [RSDD]) is preparing Climate Change
1 Pacific DMCs consist of: Cook Islands, Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), Fiji Islands, Kiribati, Palau, Papua
