The Mainstreaming Framework

• Is a tool for operationalising the HOW TO mainstream;

• Is a tool for stock-taking / mapping;

• Is a tool for advocacy;

• Is a framework for planning;

• Is a tool for identification of priority areas and strategies for intervention (entry points)

Key Points: Mainstreaming Components

1. Mainstreaming DRR is a process:

• non-hierarchical, not static• many entry points and linkages • context specific

2. A framework can help structure components of a mainstreaming strategy

3. Components can provide milestones/ checklist

4. Examples/ case studies

Exercise: Entry Points For DRR Mainstreaming

Special Note:

1. Get a handout from the group facilitator – this person should be the one most familiar with the case study in the handout

2. People with expertise in the sphere area you are allocated to: please act as resource people

Groups:

1. NTT - Policy: Replace this text with participant names

2. Palu City – Organisation: Replace this text with participant names

3. Bengkulu – Awareness: Replace this text with participant names

4. Jakarta - Citizens: Replace this text with participant names

Exercise: Entry Points For DRR Mainstreaming

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Read through the excerpt of the baseline assessment for the province/city assigned to you.

2. Develop strategic interventions required to mainstream DRR,

• utilising the sphere assigned to you as an entry point• then draw connections to the other spheres to support it.

3. Prepare a 5 minute brief to present your strategy to the other groups

Time: 30 min for group work

Key Points: Mainstreaming Components Sessions

1. Baseline information on DRR provides entry points & priorities for DRR

2. Mainstreaming framework can guide stocktaking and planning

3. Understanding linkages between the components of the spheres and how they support (or hinder) each other can help
