The approved 2016 clim ate budget is
still concentrated (79%) in two NCCAP
Strategic Priority: W ater Sufficiency
(41% ) and Sustainable Energy (38%).
Compared to the previous year, this represents
an increase in the share of the budget for
Water Sufficiency, from 34%, and a decrease in
the share for Sustainable Energy, from 42%.
This shift in priorities results from a more
dramatic increase in climate expenditures for
WS (+54%) than for SE (+12%). The majority of
the allocation for Water Sufficiency is directed
to water governance (notably flood protection
managed by DPWH). Additionally, around 10%
of the FY2016 climate budget is allocated for
Food Security and 7% for Ecological and
Environmental
Sustainability,
while
the
remaining 4% is directed toward the remaining
three priorities along with some cross-cutting
programs (Figure 2). These allocation shares
are similar to 2015.
