The SNIP of Guatemala, and its efforts to generate more resilient infrastructure against disasters and the effects of climate change. Since 2005, SNIP has been developing the Risk Management Analysis Tool for Public Investment Projects (AGRIP) as a continuous effort. This tool enables the identification of potential threats at the Project site where construction, expansion, or improvement is planned, using field evaluation reports that are then incorporated into the digital AGRIP tool to estimate the level of risk. Based on the results obtained from AGRIP, the Project developer should consider

The member countries of the Council of Ministers of Finance or Treasury of Central America, Panama and the Dominican Republic (COSEFIN)- Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama and the Dominican Republic have been working since 2020 with the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) on the project "Disaster Risk Reduction and Sustainable and Inclusive Climate Change Adaptation in Public Investment" (RIDASICC,) funded by the Swiss Cooperation (COSUDE). The main objective of the project is to strengthen the SNIPs of the countries of the region by

The National Planning Department (DNP) is responsible of managing Colombia's National Public Investment System (SNIP). In order to generate more resilient infrastructure against disasters and the effects of climate change, the SNIP developed the "Resilient Interventions Toolbox", which is a compendium of 5 tools generated to implement more resilient public investment projects (PIP) in the face of disaster risks. The tools are: 1.- Guidelines for PIP the formulation, 2.- Methodology for risk assessment, 3.- Guide for analyzing disaster risks, 4.- Verification protocol and validation application

Peru has developed a methodology for identifying, quantifying and valuing Greenhouse emissions in various sectors, including electricity generation, waste treatment, and solid waste. Additionally, the country has issued a Technical Note for the use of the Social Evaluation System SES in Investment Projects. The SES applies to social evaluation methodologies such as Cost-Benefit, Cost-Effectiveness and Cost-Utility.

Chile has had a Social Cost of Carbon (SCC) since 2013, and is currently developing a stepped SCC estimation (increasing over time), the ECSE Software was also developed in 2018 to promote energy efficiency in public buildings, and there are sectoral methodologies (transport, hot water supply, and comprehensive household waste management) for the Social Evaluation of Projects that include the identification, quantification and valuation of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) impacts.

Nicaragua has significant experience in incorporating disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) variables. In 2009, the first General Methodology for Project Formulation and Evaluation was introduced, and 2010 saw the adoption of the Economic Evaluation Guide for the Inclusion of the Disaster Risk Variable in Public Investment, developed by CEPREDENAC. 1 Based on the experience of applying this guide and developments and adaptation in different sectors, the National Public Investment System (SNIP) identified the need to update the methodology and published the General

In 2022 tools, procedures and detailed methodology were developed for identifying, quantifying and valuating GHG emissions/capture, as well as their incorporation in the methodologies of Socioeconomic Evaluation of Investment Projects.

The SNIPH developed the "General Methodological Guide for the Formulation and Evaluation of Public Investment Programs and Projects". According to this guide the determination of whether a project should undergo the Project Shielding Method is based on the use of the Histogram Evaluation tool for Site and Built Environment Assessment. This tool includes two blocks of analysis: the first block assesses the "Geomorphology and Watershed" Component and the "Socio-Natural Threats" Component, while the second block evaluates vulnerability through the “Physical Vulnerability of the Infrastructure"
