Prepared in response to the very severe cyclonic storm Hudhud (2014), the project restored and enhanced resilience of critical services, infrastructure, and livelihoods across cyclone‑affected areas of Andhra Pradesh.
The operation supported integrated urban regeneration, mobility, and flood risk management in selected counties of Ningbo Municipality (Xiangshan, Ninghai, Fenghua).
The project will restore access to essential municipal and health services and resilient rural housing in provinces affected by the February 2023 earthquakes. It finances rehabilitation and reconstruction of municipal water, sanitation, stormwater drainage, and associated infrastructure; restoration and equipping of essential health services (including prefabricated facilities, mobile primary care and diagnostics, and disability services); and resilient, energy‑efficient rural housing and village infrastructure, plus project management and Hands‑on Expanded Implementation Support.
The project will improve basic urban infrastructure and living conditions in selected northern cities (Pemba, Nampula, Nacala, Montepuez) through climate‑resilient investments and institutional strengthening. It finances urban roads and access improvements with micro‑drainage; drainage and erosion control (including nature‑based solutions); small water supply systems; energy‑efficient street lighting; and rehabilitation of priority public buildings (schools, clinics, markets).
The project will improve climate-resilient urban infrastructure and services and strengthen institutional capacity in the Dar es Salaam metropolitan area.
The additional financing will strengthen public service delivery capacity of local governments, increase access to climate-resilient urban infrastructure and services, and enable immediate response to eligible crises in selected Somali cities. It supports urban drainage and flood risk management, climate-resilient streets, bridges and walkways, pedestrian safety and solar streetlighting, and municipal systems for inclusive service delivery. Institutional strengthening, analytics, and project management build municipal capacity; a CERC enables rapid response.
This Development Policy Financing with a Catastrophe Deferred Drawdown Option (Cat DDO) supports Romania to strengthen inclusive multi‑hazard preparedness and response and advance disaster risk reduction and climate action.
This Development Policy Financing with a Catastrophe Deferred-Drawdown Option (Cat DDO) strengthens the Government of the Philippines’ capacity to manage disaster and climate risks across education, human settlements, and health systems. Policy actions integrate risk‑informed and evidence‑based resilience measures in school infrastructure planning and emergency preparedness; mainstream resilience in land use planning, urban design strategies, and establishment of green/open spaces; and embed resilience standards in the construction of health facilities.
The program will strengthen the capacities of urban institutions to improve the delivery and resilience of urban infrastructure and services, enhance private sector engagement in urban planning, and support the transition of refugee camps into integrated host community and refugee settlements.
The project develops high-quality designs for a green, resilient, and inclusive waterfront park in Downtown Kingston, alongside urban upgrading and institutional capacity building to catalyze private sector-led redevelopment. SOP 1 finances conceptual and detailed designs, baseline and planning studies, MSME mapping and economic activation, and advisory services (including a City/Business Improvement District model), with climate‑smart and universal design principles embedded and a CERC for shocks.
