watershed management

KWSCRP‑2 finances the Mwache multipurpose dam and associated raw water transmission to increase bulk water supply for Mombasa County and Kwale County, and expands access to water in drought‑vulnerable areas of Kwale. The project combines large-scale infrastructure (main dam, check dams, gravity conveyance, access roads/bridges, electromechanical and SCADA systems) with integrated catchment management and livelihoods around the Mwache watershed, and county‑level water supply, sanitation, and hygiene investments.

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 promote community-led nature-based solutions to climate change adaptation in the Usangu catchment by financing rainwater harvesting and storage facilities, boreholes, rehabilitation of small check/charco dams to reduce channel erosion and gullying, river training to enhance flows and reduce flooding, tree planting for catchment conservation, and village land use plans for sustainable landscape management.

The project will improve climate-resilient urban infrastructure and services and strengthen institutional capacity in the Dar es Salaam metropolitan area.

The project develops multiuse water sources, climate-smart agriculture and livestock services, and environmental catchment services to strengthen rural resilience in Somalia’s drylands. It finances construction and rehabilitation of water points (e.g., sand/subsurface dams, berkads, hafir dams, boreholes), nature-based solutions for watershed-scale restoration and recharge, and community-centered planning and livelihoods support.

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.

The project will improve climate-resilient road connectivity and enable value-chain logistics development in southern Niger by financing rehabilitation of the RN1 Maradi–Zinder section (bitumen), associated secondary and rural roads, and logistics-enabling measures; strengthening institutions and project management (with HEIS); and providing a Contingent Emergency Response Component for shocks. The design integrates climate-resilient road standards, drainage and safety, and targeted support to logistics services linked to agricultural value chains and sub‑regional trade 

The project will increase access to water supply and sanitation services and improve service delivery capacity in selected areas of the Kyrgyz Republic through a 10‑year Multiphase Programmatic Approach.

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.
