improved water quality & supply

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 regional operation improves regional collaboration and the socioeconomic and climate resilience of border-zone communities in the northern regions of Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, and Togo. It finances community‑driven, climate‑screened local infrastructure and services (e.g., water points/small systems, schools, health posts, rural markets, local roads/footpaths, youth facilities), supports livelihoods and local economic development, trains community and technical facilitators, and establishes a Regional Coordination Platform with joint studies and digital data-sharing.

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 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 connectivity, climate resilience, and safety of selected roads in Mindanao by: (i) upgrading three local “link roads” to national standards with climate‑resilient and road safety measures; (ii) rehabilitating and enhancing priority sections of the Cagayan de Oro–Davao–General Santos (CDO–Davao–GenSan) corridor, and introducing output/performance‑based maintenance; (iii) strengthening asset management, institutional capacity, and road safety; and (iv) enabling rapid response through a Contingent Emergency Response Component.
