Program-for-Results (PforR) operation (with an IPF Technical Assistance component) to strengthen urban management and improve access to efficient and climate-resilient urban water and sanitation (WSS) services across participating Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) in Tamil Nadu.
The project will respond to Bujumbura’s flood emergency by financing climate-resilient urban infrastructure and risk-informed urban management.
The project will improve climate-resilient multimodal connectivity, rural accessibility, and agro-logistics in Burkina Faso’s SKBo basin by rehabilitating RN11 (Banfora–Sidéradougou–Ouo), upgrading critical sections of the Ouagadougou–Côte d’Ivoire border railway, climate-resilient improvements to 150–200 km of rural roads, and small agro-logistics facilities (e.g., solar-powered mango cold storage, milk collection centers), alongside trade facilitation and institutional strengthening
The project used farmer-led natural regeneration, which is mostly to create food forests, but also improve forest cover to reduce water runoff and maximizing rain infiltration (and protection from wind).
The project will fill critical infrastructure gaps in the Integrated Transport Network Development Plan (“ITNDP”) demonstrating use of innovative, climate-informed, safe, and nature-based solutions. It will also invest in innovative, climate resilient, nature-based design and construction solutions for roads and bridges, least-cost-engineering solutions for local infrastructure.
