reduced pollution

The project will improve the climate resilience and operational efficiency of Ukraine’s national road network by financing routine and periodic preservation works, emergency modular bridges, and border-crossing point infrastructure and equipment, alongside technical assistance and project management. Physical investments include maintenance and repairs to state roads and bridges across government‑controlled oblasts—embedding drainage, road safety, and climate‑resilient practices—and installation of modular bridges to restore connectivity.

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.

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.

A GEF-financed regional IPF that strengthens preparedness of governments and the private sector in Georgia, Moldova, Türkiye, and Ukraine to reduce pollution in the Black Sea. The project delivers national policy/legal assessments and harmonization recommendations; prepares investment recommendations and pre-feasibility analyses for high-impact depollution projects; runs eco-innovation challenges and grants to pilot private-sector solutions; and supports regional knowledge sharing and dialogue. 

The project will support the Government of the Dominican Republic to reduce pollution and strengthen institutional and financing capacity for natural resource protection through a Development Policy Financing operation focused on policy and regulatory reforms for sustainable development

The proposed Project has drawn on international best practices such as “working with nature”.

The project will use green solutions may also be trialed to remove pollution, such as introducing flood retention areas (ponds or wetlands) with recreational amenities, establishing green corridor parks, and introducing permeable paving to encourage infiltration or bioretention areas with enhanced vegetation and filtration.
