The project will strengthen Chile’s capacity for integrated water resources management, enhance rural water supply and sanitation services, and build climate resilience through green and gray solutions, including the mainstreaming of nature-based solutions. It supports basin-level governance and planning, development of tools for surface and groundwater monitoring, and the adoption of guidelines to integrate NBS into hydraulic infrastructure, while improving rural service sustainability and managing urban floods and runoff across the country

The objective of the Integrated Water Security and Sanitation Program Multiphase Programmatic Approach (MPA) Including Phase 1 Credit for the Integrated Water Security and Sanitation Project for Senegal is to improve access to safe water supply and sanitation, and to increase resilience to flood and drought risks. There are four components to the project, the first component being water resources management and protection.

The project aims to improve the livelihoods and climate resilience of pastoral and agropastoral communities in the lowlands of Ethiopia. The project will implement NBS for flood risk mitigation, as well as wetland protection and maintenance to counter flood and drought risks. 

The objective of the Water Security Improvement Project is to build the foundation for improved water security in Cambodia and increase agricultural productivity in Selected River Basins and to provide an immediate and effective response in case of an Eligible Crisis or Emergency. There are five components to the project, the first component being improve water resources planning and institutions. This component will finance activities that contribute to laying the groundwork for improved water resources management in Cambodia.

The development objective of the Water Security Project for Burkina Faso is to improve the safety of dams, access to associated irrigation and watershed services, and climate resilience for beneficiaries. The project comprises of six components. The first component, security and climate resilience of water storage infrastructures will support the securitization of priority dam infrastructure to ensure continued access to and valorization of the associated water resources, building flood, and drought resilience.

The development objective of the Resilient Water Management for Community and Household Irrigation Project for Bolivia is to improve integrated water resources management in selected basins and increase the resilience to climate variability of vulnerable rural families in selected micro basins. The project comprises of four components. The first component, water resources planning, and pre-investment studies will fund studies that seek to address, respond to, and build capacity on present and anticipated impacts of climate change on water resources.

The development objective of the Integrated Water Management and Development Project for Uganda is to improve access to water supply and sanitation services, integrated water resources management, and operational performance of water and sanitation service providers in Project areas. It has four project component. First component, water supply and sanitation in small towns and rural growth centers and support to districts hosting refugees will support activities to improve WSS in selected small towns and RGCs in the Recipient’s territory.

The project aims to increase the sustainable access and management of groundwater in the Horn of Africa's borderlands. It will support aquifer sustainability (recharge) and flood mitigation measures, including sand dams, rainwater harvesting, afforestation, and soil and water conservation measures.

The development objectives of the Third Phase of the Food Systems Resilience Program for Eastern and Southern Africa Project for Eastern and Southern Africa, Kenya, Comoros, Malawi, Somalia are to increase resilience of food systems and the Recipient’s preparedness for food insecurity in project areas, and, in case of an eligible crisis or emergency, to respond promptly and effectively to it. The project comprises of six components.
