A separate climate change study was conducted for this project. The design of the bridge took into consideration changes in: temperature, precipitation, seal level, flood flows, low flows, salinity, wind speed and sediment transport.

The TA will (i) develop of detailed NTP action plans by the target ministries, province, and cities; (ii) strengthen institutional capacity of key agencies within government, research institutes, and the private sector in planning and designing climate change responses; (iii) design and implement a community...

Context With more than 7,000 islands and 36,000 km of coastline, the Philippines is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Climate data for the past 50 years show trends of rising temperatures,changes in rainfall patterns, and an increasing occurrence of typhoons, flooding and drought....

This TA will facilitate the implementation of the Bangladesh Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan which will create low carbon inclusive economic growth and climate resilient development while ensuring food and energy security in Bangladesh.

This regional research and development TA will undertake studies to improve understanding of climate-induced migration in selected developing member countries  and subregions. Analysis will be undertaken and policy recommendations developed with respect to the economic and sociopolitical consequences of climate-induced migration; institutional, capacity and resource...

The TA will complement other climate change initiatives, in particular the NAPA preparation process and the “extended NAPA” project. The impact of the TA will be reduced environmental risk through improved environmental protection and better management of climate change risks. Beyond national government, the capacity...

The Program will put in place a holistic risk management system which includes the establishment of community disaster management committees (DMCs), a balanced combination of structural and nonstructural measures (such as risk education, mapping and warning, and flood proofing), and sustainability mechanisms for relevant infrastructure....

The TA will help the Water Resources and Environment Administration (WREA) (i) identify entry points for mainstreaming climate change concerns in water resources planning and management at both the policy and operational level and (ii) strengthen the capacity of decision makers to climate-proof water infrastructure....

With barriers such as extremely fragile ecological conditions, few financial resources, poor infrastructure, low levels of education, and little access to technology and markets, Western China has been suffering from climate variations and will experience severe impacts of climate change on food production, water resources,...
