coastal erosion

The Saint-Louis Emergency Recovery and Resilience Project aims to reduce vulnerability to coastal hazards along the Langue de Barbarie and enhance resilience planning in Saint-Louis. The project includes relocation of populations in high-risk zones, coastal risk management plans, and hybrid coastal protection measures to address erosion and improve safety and urban planning.

The development objective of the proposed operation is to strengthen the Government of Seychelles Disaster Risk Management policy and reform agenda and enhance its capacity to efficiently respond to disasters. The project provided technical assistance to strengthen the government's capacity for strategic planning and implementation of
coastal management projects, including NBS for coastal resilience.

The development objective of Cap-Haitien Urban Development Project for Haiti is to improve selected urban infrastructure and public spaces to support a more livable and resilient Cap-Haitien city-region. This project has four components.

The development objective of Human Capital Project for is to improve access to basic services and labor market relevant training in Cabo Verde. This project has five components. 1) Support education system reforms to better prepare in-school youth for future employment, with the following sub-components: (i) Ensure all youth in secondary education acquire skills relevant to the labor market; (ii) Strengthen the system for teacher professional development; and (iii) Monitor learning outcomes and use results to improve education quality.

The Samoa Aviation and Roads Investment Project seeks to improve the climate resilience and safety of aviation and road infrastructure in Samoa. The project incorporates gray-green flood reduction measures, including mangrove restoration, bioswales, rainwater harvesting, and rain gardens, to enhance resilience and mitigate the impact of extreme weather events.

The Northern Mozambique Rural Resilience Project aims to improve access to livelihoods and strengthen natural resource management in rural areas of Northern Mozambique. The project includes mangrove restoration and coastal vegetation initiatives in Nampula and Cabo Delgado to stabilize coastlines, reduce erosion, and support fish spawning areas, alongside efforts to promote sustainable agriculture, fisheries, and community-driven development.

The Mangroves for Coastal Resilience Project aims to enhance the resilience of coastal ecosystems and communities by restoring and conserving mangroves. The project includes components for mangrove afforestation, supporting sustainable livelihoods, and strengthening integrated coastal management. These efforts reduce disaster risk, mitigate coastal flooding, and protect biodiversity.

The project objectives are to enhance tools for climate-smart planning and improve climate resilience of land and water management practices in selected provinces of the Mekong Delta in Vietnam.

Combined, the engineered and nature-based measures (mangroves) have protected 1.37 kilometers of coastline (above the baseline) for a total of 1.87 kilometers28, exceeding both the revised PDO-level target of 1.2 kilometers and the original target of 1.6 kilometers. Community-based mangrove management plans have been prepared and adopted under the village development committees and are being implemented to ensure the sustainability of the coastal protection measures on the outer islands. Mangrove as NBS also noted as protecting water suplies from saltwater instrusion.

The objective of the Kiribati Adaptaion Program was to improve the resilience of Kiribati to the impacts of climate change on freshwater supply and coastal infrastructure. The project's engineered and nature-based measures (mangroves) have together protected 1.37 kilometers of coastline (above the baseline) for a total of 1.87 kilometers. School visits, teachers and students took care of mangroves used. Community-based mangrove management plans have also been prepared and adopted under the village development committees and are being implemented to ensure the sustai
