The Resilient Landscapes and Livelihoods Project of Ethiopia has the objectives to improve climate resilience, land productivity and carbon storage, and increase access to diversified livelihood activities in selected rural watersheds. This project is comprised of four components: (1) Green infrastructure and resilient livelihoods component will support the restoration of degraded landscapes in selected watersheds and help build resilient livelihoods on this newly productive foundation.
To improve the connectivity, resilience, and management of key infrastructure to enhance access to social and economic opportunities for rural communities and to support international trade and logistics. The project will deploy NBS to enhance climate resilience of road infrastructure. Tree and grass planting for roadway protection and slope stabilization will be used to protect the road and its drainage system.
The Project Development Objective is to improve protected areas management, and to promote ecotourism
opportunities and non-timber forest product value chains in the Cardamom Mountains-Tonle Sap landscape. The project aims to sustain and increase forest cover which will reduce soil erosion, maintain or improve water quality for downstream users, provide protection to farms and villages located in floodprone areas, reduce GHG emissions, and protect critical natural habitats.
The development objective of the Second Southeast Asia Disaster Risk Management Project for Cambodia is to improve the disaster and climate resilience of flood-damaged rural roads in target areas, improve the capacity of the Government to prepare for and respond to emergencies, and provide immediate and effective response in case of an eligible crisis or emergency. The project comprises of four components.
The development objective of the Espírito Santo Water Security Management Project for Brazil is to: (i) to strengthen the Borrower’s capacity to manage water security risks in a changing climate; (ii) to reduce those risks in selected areas of the Borrower’s territory; and (iii) in case of an eligible crisis or emergency, respond promptly and effectively to it. The project comprises of five components. The project will implement NBS to reduce water security risks in selected river basins and support integrated flood risk management.
The objectives of the Amazon Sustainable Landscapes Project are to expand the area under legal protection and improve management of Protected Areas, and increase the area under restoration and sustainable management in the Brazilian Amazon. There are four components to the project, the first component being amazon protected areas system. This component aims to expand and consolidate an over-60-million-ha PA system in the Brazilian Amazon and advance ongoing efforts to secure its long-term financial sustainability by capitalizing the ARPA Transition Fund.
The development objective of the Gazetted Forests Management Project for Benin is to improve the integrated management of targeted Gazetted Forests, to increase access of the main consumption cities to fuelwood produced sustainably, and to strengthen selected non-timber forest product value chains for forest-dependent communities. The project aims to promote agroforestry to reduce deforestation and forest degradation, as well as conduct vegetation/reforestation activities to regenerate degraded land.
Investments will include a variety of green infrastructure measures, sustainable and climate-smart agricultural practices, and livelihoods diversification. Green infrastructure will be designed in conjunction with gray infrastructure to optimize the functionality, cost-effectiveness, and resilience of the integrated natural and built system.
