Chile - Water Transition Program

The development objective of the Water Transition Program for Chile is to strengthen the Borrower’s capacity for water resource management and water-related services. The Bank operation (PforR or Program) will support key activities of the Government of Chile (GoC’s) program. While addressing climate change-exacerbated droughts, floods, and water scarcity, the PforR will focus on: (i) strengthening institutional capacities for the integrated management of water resources, including the implementation of a participatory water governance approach at basin level; (ii) improving safely managed drinking water and sanitation services in rural areas; and (iii) improving climate resilience through the development of integrated green and gray solutions for irrigation and flooding at basin level. The PforR will focus on improving climate resilience through the development of integrated green and gray solutions for irrigation and flooding at the  basin level.
