The project comprises of four components.

The Project Development Objective is to improve climate resilient rural road connectivity in select provinces. The project used bioengineering and other green interventions to make roads resilient to climate change.

The grant supports Panama City in developing a concept plan for urban and coastal resilience, articulating a comprehensive strategy of public investments and infrastructure financing, aiming to strengthen urban resilience.

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

The project was comprehensive, using insitutional capacity building and awareness raising of SLM for DRM, using community-based activities to restore and sustainably manage areas such as the restoration of natural waterways, reforestation of hillsides and watersheds and bush fire control (Savanna, Maritime and Kara regions). Community-Based activities in Cropland and Grazing Land included SLM best practices will be piloted and promoted in targeted areas.

The project objective was to strengthen institutional capacity of targeted institutions to manage the risk of flooding and land degradation in targeted rural and urban areas. The Government of Togo aimed to achieve objective through 1) community-based activities in watershed and flood-prone areas; 2) community-based activities in cropland and grazing lands; 3) community-based sustainable forest and wetland management; as well as 4) early warning, monitoring and knowledge systems and 5) institutional strengthening and awareness raising.
