The project worked to fund community-led development projects, and build capacity for improved land management practices.

The objectives of the Andhra Pradesh Disaster Recovery Project are to restore, improve, and enhance resilience of public services, environmental facilities, and livelihoods in targeted communities in the State of Andra Pradesh, India. To this end, the Government of India, the State of Andhra Pradesh and the World Bank have designed an integrated project with seven components that includes restoring mangroves to improve coastal resilience, which act as a "shelter belt", and beachfront restoration.

The project's objective is to improve the livelihoods of rural households and the sustainability of natural resources in the program area. The project is part of the wider landscape management program, which will aim to integrate rural households into sustainable agriculture and forest-based value chains in the provinces of Nampula and Zambezia.
