Stichting The Global Center on Adap

Objet publié

This project supports the Government of Bangladesh’s efforts to integrate climate change adaptation in large infrastructure projects and urban plans to make them more resilient and integrate nature-based solutions (NBS) with biodiversity co-benefits. It also seeks to incorporate the views of the most vulnerable, particularly women, in project design. Project activities include: (1) conducting high-resolution climate risk assessments and stress tests for infrastructure assets; (2) strengthening the capacity of 200 Climate Resilient Infrastructure Officers in the Government of Bangladesh; (3) integrating nature-based solutions and other adaptation solutions in at least four large-scale urban investment projects; and (4) building the capacity of infrastructure planners and designers to meaningfully engage vulnerable communities in designing and planning large-scale green infrastructure projects.
