Building Capacity for Climate Resilience in Amazonian Cities: Raising Local Well-being

preparation

This TC will strengthen the institutional capacities of local and subnational governments to plan and finance climate adaptation interventions that enhance water security and urban resilience in Amazonian cities. The specific objectives are (i) strengthen subnational institutional capacities for planning and investing in climate-adaptation interventions to enhance access to key services in urban areas, reinforcing IDB operations in the Amazon region; (ii) reinforce multilevel governance and cross-country coordination to enable the co-construction of a shared long-term vision that guides climate adaptation policies; and (iii) develop a strategic knowledge agenda to guide decision making and facilitate the mobilization of resources for sustainable and climate resilient interventions.
