Prospective

The development objective of the Territorial Development and Resilience Project for Chad is to improve access to infrastructure, basic services, and economic opportunities, and enhance local institutions capacity for local service delivery in selected areas of Chad. The project comprises of four components. The first component, investing in resilient local and community infrastructure and services will finance infrastructure investments, including climate-resilient community infrastructure (e.g., boreholes, greening, community gardening, sociocultural centers) that local communities (in cantons and communes) have identified under sub-component 1.1 and larger-scale transformative investments (e.g., markets, drainage infrastructure and dikes) under sub-component 1.2 to increase social, economic, and climate resilience. It consists of following sub-components: (i) community-level investments in basic services, resilience, and infrastructure; and (ii) delivering investments for local economic development. The second component, building community and institutional capacity will finance training and capacity-building activities for the benefit of local stakeholders - communities, local and provincial governments - with a focus on enabling communities to engage in local sustainable development and local institutions to perform development planning and service delivery functions while strengthening state institutions to improve their support to these groups. It consists of following sub-components: (i) capacity building for community planning to strengthen local resilience and inclusion; (ii) local government strengthening; and (iii) strengthening of local state institutions. The third component, project management will support implementation of all activities, in accordance with World Bank policies and guidelines, on coordination, supervision, financial management, procurement, audits, safeguards, monitoring and evaluation (M and E), and training and operating costs, including the cost of the project implementation unit (PIU) and the provincial coordination units (PCUs). The fourth component, contingent emergency response (CERC), initially without a budget allocation, will allow for rapid reallocation of project funds in the event of a natural or man-made crisis or major disease outbreak of public health importance during implementation of the project, in accordance with the World Bank investment project financing policy.
