Prospective

The development objectives of Climate and Disaster Resilient Cities Project for Türki̇ye are to increase access to seismic and climate resilient housing, municipal infrastructure and services in Project provinces in Türkiye, and to respond promptly and effectively in the event of an eligible crisis or emergency. This project has five components. 1) The first component, Institutional strengthening to enable conditions for urban resilience, aims to provide technical assistance to Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change (MoEUCC) and local authorities in Project provinces and other provinces vulnerable to disaster risks, to strengthen their capacity to develop, implement, and monitor green and resilient urban transformation programs. 2) The second component, Expanding access to resilient housing, aims to provide demand-side support for resilient housing in the project provinces by financing sub-loans (in Turkish lira) at below-market conditions for eligible owners to retrofit or reconstruct their housing or commercial units in risky residential or mixed-use buildings to meet resilient building code and energy efficiency standards.
