Livable, Resilient, and Water-Secure Cities Investment Program (Tranche 1)

proposed

The proposed program will support the Government of Cambodia's efforts in achieving its targeted urban and water resilience, economic growth, poverty reduction, and sustainable development goals. It will include reforms and institutional strengthening of municipal service providers and long-term urban and regional planning of climate- and disaster-resilient urban infrastructure and services to deepen impacts and sustain infrastructure and systems. The program will finance priority short- to medium- term investments and associated institutional strengthening activities needed to (i) improve, expand, and sustain disaster- and climate-resilient urban areas, infrastructure, and services; and (ii) promote water security for cities and districts in about 14 provinces.
