Shaanxi Sustainable Towns Development Project

active

The development objective of Shaanxi Sustainable Towns Development Project for China is to foster regional collaboration, reduce flood risk, and improve urban services in selected towns in the southern part of Shaanxi. This project comprises four components. 1) The first component, SSR Collaboration Platform, aims to improve the collaboration between towns along the upstream of the Han River Corridor through the establishment of an institutional platform. 2) The second component, Resilience Strengthening, aims to enhance resilience against floods in project towns. With an increasing incidence of floods in recent years, managing this type of natural disaster will not only help the towns adapt, but will also support them to withstand future shocks and grow amidst the fast-changing climate conditions. 3) The third component, Urban Regeneration, aims to regenerate dilapidated urban areas in the towns using a people-oriented approach to cultivate a connected and inviting urban core. 4) The fourth component, Project Management, aims to support the overall development of the project implementing entity to coordinate and manage project implementation.
