CDB is currently implementing the ACP-EU-CDB NDRM Project: Planning for the Integration of Climate Resilience in the Water Sector in BMCs.  A consultant is currently engaged in executing Phase 1 of this project. The expected outcome of Phase 1 of the technical assistance (TA) project (the Project) is the development of a package of guidelines and technical notes or toolbox to be utilised in BMCs to mainstream climate resilience in the water sector.  The Project is being executed through a consultancy to: (a) complete sector-wide Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessments; (b) assess relevant, policies, plans, strategies, legal and regulatory frameworks and proposals to build capacity to implement resilience measures; (c) identify sector investment needs for climate resilience; (d) develop an index to measure the level of resilience of the water sector to potential impacts of climate change and natural hazards; and (e) develop a regional training and capacity building programme for BMCs in an effort to present the tools developed and promote their use.
