Project Detail:
City Resilience, Affordable Housing, Sustainable Tourism and Inclusive Economic Growth for Livable Cities.
A regional technical assistance (TA) is proposed to support India and Nepal for sustainable tourism development and affordable housing to contribute to the development of livable cities that are green, climate resilient, inclusive, smart and competitive. The TA will support policy advice, capacity building, and project preparation in several states/cities of India and Nepal by applying innovative and integrated solutions with a focus on the key subsectors of: (i) social and affordable housing; (ii) sustainable tourism development and the creative economy; and (iii) municipal and subnational financing. The TA will enable enhanced climate action and financing, disaster risk management, and increased private sector participation and investment across the subsectors. The TA will support robust climate mitigation and adaptation measures for developing transformational type 1 and 2 projects in the affordable and social housing and tourism subsectors. These projects will be aligned with the Paris Agreement and address India's climate change priorities. The TA will initially support India and Nepal but scope will be expanded to cover additional South Asia DMCs subject to DMCs' needs and funding availability.
