Mainstreaming Climate Risk Management in Development: Progress and Lessons Learned from ADB Experience in the Pilot Program for Climate Resilience
Funds, Climate Investment | June 2017
Abstract
The Pilot Program for Climate Resilience (PPCR) is a funding window of the Climate Investment Funds, of which the Asian development Bank (ADB) is a major partner in Asia and the Pacific, delivering investments through six country programs (Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nepal, Papua New Guinea, Tajikistan, and Tonga) and one regional program for the Pacific. This study looks back at the development of PPCR funding from an ADB perspective, documents the contributions of the PPCR to country readiness for adaptation planning and climate finance, and identifies some early lessons learned from Cambodia, Nepal, and Tajikistan.

Adapting to Climate Change: Strengthening the Climate Resilience of Water Sector Infrastructure in Khulna, Bangladesh
Asian Development Bank (Asian Development Bank, 2011-03-01)Climate change and the resulting rise in sea level would affect water sector infrastructure, such as surface water supply and urban drainage systems. The climate resilience of such infrastructure should then be made more climate-resilient to optimize its expected benefits. This publication provides a specific example of assessing the impacts of climate change on the water sector infrastructure in ...Climate change and the resulting rise in sea level would affect water sector infrastructure, such as surface water supply and urban drainage systems.

Climate Action South Asia: The Economics of Climate Change in South Asia Adaptation and Impact Assessment
Asian Development Bank (Asian Development Bank, 2015-05-04)Analyses show that the cost of early action on climate change in South Asia is lower than the cost of damage brought about by climate change impacts. The region will face water shortages and agricultural food production losses, which are vital to achieving poverty reduction and other Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). South Asian countries will gain most by early inclusion of climate adaptation ...Analyses show that the cost of early action on climate change in South Asia is lower than the cost of damage brought about by climate change impacts.
