Tender Details

Strengthen Climate and Disaster Resilience in the North Eastern Region of India The objective of this assignment is to strengthen climate and disaster resilience in the North Eastern Region of India (Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura, Sikkim) and Himachal Pradesh by assessing risks and identifying policy and investment options for key climate relevant and disaster-prone sectors. This will be achieved by: (1) Literature review of climate and disaster risks and carbon emissions profile in the North Eastern Region of India. Scoping of impacts and risks in critical sectors such as agriculture, forestry, transport, water, energy, urban, and health, including impact of COVID-19. (2) A review of existing institutional frameworks, policies, capacities related to disaster resilience and climate mitigation in critical sectors and vulnerable areas. (3) A systems assessment and benchmarking exercise based on identified priority areas for risk reduction and systemic resilience in key sectors. (4) Identification of high-return policies, institutional capacity building, and investments to improve climate and disaster resilience and achieve carbon neutrality, including opportunities to mobilize the private sector. (5) Capacity building and dissemination of results through inclusive stakeholder engagement involving relevant government officials and local communities. The final output of this assignment is a report that prepares prioritized investment plans for each state based on data for supporting green, resilient, and inclusive livelihoods in the States of Indias North Eastern Region, which encompasses policy, regulatory, knowledge, investment, and community-based measures to build back better while responding to COVID-19. The plans should be akin to the McKinsey Cost Curves that identify investments that buy down the most risk and carbon emissions per rupee spent. For these purposes, the World Bank is seeking an experienced consulting firm to support the team in developing this work as part of the South Asia Climate Adaptation and Resilience Partnership (SCARP), Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR), and Climate Smart Facility (CSF) Grant for the Development of Resilient Programs for Northeast India.
