  • Implementing Agency:
    IBRD - The World Bank
    Summary:

    Objective The project objective is to assist the Government of Morocco in mainstreaming climate change in the national development planning process. The specific objectives are to a) improve the understanding of climate change implications for high level strategic development planning; and b) enhance resilience to climate change of key development sectors - agriculture and water - through strengthened institutional capacity, knowledge management, and piloting innovative climate change adaptation and disaster management options to reduce rural poor's vulnerability.

    Project Components:

    1. Integration of CC in development planning.

    2. Integration of climate change in the implementation of the Plan Vert (Agriculture Strategy of Morocco)

    4. Project Management and Monitoring & Evaluation

    Expected Outputs:

    1. Policy priorities to integrate CC into relevant Government policies agreed by key Government agencies (i.e. MAEG, Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Water and Env, and Ministry of Finance)

    2. Enhanced resilience to CC of agriculure in 3-5 regions

    3. Better planning of overall water management in selected basins by incorporating climate variability and change in practices of river basin agencies.

    4. M&E system operational
