Adapting to Climate Change

The objective of the study is to (i) propose appropriate adaptation options to be incorporated into the design of future ADB-financed projects, with a view to strengthening resilience of the water sector in Khulna to climate change; and (ii) enhance ADB's understanding of climate-related risks in urban infrastructure and the cost-effectiveness of adaptation options. The study area for the water supply system covers the southwest region of Bangladesh, while that for the urban drainage system comprises the area under the Khulna City Corporation (KCC), which is about 45 square kilometers, consisting of 31 wards. http://www.ergonline.org/documents/adapting-climate-change-ban.pdf
