The objectives of the Resilient Urban and Territorial Development Project for Bangladesh are to: (i) enhance access to climate resilient urban infrastructure and services in selected clusters, and (ii) strengthen urban management capacity in selected urban centers. There are three components to the project, the first component being climate resilient urban services and infrastructure investments. This component includes two subcomponents: climate resilient urban services and infrastructure investments in the selected clusters, and cluster-wide investments for climate resilient basic service improvements. The second component is the institutional strengthening, technical assistance, project management and operational support. This component includes four subcomponents: institutional strengthening, capacity building, technical assistance, and project management and operational support. Finally, the fourth component is the contingent emergency response.
