| Project Detail |
Project Description In the context of rapid urbanization and ongoing fiscal federalism in Nepal, the proposed project will support
Nepal’s urban development through a bi-pronged approach of: (i) financing strategic infrastructure
investment; and (ii) providing institutional and capacity development support to the participating Urban
Local Governments (ULGs). The project consists of three components:
• Component 1: Municipal Infrastructure Investment. Strategic infrastructure investments, including
improvements in municipal roads, storm water drainage, drinking water supply, wastewater, and solid
waste management.
• Component 2: Institutional Capacity Development. Capacity building to strengthen participating ULGs
as well as provincial and federal governments in strengthening their institutional capacity for improved
design, supervision, operation and maintenance of municipal infrastructure investments.
• Component 3: Project Management, Coordination and Monitoring. This will provide technical
assistance to strengthen the capacity of a Project Coordination Office (PCO) and Project
Implementation Units (PIUs) for managing and coordinating project activities. |
