The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved two projects with $173 million in loans and grants to accelerate climate-adaptive water resources management in Cambodia. The first is an $88 million Integrated Water Resources Management Project targeting river basins in Battambang and Pursat provinces in the Tonle Sap basin. The project will strengthen integrated, climate-adaptive, and eco-friendly water resources management, modernize irrigation systems, and reduce flood risks. A grant of $4.3 million from the Asian Development Fund, which provides grants to ADB's most vulnerable countries, is included to augment the capacity of communities in climate-resilient water management. ADB will partially administer $80 million loan to be cofinanced by the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. The project will also promote climate-mitigative irrigation water management through attached technical assistance grant financed by the Japan Fund for Prosperous and Resilient Asia and the Pacific.
