Sponge City Construction
• Sponge city construction involves a series of investments, which can mitigate impacts from floods and droughts through artificial and natural based solutions for storing and timely releasing excess rainfall
• In the PRC, 30 pilot sponge cities including Shenzhen are under implementation
• Sponge cities in the PRC were first financed though ADB’s sovereign operations - the client moved from public to private finance
PRC: Climate-Resilient and SmartWater Infrastructure Project (private/commercial finance)
Climate-resilient Techniques

Contingent Disaster Financing for Natural Hazard and Health Emergency
• August 2019: ADB approved the Contingent DisasterFinancing (CDF) mechanism under policy-based lending.
• April 2020: ADB expanded the CDF mechanism to includehealth-related emergencies, in addition to disasters fromnatural hazards
• August 2020: 8 Pacific countries have used CDFarrangements, all of which have disbursed, two inresponse to tropical cyclones and six for COVID-19
• $1 billion in new CDF financing under preparation
Key features of Contingent Disaster Financing (CDF)
• Funds immediately available in the event of apre-agreed triggering disaster; provides rapidfinance for government to respond
• Helps ensure prior policy and risk mitigationmeasures are in place to enhance resilience inaddition to disaster response
• Takes a programmatic approach to ensurefinancing and develop long-term resilience
Flood Risk Management and Pandemic Response in Chennai, India
Proposed ADB Loan “Integrated Urban Flood Management for the Chennai-Kosasthalaiyar Basin Project” Proposed Grant for “Integrated Pandemic and Disaster Risk Management for the Urban Poor in Chennai”
PROJECT FEATURES:• Upgrade and expand climate-resilient, urban flood protection infrastructure in the Kosasthalaiyar River Basin• Develop capacity of local authorities and communities to plan urban integrated flood management• Strengthen WASH services and provide disease prevention training and personal protective equipment to 30 primary
and secondary schools, 3 community health centers, and 19 primary health centers in flood-prone, urban low-income communities
• Improve COVID-19 surveillance and infection prevention and control in flood-prone, urban low-income communities• Develop combined flood-related disaster and epidemic response plans for future simultaneous disasters• Define a new, more integrated project type with expanded resilience to address multiple threats

WATER FOR THE FUTURE
WATER SECURITY STRATEGYFOR LAC
Raul Munoz CastilloSr. Water Specialist INE/WSA
SIWI, Aug 2020
“Hydrocentrismo” Vision Holistica – Seguridad Ambiental
198 million people without access to safe water
326 million people without access to safely managed sanitation
The water figures in LAC
88% of households without wastewater treatment
In 2025, 11 countries in the region will suffer deficits in water storage infrastructure
30% Of global water supplies are in LAC
22.000 m3 average availability of water per capita every year in LAC
Global level: 6.100 m3
What is the situation of Water Security in LAC?
ABUNDANCE OF RESOURCES, INEFFICIENT MANAGEMENT
WATER QUALITY IS DETERIORATING
LACK OF LAWS AND INSTITUTIONS OF GOVERNANCE
AND MANAGEMENT
WATER INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS
CLIMATE CHANGE: VARIABILITY AND EXTREMES
TRANSBOUNDARY BASINS
Our value proposition: Innovation for WS in LAC
What is needed for a paradigm change towards WS in LAC?
Close the gap: Invest in water and sanitation supply.
Invest in efficient infrastructure, designed with a nexus approach.
Modernize management, with legal frameworks and efficientinstitutions to implement water security strategies at all levels.
Pollution prevention agenda.
Generate the necessary knowledge on Nature Based Solutions.
Develop innovative and flexible financing models.
Create adequate framework for transboundary basins.
Support knowledge development for science and technology.
