Project design incorporates environmental and social mitigation through: (1) planting and rehabilitation of 4,000 hectares of mangroves to serve as natural storm surge buffers and restore coastal ecosystems; (2) incorporation of storm and flood resilient design features in new housing to benefit up to 20,000 people in high-risk coastal areas; (3) development of systematized climate and economic risk assessments for public and private sector application across all 28 coastal provinces; (4) community-based natural resource management and livelihood diversification (e.g., mangrove honey production). Per ESS Category B classification, the project has mild adverse risks that would likely be reversible.
