Input: **The World Bank** Uganda Development Response to Displacement Impacts Project Phase II (P510476) PROJECT APPRAISAL DOCUMENT (d) sustainable land management practices were adopted on 5,110 hectares of land area (target 4,500). A World Bank strategic review of the Uganda WHR-financed portfolio highlighted the substantial impact of the project, with notable achievements in strengthening the inclusiveness of district level development planning, strong community engagement, and efficient implementation through the community-driven development (CDD) approach and community procurement. The Implementation Completion and Results Report (ICR) for Phase I highlighted that other DRDIP countries drew inspiration from Uganda’s legal and policy framework and operational approaches on issues such as CDD, livelihood, and refugee inclusion in local planning and decision-making. [18] 20. **Phase I introduced innovations for forced displacement preparedness and social cohesion.** The project featured the world’s first displacement risk financing mechanism, the Displacement Crisis Response Mechanism (DCRM). The DCRM provided rapid contingency financing to build resilience in districts experiencing large refugee inflows. A pilot to reduce gender-based violence (GBV) and violence against children (VAC) also contributed to social cohesion. A 2022 World Bank study on forced displacement reinforced the value of projects such as DRDIP, concluding that ‘multi-sectoral development investments directed to refugees

Input: if people consider insurance as an investment, as in Karni and Safra (1987). One might think that this type of bias would have spillover effects (which I do not observe), but may also be present at the individual level if people believe recent insurance payouts are a sign of individual luck. Another explanation could be that insurance purchasers behave as if they are “gambling with house money,” as in Thaler and Johnson (1990). If customers exhibit loss aversion, they may not view insurance premiums paid after receiving payouts as true losses, since they are still “in the red” in their relationship with the insurance company. If the assumption is that reference points adjust after receiving insurance payouts, the observed behavior is consistent with this theory. This explanation is bolstered by the fact that the data show negative effects of small payouts, with the effect of payouts becoming positive only 19 [This analysis is available in the supplemental appendix, table S.5. There is no correlation between payouts and a dummy](http://wber.oxfordjournals.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1093/wber/lhw045/-/DC1) for our “Marketing Restricted Sample.” However, BASIX is more likely to offer insurance in areas where there were insurance payouts in the previous year.

Input: for all implementing entities, including community-based organizations and seed grants for VRFs, will be described in the FM section of the PIM. The PIM will also include a Community Operations Manual that will detail all steps in the CDD process, including accountability arrangements. 75. **Audit** . The project will have two audit reports that will be submitted to the World Bank by OPM and IG within six months after the end of the financial year. The project will also have interim financial reports submitted to the World Bank within forty-five days after the end of the quarter by both OPM and IG. **Procurement** 76. **Procurement for the project will be carried out in accordance with the World Bank Procurement Regulations** **for IPF Borrowers, dated February 2025 (Procurement Regulations).** The project will be subject to the “Guidelines on Preventing and Combating Fraud and Corruption in Projects Financed by IBRD Loans and IDA Credits and Grants”, dated October 15, 2006, and revised in January 2011 and as of July 1, 2016 (Anti-Corruption Guidelines), and beneficiary ownership disclosure requirements.

Input: just outside our 20 km cutoff distance may also be “treated” by the mine, and the investment phase of the mine that precedes initial production can generate substantial employment. Overall, the effects do not change much except making the cash earnings coefficient larger and more significant. The increase in cash earning opportunities is estimated at 7.5 to 7.8 percentage points compared with 5.4 in the baseline estimation. **6.6 Employment and wages using the GLSS** The DHS data do not provide detailed information regarding how much an individual earns for work, or her wage rate, but the GLSS does collect such data. First, we try to replicate the results estimated with the DHS data. Panel A of table 11 indicates that agriculture becomes less important in mining communities for women (statistically insignificant), who mainly shift into services and sales (statistically insignificant, except for strategy 2). Men are more likely to work as miners (statistically significant across all strategies). 29

Input: maps, which have a spatial resolution of 20 m, represent the current conditions for five return periods: 10, 25, 50, 100, and 1000 years. Future conditions, again using the five return periods, include a sea level rise scenario of +30 cm in the year 2050 (consistent with the Blow^ sea level rise used for the maps produced for this study) in combination with current river discharge (FIM 2013). Potential peaks in precipitation events and/or river discharges due to climate change are not covered by this data set. The inundation layers for a 10, 25, and 50year return period under current climate conditions and given a sea level rise scenario of +30 cm are shown in Fig. 2.

Input: their accommodation in the coming months should there be need for collective accommodation facilities to create additional space for newcomers. Participants also expressed significant financial strain in covering the costs of their accommodation. While only 4% of respondents (17 households) reside in accommodation provided by their employer, it is noteworthy that their information and other priority needs are heightened. While accommodation was indicated as a priority need by only 13% of respondents, employment and information needs were much higher for this group, mentioned by 53% and 27%, respectively, compared to 32% and 12% of respondents overall. This group also highlighted a much higher need for information on legal status (40%), Temporary Protection (27%) and how to claim asylum (20%) than the overall respondents (26%, 15% and 5% respectively). These findings may reflect that Ukrainian Temporary Protection respondents living in employer-provided housing face barriers to accessing information and may be seeking assistance in finding new employment and in relation to their legal status. Finally, out of those who do not have a rental contract (6%), the majority of respondents (92% in comparison to 75% in Q1) are in this situation because the unit is rented by another person or entity.

Input: rural development approach.** The region not only hosts a significant migrant population, primarily from Ethiopia, but also grapples with chronic underdevelopment, reflected in high poverty rates, limited access to basic services (including water, sanitation, healthcare, and education), and high levels of unemployment. The continuous inflow of migrants places additional strain on these already overstretched services, exacerbating the challenges faced by host communities. The region’s arid climate and vulnerability to climate change further intensify these challenges, restricting opportunities for sustainable livelihoods. Poverty in Dikhil is marked by multiple layers of deprivation – economic exclusion, poor social infrastructure, and environmental fragility – compounded by limited access to markets and essential infrastructure. As a result, the region’s socio-economic landscape requires a nuanced, multi-sectoral response that simultaneously addresses these interconnected issues. The project’s integrated approach will create sustainable livelihoods for both local residents and migrant communities while contributing to the 4 World Bank, Gender Portal. 5 UNHCR, African Development Bank Group, IGAD, EAC (2024), Regional Report Draft: Regional Program on Enhancing the Investment Climate for the Economic Empowerment of Refugee, Returnee and Host/Return Community Women in the East and Horn of Africa and Great Lakes Region Page 3

Input: confirms that the coefficient for electricity access is negative using the treatment distance 20 km. However, with a treatment distance of 10 km, the effect is marginally positive and insignificant. If we use a treatment distance of 50 km, we no longer see a significant effect. In panel Ab, the results are replicated using a spatial lag model, meaning that we allow for nonlinear effects with distance. In reality, it seems like the electricity rate is much higher before a mine (dashed line) than with an active mine (the blue line). However, when the results are decomposed by migrant status in panel Ac of figure A1 (Annex) we find that migrants are driving the lower electricity rate. In fact, among nonmigrants, the electricity rate is higher 0–10 km from an active mine, although it is slightly lower 10–20 km away. [14] **6.3 Distributional effects on wealth and inequality** Table 9 presents the effects of mining on asset wealth and on asset wealth inequality. Wealth data are available in the form of a wealth index, but only for the two last DHS surveys. Following Fenske (2015) and Flatø and Kotsadam (2014), we calculate inequality by means of a Gini coefficient (recoding

Input: regions. However, all regions (particularly AFR and LCR) include countries that have no lending, despite significant environmental problems. **Figure 5.2: World Bank Environmental Lending by Region** **vs. Overall Environmental Problems (Log Scale)** The number of such zero-lending cases suggests that the Bank's interaction with these countries has been affected by other factors. We introduce broader considerations into our regressions by including the Bank's total country lending and countries' OED project success rates, as well as regional differences. The results in columns 2 and 3 of Table 5.1 suggest that the Bank's overall lending relationship with a country and the country's project success rate are both significant determinants of environmental lending. The results in column 3 also indicate a significant component of environmental lending to two regions (ECA, MNA) that is not accounted for by our environmental problem indicator, project success rates, or other Bank lending. 14

Input: renewable energy, that are now covered by other projects; and (b) government needs support to lead coordination of the development response across multiple operations. The project will have five components. **Component 1: Social and Economic Services and Infrastructure (US$191.5 million equivalent)** 23. **This component will support the construction, rehabilitation, upgrading, and maintenance of priority basic** **service infrastructure.** Infrastructure investments will benefit both refugees and host community members, supporting the transition roadmap goal of integrating refugees into national education, health, and water supply systems. Component activities will support improved access to services for three million people (66 percent host community members/34 percent refugees). 18 See ICR Report No. ICR00006388, December 3, 2024. 19 World Bank (2022). _Social Cohesion and Forced Displacement: a Synthesis of New Research_ .

Input: **The World Bank** Integrated Community Resilience Project (P506969) PROJECT APPRAISAL DOCUMENT 13. **Refugee-hosting areas such as Obock, Ali Addeh, and Holl Holl, face difficulties in the delivery of key services,** **such as adequate water supply, sanitation, and electricity.** Access to reliable water sources is particularly limited, contributing to health vulnerabilities in both refugee sites and host communities. Carrying water from wells to houses imposes a heavy burden of work on women and children, reducing education opportunities. Similarly, electricity coverage remains inadequate, with many households and public facilities still dependent on unreliable power supply. Geographic isolation, especially in Obock, further compounds these issues, as the region's remote location and underdeveloped infrastructure inhibit service delivery, especially during extreme weather events. Refugees in Djibouti face high levels of food insecurity and malnutrition [12], and the World Food Program (WFP), in partnership with the MoI and UNHCR, provides unconditional food assistance to more than 22,200 people per month in refugee-hosting areas of Djibouti [13] . 14. **Women are disproportionately affected by socio-economic disadvantages in Djibouti, facing significant gaps** **across different dimensions, including access to basic services, education and employment opportunities** .

Input: their surrounding environment. For example, it is expected that SLR will have its most pronounced effects on brackish and freshwater marshes in the coastal zone through alteration of hydrological regimes (Burkett and Kusler, 2000; Baldwin et al., 2001; Sun et al., 2002). Similarly, sea-level rise may not lead to loss of saltmarsh areas since these marshes accrete vertically and maintain their elevation relative to sea level where the supply of sediment is sufficient (Hughes, 2004; Cahoon et al., 2006). WMP indicates the potential for wetlands to migrate landward in response to a 1-meter rise in sea level. The migratory potential is based on a few geophysical characteristics of the coastline: coastal type, topography, tidal range, and other information when available (e.g., whether 14 GLWD coastal wetlands is a term used in this paper to distinguish coastal wetlands from the specific coastal wetlands type in the GLWD. GLWD coastal wetlands type is derived from a number of data sources and categories: ‘Lagoon’ from ArcWorld (ESRI, 1992: referenced in Lehner and Döll 2004); ‘Delta’, ‘Lagoon’, ‘Mangrove’, ‘Estuary’, ‘Coastal Wetland’, and ‘Tidal Wetland’ of WCMC wetlands map (Dugan, 1993; WCMC, 1993; referenced in Lehner and Döll 2004) - see Lehner and Döll (2004)

Input: ### Protection Risk III **Access to work:** 10% of respondents who are unemployed reported challenges in accessing employment, mainly due to language barriers, a lack of opportunities, as well as a lack of education recognition, caring responsibilities for dependents, or a lack of information. Focus group discussions conducted by UNHCR [2] ## highlighted challenges with women accessing 61% employment due to a lack of childcare, Face language barriers in accessing kindergarten places and other childcare employment arrangements, including for school-age children. Given the large proportion of single female caregivers, addressing this challenge will be key to increase access to work for this group and to mitigate protection risks including gender-based violence, human trafficking and exploitation. Women also raised challenges related to language barriers in accessing employment. Specific challenges in accessing quality language courses at the correct level were also raised (high demand for quality B1-level courses). The lack of adequate language skills leads to the inability to upscale professional skills and to seek meaningful employment opportunities matching qualifications. When seeking employment through agencies, women reported cases of labour exploitation with jobs that often involve long working hours, no breaks, no social protection coverage, and no annual leave. From protection monitoring,

Input: estimation strategy assumes similar trends over time across the treatment (close to mines) and control group (far away from mines), in absence of the gold mining expansion. While this assumption cannot be tested using our dataset, previous analyses have found evidence for parallel pre-trends in infant mortality and night lights (Benshaul-Tolonen, 2019) for gold mining countries in West and East Africa (including Ghana). The baseline differences in observable characteristics – in particular, lower levels of economic development preceding the mine opening - indicate that a cross sectional approach using only the post-period may not be sufficient to understand the impact of gold mining on socio-economic variables. **Table 2 Summary statistics for women’s survey** (1) (2) (3) (4) Before mining During Mining >20 km <20 km >20 km <20 km Mean Coefficient Mean Coefficient _Woman Characteristics_ Age 28.79 0.836 28.95 -0.352 Total children 2.18 0.417* 2.56 -0.035 Wealth 3.85 -0.619** 3.33 -0.028 Nonmigrant 0.32 0.123** 0.33 -0.028 Urban 0.62 -0.300** 0.49 -0.150** No education 0.17 -0.045 0.20 -0.042** <3 years education 0.77 0.035 0.74 0.045** 15

Input: impact of property rights insecurity arising from overlapping land rights rather than comparing titled and untitled land. We do so for the case of Uganda, a country where overlapping property rights, many of them established a long time ago, are very common. This, together with the ability to rely on a large nationally representative household survey, allows us to go beyond the existing literature in three respects. First, while the historical genesis of overlapping rights makes it unlikely that such arrangements were chosen based on comparing the cost and benefits of different contractual forms, our ability to apply household level fixed effect estimation techniques to a large sample of (owner-cum-occupant) households who simultaneously operate own and usufruct parcels allows us to avoid many of the biases that have characterized cross sectional estimates in the past. Second, the existence of laws aiming to eliminate investment disincentives arising from overlapping property rights enables us to assess whether, and if yes to what extent, such laws have achieved their objective. This provides lessons on the scope to reduce underinvestment associated with insecure tenure through (legislative) means that stop short of changing the land ownership structure. Finally, information on tenants’ willingness to purchase residual

Input: scenario as given, and assess the _exposure_ of the present wetland stock for each of the 76 developing countries and five regions. Second, the digital elevation (90m DEM V2) data we use in our analysis gives altitude in 1-meter increments, preventing us from sub-meter SLR modeling. [13] Third, the lack of resolution of spatial data of the wetlands and digital elevation higher than 90 m prevented us from including small islands in our analysis. Fourth, our analysis does not estimate potential destruction of wetlands from 13 One can interpolate the elevation data we have used for sub-meter SLR modeling, but in that case, precision of the estimates would be difficult to justify. The potential use of LIDAR survey (laser-based elevation measurement from low-flying aircraft) was beyond the scope of our analysis. 5

For a trend analysis, we divide the data into seven periods: 1877-1900, 1901-1920, 1921-1940, 1941-1960, 1961-1980, 1981-2000 and 2001 2016. Table 1 and Figure 1 provide two trend measures for cyclonic storm frequencies since 1877: storms/year for each period, and the two-period moving average of storms/year. The first measure displays no trend through 1960, a large increase during the period 1961-1980, and a decline from 3 Some storm tracks that approach at oblique angles intersect the coastline two or more times. 5

Input: Despite the possible gains in wages for wage earners, we note a decrease in the regionally deflated total household expenditure (column 5), and a decrease in per capita expenditure on food and nonfood items (column 4). The increase in wages but decrease in total expenditure can possibly be explained by rising prices and wages in mining communities, where everyone has to pay the higher prices but only some (those who earn wages), benefit from a rise in wage rate. Columns 6 through 9 of table 12 look at nondeflated expenditure measures for food, housing, health and education, and household energy. [17] We confirm that total household expenditure on food decreases (compared with the per capita deflated measure in column (4)), but find that households spend more money on housing, transport, and communication, and household energy, such as electricity and gas. The electricity and gas expenditure is only for those who have any positive expenditure on these, and we saw earlier that electricity access changes with the mine. This confirms that, among those who spend anything on electricity, they spend more on it in mining communities. **Table 12 Using GLSS: Household income and expenditure** (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7)

Input: data section for details. 11 The IPCC’s Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) projects increased SLR between 0.18m and 0.59m across various emission scenarios over the next 100 years. However, this range has been criticized by many experts as being too conservative and not sufficiently reflective of the large uncertainty pertaining to SLR (Krabill _et al_ ., 2004; Overpeck _et al_ ., 2006; Rahmstorf, 2007). The most recent evidence suggests that sea-level rise could reach 1 meter or more during this century (Hansen and Sato, 2011; Vermeer and Rahmstorf 2009; Pfeffer et al., 2008). The IPCC itself pointed out that its projections did not include changes within the polar ice sheets. The IPCC noted that the upper values of projected sea level rise presented in its report are not to be considered upper bounds and that higher rises in sea level cannot be ruled out. 12 These being the five regions used by the World Bank: East Asia and Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Latin America and Caribbean, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa 4

Input: the efficiency of disbursement to communities, address payment delays, and improve the timeliness of financial reporting and accountability; (b) MoF and BoU are strengthening internal control mechanisms around TSA payments to ensure the correct beneficiaries are paid; and (c) MoFPED has set up regional centers for local governments to go to if they face network problems and unstable electricity to use the IFMIS to account for project funds. MoFPED has also provided budget to local governments to purchase fuel for generators to manage power cuts. The IFMIS, the use of a consolidated fund, and payments to beneficiaries using the TSA at BoU have significantly enhanced accountability at the local government level. This is reflected in the Auditor General’s report for 2022/23 and 2023/24, where all 22 local governments involved in project implementation had an unqualified (clean) audit opinion except for Ntoroko district, which had a qualified opinion.

Input: which calls for systematic mainstreaming of adaptation measures in project design and implementation. Jya Mbere II will also align with the GoR’s National Adaptation Plan of Action (2006), Third National Communications to the United Nations Climate Change Conference in 2018 and its Updated Nationally-Determined Contributions (NDC) 2020, in which it commits to mainstream environmental sustainability and climate change adaptation efforts. Rwanda’s Updated NDC includes a conditional commitment to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 16 percent by 2030 relative to a business as usual (BAU) scenario, and an unconditional commitment to reduce GHG by an additional 22 percent by 2030 relative to the BAU scenario. The project does not hinder this mitigation goal by ensuring that all infrastructure subprojects will be subject to climate risk assessments and will comply with climate-resilient standards. Finally, the project will support implementation of key recommendations from the 2022 Rwanda Country Climate and Development Report, such as investing in the water sector (including flood control and water storage), renewable energy sources and climate-smart agriculture. The results framework will track the number of infrastructure subprojects constructed/upgraded to climate-resilient standards. 71. _Assessment and reduction of mitigation risks_ .

Input: As part of a regional Protection Profiling and Monitoring exercise, UNHCR collects and analyses on a quarterly basis data about the profiles, protection risks, and needs of refugees from Ukraine in Czechia, through individual interviews and focus group discussions with diverse groups. The key findings are highlighted below. #### Protection Risk I **Access to Temporary Protection (TP):** 98% of the respondents are holders of Temporary Protection in Czechia. Only 1% (five individuals) provided that their application for Temporary Protection was pending, whilst also 1% (four individuals) did not apply for Temporary Protection in Czechia. The reasons being, that they applied for refugee status, did not meet the eligibility criteria, did not stay in the country, or had since transitioned to a different legal status. Overall, access to Temporary Protection in Czechia continues to remain high. of respondents (55 individuals) reported facing some challenges with the Temporary ## 13% Protection application or extension process. In line with previous reports, the main challenges related to applying for Temporary Protection were long waiting times to receive a decision (44%), a lack of required documents (such as ID or proof of address) to complete the registration process (40%), and, despite its overall decrease in

Input: ###### **III.2 Country level analysis** The impacts of SLR on coastal wetlands were also estimated for individual countries. Table 2 summarizes our results by presenting the 10 most vulnerable countries. Estimates indicate large effects of SLR on coastal wetlands are much more concentrated in some countries than others. The 5 most vulnerable countries are: Viet Nam, Argentina, Iran, China and Mexico that represent 77% of the total freshwater marshes at risk from a 1 m SLR. Vietnam is by far the most vulnerable country with close to 65% of its freshwater marshes at risk. For vulnerable GLWD Coastal Wetlands, the top-ranked country China accounts for 56% of GLWD Coastal Wetlands” at risk. Of all vulnerable saline wetlands, Libya, Egypt, Mauritania, India and Argentina account for 93%, with Libya and Egypt representing 61%. Also within the regions, vulnerability is clearly far from balanced across countries. Viet Nam represents 85.1% of all vulnerable freshwater marshes and China represents 79.1% of all vulnerable GLWD Coastal Wetlands within EAP. Within MENA, 92.7% of all regional vulnerable saline wetlands are in Libya and Egypt. On the whole, our results suggest a significant asymmetry in the burden of SLR on wetlands: a small number of developing

Input: **The World Bank** Costa Rica Results in Education (CORE) (P181174) in OECD countries, and few students enroll in tracks in high demand in the labor market, such as STEAM and digital skills. [13] Quality TVET could play a pivotal role in developing skills that are directly relevant to the labor market and in creating an adaptable workforce. 7. **Costa Rica is undergoing a TVET reform to better align it to the needs of the current and future labor market,** **emphasizing skills for the technology sector and green jobs** . The recently initiated reform includes efforts to revitalize entry into the labor market by targeting support for youth and adults. Participants complete their education certification, and a proposed program of micro-credentials promises further improvement on employability, seeking to align skills provision to labor demand through both the secondary level and vocational training courses and dual modality education offered by INA. As the global landscape shifts towards sustainability, there is likely to be a growing demand for a workforce equipped with expertise in green technologies, renewable energy, environmental sciences, and sustainable practices. Accessing skillsets in these areas requires strong foundational learning, cognitive and digital competencies. Possible green jobs in Costa Rica would

Input: the increasing influx (Kemp and Kritzman 2008). In the past, Israel has recognised groups of refugees and asylum seekers as a gesture of goodwill. Notable examples of such ̳humanitarian anomalies‘ are the decision to grant refuge to a few hundred Vietnamese boat-people in the end of the 1970s and to admit a group of Muslim Bosnian refugees during the 1990s. (Ben-Dor and Adut 2003, 21-22; Markowitz 1996). Following its withdrawal from South Lebanon in 2000, Israel admitted nearly 6,000 members (and their families) of the South Lebanese Army, a sectarian militia who collaborated with Israel during its occupation of South Lebanon. Such precedents, coupled with public pressure, led former Prime Minister (PM) Olmert to grant an exceptional temporary residency to approximately 500 Darfurian asylum seekers in September 2007 (Mualem 2007). Israel historically handled asylum requests by outsourcing the process to UNHCR, using the assistance of the agency‘s honorary correspondent in Israel, which later became an official representative office (UNHCR 2007) It was only in 2001, 50 years 6 Driven by the horrors of the Holocaust in Europe and aiming to protect the Jewish refugees from World War II the young state of Israel was among the first 26 states who

Input: sources and vintages of imagery. To guide the identification of slums, previous work has provided information on the appearance and geographical extent of slums in HCMC. Surveys of poverty in the city find the appearance of slums in HCMC to be characterized as densely built small households and shelters that have predominantly semi-permanent character (Habitat for Humanity 2008). In terms of geographic extent, many slums are located in certain districts (districts 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 12, Binh Thanh, Go Vap, Tan Phu) and along the Saigon River (e.g. Kenh Te, Rach Ben Nghe, Thi NgheNhieu Loc Canal, Kenh Doi, Thi Nghe Canal, Lo Gom, and Canala) (Horsley 2004; De Lay 2011; Habitat for Humanity 2008). Taking into account these spatial and geographic characteristics, the PUMA data set interprets Google Earth imagery to produce two layers of potential slum areas (PUMA 2013): areas with defined borders (polygon-data) and potential slum areas without (point-data) defined borders. In the latter case, we applied a circular buffer of 50 m around each

Input: availability of fresh water and sediment, and the salinity of soil and groundwater (Belperio, 1993; Semeniuk, 1994; Blasco et al., 1996; Alongi, 2008). [8] Even though location-specific studies are needed to define the specific details, experts and scientists agree that adaptation of wetlands to future sea-level rise depends on its success in landward progression and is conditioned by the availability of adequate and suitable space for expansion/ migration, and a rate of sea level rise that is not greater than the rate at which wetlands can migrate. [9] This paper is an effort to quantify the coastal wetlands of different types [10] at risk from 1 m SLR [11] in 76 developing countries and territories in the five regions [12] of the world. Our estimates take into account the exposure of wetlands derived from the recent GLWD-3 database to 1 m SLR and the estimated capacity of the coastline to retreat and for coastal wetlands ecosystems to move (or migrate) inland as the coastline is receding. Attempts have also been made to estimate the economic loss, which may be associated with adversely impacted wetlands. Our estimates indicate that a 1 m rise in sea level would lead to a loss

Input: associated with them will lose their services. Wetlands in WMP category 4 are at great risk, but may survive, depending on the effect of flooding behind the coastline. If the flooding is severe enough and persists long enough to seriously disrupt the trapping of the sediment or building upon the peat the sediment creates, the wetlands will be severely degraded and may perish. Hence, the wetlands in WMP categories 3 and 4 exposed to the inundation zone for 1 meter SLR are the estimates of wetlands at inundation risk in a changing climate. ##### **Results** For the 76 coastal developing countries and territories included in this analysis, estimates indicate more than 60% of freshwater marsh, GLWD Coastal Wetlands, and brackish/saline wetlands (henceforth saline wetlands for brevity) might be lost as a result of a 1m SLR. In terms of area estimates, this would translate to a loss of 16,492 square kilometer of freshwater marsh, 17,421 square kilometer of GLWD Coastal Wetlands and 10,969 square kilometer of saline wetlands. Among the four coastal wetland categories, only swamp forests appear less vulnerable to SLR and more capable of migrating as the coast line is receding and henceforth dropped from further analysis [19]

Input: University of Kassel, Germany, and the World Wildlife Fund US (WWF-US), Washington DC, USA (Lehner and Döll, 2004). In the generation of the global map of lakes and wetlands from a grid at a spatial resolution of 30 seconds (approximately 1km by 1km at the equator), the GLWD-3 followed the definition of wetlands adopted at the Ramsar Convention, the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Our analysis focuses on freshwater marsh, swamp forests, GLWD Coastal Wetlands [14] and Brackish/ saline wetlands. _Response of wetlands to SLR_ . In order to assess the impact of SLR on wetlands and the potential for adaptation, the wetland migratory potential (WMP) characteristic in the Dynamic Interactive Vulnerability Assessment (DIVA) database from the DINAS-COAST project has been used (Vafeidis et al, 2008). Different types of wetlands are expected to have different migratory potential depending on their own natural characteristics as well as the characteristics of their surrounding environment. For example, it is expected that SLR will have its most pronounced effects on brackish and freshwater marshes in the coastal zone through alteration of hydrological regimes (Burkett and Kusler, 2000; Baldwin et al., 2001; Sun et al., 2002). Similarly, sea-level rise may not lead to loss

Input: US$ per month, [14] significantly below that by non-agriculturalists (45 US$ per month), pure owners are better off than the rest in terms of total land owned (9.5 vs. 3.2 acres for owner-cum-occupants), the value of own land, livestock, and non-land assets (US$ 4,011, 968 and 1733 vs. 1651, 227, and 1252, respectively), and overall welfare as measured by per capita income (US$ 226 vs. 193). Third, while crop productivity [15] for pure occupants is not significantly different from that for pure owners (US$ 95.3 vs. US$ 96.7 per acre) it is below that achieved by owner-cum-occupants (US$ 110.8/ac.). While pure owners have access to more land than owner-cum-occupants, there is no significant difference in the amount of land cultivated by the two groups during the 2004/5 agricultural season. Pure occupants cultivated significantly less land than any of the two other groups and, as a result, derived a much larger share of their income (42%) from wage employment, as compared to mixed farmers (24%) and pure owners (30%). Finally, with only 16.5% of households and 9.5% of women knowing about the 1998 Land Act, legal awareness remains low. **3.2 Parcel level characteristics** Tables 2 and 3 provide evidence on physical

Input: Chi Minh City In addition to the flood hazard maps developed for this study as described above, we use an additional set of maps produced specifically for HCMC. 2 These uncertainties largely arise from climate models; global climate models (GCMs) struggle to represent the physical processes that produce extreme rainfall. Indeed even in higher resolution regional climate models (RCMs), heavy rainfall events are poorly represented. As a result the modeled rainfall data must be ‘corrected’, in order to render it realistic. The fact that the underlying models themselves cannot represent flood driving rainfall means that there is little confidence in the projections that they produce. Moreover, at the national scale there is very little river gauge data available in Vietnam. Therefore rainfall-runoff models, required to transform rainfall projections into river discharge values, would be largely un-calibrated. This adds an additional source of significant modeling uncertainty to the model cascade. The combination of poorly represented extreme rainfall in climate models, coupled with uncalibrated rainfall-runoff models, would largely render any projections of future flood hazard impractical, owing to the significant uncertainties that arise.

Input: the wealth of the farmers. If farmers become poorer because of bad rainfall, CRRA utility would suggest that they would be even more risk averse the next year as a second shock would cause greater disutility. I start by examining whether there is actual autocorrelation in the rainfall data. To test for autocorrelation, I create a panel of various rainfall indicators for the period 1961–2004 for each weather station. For each indicator, I run a regression of six lags of the variable on the current value, including weather

Input: between 132 million and 587 million poor people are exposed to flood risks (depending on which poverty definition is used). About 1.2 billion flood-exposed people live in lower- and uppermiddle-income countries. Taking into account the income levels of flood exposed populations is particularly important, as income is a relatively reliable proxy for people’s ability to mitigate, withstand, cope with, and recover from floods. For instance, while a large share of the Dutch population lives in flood risk areas, large-scale investments in flood protection infrastructure have enabled them to mitigate risks. Similarly, flood exposed populations in Canada or Japan are more likely to have access to rapid government support systems in post-disaster situations compared to people in Malawi or Bangladesh. Thus, action to strengthen disaster prevention and recovery capacity is most urgently needed in the hotspots where poverty and flood exposure coincide. References Braese, J., S. De Vries Robbe, J.

This paper conducts a Bstress-test^ and examines the exposure of the population and poor people in particular to current and future flooding in Vietnam and specifically in Ho Chi Minh City. We develop new high-resolution flood hazard maps at 90 m horizontal resolution, and combine this with spatially-explicit socioeconomic data on poverty at the country and city level, two datasets often kept separate. The nationallevel analysis finds that a third of today’s population is already exposed to a flood, which occurs once every 25 years, assuming no protection. For the same return period flood under current socioeconomic conditions, climate change may increase the number exposed to 38 to 46% of the population (an increase of 13–27% above current exposure), depending on the severity of sea level rise. While poor districts are not found to be more exposed to

Input: **1. Introduction** Recurrent cyclonic storms in the Bay of Bengal inflict massive losses on the coastal regions of Bangladesh and India. Extensive research has investigated the incidence, power and impacts of cyclones in Bangladesh (Ali 1999; Dasgupta et al. 2014; Hoque 1992; Khalil 1992), India (Mishra 2014; Srivastava et al. 2000) and the Bay of Bengal more generally (Bhaskar Rao 2001; Dash et al. 2004; Mandke and Bhide 2003; Mooley and Mohile 1983; Mooley 1980; Muni Krishna 2009; Rao 2002; Yu and Wang 2009). This paper attempts to extend the previous work in several ways. First, we focus on the historical frequency and locations of cyclone strikes to inform household- and community-level research on adaptation to past and expected future cyclones. Previous studies of coastal community adaptation in the region have focused on responses to specific cyclones or generally-defined coastal hazards (Brouwer et al. 2007; Khalil 1993; Khan et al. 2015; Mallick et al. 2011; Mallick and Vogt 2013; Shameem and Momtaz 2014; Siddiqui et al. 2013; Sultana and Mallick 2015). With the notable exception of Dasgupta et al. (2016), these studies have seldom used household-level data to assess the impacts of past cyclones on communities and households, as well

Input: of which will be supported by Jya Mbere II. 9. **Climate change poses risks to Rwanda’s positive economic outlook and refugees are particularly vulnerable** **to climate shocks** . Ranked 112 out of 185 countries in the 2021 Notre Dame-Global Adaptation Index (ND-GAIN), Rwanda is vulnerable to flooding, heat, drought, and landslides, which are expected to increase in frequency and severity. The country has already experienced a temperature increase of 1.4°C since 1970, higher than the global average; and an increase of up to 2.0°C is expected by the 2030s. The need for urgent action to address climate change impacts was highlighted by severe flooding and landslides in May 2023 that claimed many lives, destroyed homes and infrastructure and affected livelihoods. Rwanda’s high dependence on rain-fed agriculture, as well as the need to improve road networks, health facilities and water resource management all contribute to climate vulnerability. [10] The location of Rwanda’s refugee camps on rural hilltops makes them vulnerable to extreme weather events such as flooding and associated landslides. High population density in the camps and the limited capacity of refugees to adapt to the impacts of climate change exacerbates their vulnerability. Despite the protracted nature of displacement, refugee camps

Input: (GSS). [2] Point coordinates (global positioning system [GPS]) for the surveyed DHS clusters [3] allow us to match all individuals to one or several mineral mines. We do this in two ways. First, we calculate distance spans from an exact mine location given by its GPS coordinates, and match surveyed individuals to mines. These are concentric circles with radiuses of 10, 20, and 30 kilometers (km), and so on, up to 100 km and beyond. In the baseline analysis where 2 The data was shared by Aragón and Rud (2013) 3 Both the DHS and GLSS enumeration area coordinates have a 1-5 km offset. The DHS clusters have up to 10km displacement in 1% of the cases. 7

Input: is the World Bank's Country Policy and Institutional Assessment (CPIA) database, which rates environmental policies and institutions on a numerical scale of 1 (the lowest) to 6. For this exercise, we reverse the scaling (1 becomes the highest) and normalize the ratings so that countries with the greatest problems score 100. To proxy the scale of the problems confronted by environmental institutions, we compute the mean value of our five thematic indicators (global emissions, pollution, natural resource degradation, biodiversity threats, water-related problems). [5,6] To assure equal weighting 4 Our index of demand pressure also provides a useful proxy for economic damage from drought conditions. We are indebted to our colleagues in the Bank’s Middle East / North Africa region for this observation. 5 While the CPIA ratings provide useful information for comparing institutional needs, they are not sufficient for judging investment priorities because they do not account for differences in the scale of environmental problems faced by a country's institutions. If Brazil and Bhutan receive the same CPIA rating, for example, ignoring their scale difference will lead to assignment of identical lending in the optimization model. 6 We recognize that an equal-weighted index is only one of numerous plausible indicators

Input: 26.9 percent in Markazi, and 46 percent in Djibouti-Ville. [10] Livelihood opportunities in refugee villages are scarcer than in the capital, exacerbating food security challenges, and even highly educated refugees struggle to find employment, without a command of French. Refugees’ **access to finance** is limited by their lack of inclusion in the national ID system; underdeveloped credit markets; and limited awareness of their right to work. Their self-sufficiency is limited by a lack of access to vocational training, business development support services, and decent jobs [11] .

Input: in housing prices (Daniel, Florax, and Rietveld 2009). In Ho Chi Minh City, for instance, qualitative surveys suggest flood-prone areas can be much cheaper than non-flood-prone areas for the same quality of accommodation (World Bank and Australian AID 2014). Using a household survey in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, Erman et al. (2019) find that flood-prone dwellings are valued at 30 percent less on average than safe ones. Reduced housing prices, then, make it possible for poor people to access housing opportunities that could be out of reach in the absence of risk (Husby et al. 2015). In developing countries with informal markets, land scarcity can be particularly acute and land markets function poorly (Durand-Lasserve, Selod, and Durand-Lasserve 2013). In these places, it may not be the prices that push poor people into risky places but simply the availability of land with appropriate access to jobs and services. Informal settlements are often located in hazard-prone locations such as on hillsides, close to riverbanks, or near open drains and sewers—Pune (India), Dhaka, Caracas, Rio de Janeiro, and Mumbai have many such settlements (Lall and Deichmann 2012; Lall, Lundberg, and Shalizi 2008). 3

Input: farming, either for their own production or as hired workers or sharecroppers on host community land. 4 World Bank (2023). _World Development Report 2023: Migrants, Refugees, and Societies._ Washington, DC: World Bank at p. 208. 5 Poverty rates in refugee-hosting districts during the COVID-19 crisis ranged from 37.7 percent in rural areas to 20.5 percent in urban areas; the overall national poverty rate was 33.2 percent. Headcount poverty rates averaged 39.9 percent in the Northern Region, 26.6 percent in the Western Region, and 20.4 percent in the West Nile. (World Bank. 2022. _Uganda Poverty Assessment Overview – Strengthening Resilience to_ _Accelerate Poverty Reduction in Uganda)._ 6 A study commissioned by the Norwegian Refugee Council revealed that between 2016-2020, 40.3 percent of refugees self-settled in the urban centers of Adjumani, Koboko, Hoima and Mbarara. Steady flows have continued into these locations and Arua, another secondary city, over the last four years: see Office of the Prime Minister and UNHCR (2024) _Uganda Urban Response Strategy 2024-2029_ . 7 The definition used is canopy height >5m.

Input: Economics of Disasters and Climate Change and can be identified from the results of this paper. An important constraint is that for such development to be feasible, they should be paired with transportation investments, which maintain access to the city center where opportunities are presented (World Bank 2015). Despite the potential of risk-sensitive land-use planning, resettlement is the major ex-ante hazard adaptation mechanism employed in Vietnam currently, especially in the Mekong Delta. While such policies can reduce exposure, policy design is critical to ensure the livelihoods of the poor are supported. For instance, surveys in Tan Chau district suggests the resettlement policy enacted in 2002 may have made households worse-off: inadequate financing resulted in households paying for their new settlements out-of-pocket; many households who were farmers and fishers did not have adequate land, transportation and market access, and inadequate livelihood support was provided to them (World Bank 2016). Where resettlement policies are enacted, it is imperative that such policies are paired with livelihood and financing support. Beyond strategies to reduce exposure, other policy options to reduce vulnerability to improve households’ ability to adapt may warrant increased attention. Strategies such as government subsidies for household-level flood protection (like raising of floors),

Input: To show the robustness of these results, we have tried three alternative strategies for each of the outcomes. In row 2, we drop the sample that lives 20 to 40 km away, since they might be affected by the mine; in row 3, we drop the sample that was surveyed two years prior to mine opening; in row 4, we add closest mine fixed effects; and in row 5 we cluster on the closest mine. The coefficients do not change much, even if some magnitudes become bigger and the estimates more significant. However, as in the results using DHS data, these estimates are not precisely measured – few are statistically significant because the standard errors appear large. Women are 7.4 to 10.4 percentage points more likely to work in service or sales if they live close to a mine (depending on the estimations in panel A columns 4, only one statistically significant estimate). Women close to mines are 2.5 to 2.6 percentage points more likely to work in mining (only one statistically significant estimate). Men, on the other hand, (results shown in panel B of table 12), are significantly more likely to work in mining, and insignificantly less in agriculture

Distribution of lost wetlands by types of wetlands across regions, for a 1m SLR** We have also presented the percentage of wetland types at risk by region in Figure 2, which is revealing. Once again, it is apparent that among the various regions, EAP faces the greatest risk of overall loss of wetlands: for a 1 m SLR scenario, 61% and 71% of vulnerable freshwater marsh and GLWD Coastal Wetlands are in EAP. On the other hand, 65% of saline wetlands at risk is in MENA. After EAP, MENA represents the second largest proportion of GLWD Coastal Wetlands at risk (15%). LAC also represents a significant share (18%) of vulnerable freshwater marshes. 12

Input: The second distinctive feature of this exercise is its incorporation of compatible data from different sources. For the period since 1960, we use georeferenced track information on major cyclones striking Bangladesh from the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD). Equivalent information for the Indian coastal region comes from the India Meteorological Department (IMD). For cyclones prior to 1960, we add information from the IBTrACS database maintained by the Global Data Center for Meteorology, operated by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The IBTrACS data for the Indian Ocean have been provided by meteorological institutions in the region. We also use them for a few post-1960 cyclones that are not included in the data available to us from BMD and IMD. We ensure cross-source compatibility by using WMO standards for the two commonly-available measures of storm strength: maximum wind speed (measured in knots (kt)) and radial distance from a storm’s center to its zone of maximum wind speed. We employ a standard IMD storm classification based on maximum wind speed intervals in kt: (Cyclonic Storm (CS) [34-47 kt]; Severe Cyclonic Storm (SCS) [48-63]; Very Severe Cyclonic Storm (VSCS) [64-119] and Super Cyclonic Storm (SuCS) [120+]. We have excluded all storms rated as

Input: of forced displacement, covering refugees and host communities. **III.** **PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION** **A.** **Institutional and Implementation Arrangements** 55. **The project will retain the same arrangements as Phase I**, but with enhanced coordination and collaboration mechanisms under OPM’s DoR. OPM will implement DRDIP II at the national level through a PIST, which will provide technical guidance and support to implementing districts and communities. The PIST will comprise technical experts who will be recruited or seconded from government agencies. Additional expertise can be contracted where necessary. In line with GoU objectives to streamline implementation units within IAs, the PIST will share some technical specialists to support DRDIP II and NUSAF IV. This will reduce costs and enhance coordination on the ground. 56. **The PIST will work in collaboration with OPM structures and under the guidance of an inter-agency PSC**, which will include representatives from the following agencies: Ministry of Finance, Planning, and Economic Development (MoFPED), IG, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development, Ministry of Works and Transport, Ministry of Water and Environment, Ministry of Local Government, Ministry of Gender, Labor, and Social Development, Ministry of Education and Sports, Ministry of Health, National Environment Management Authority, Private Sector Foundation of Uganda, DoR, CRRF Secretariat,

Input: reflect the same rank-order as the lending opportunities in Appendix 1. **9. Interpretation of Results: Ethiopia vs. Nigeria** We provide an illustrative interpretation of our results by comparing the cases of Ethiopia and Nigeria in Table 9.1. Both have been among the Bank’s top borrowers in Sub-Saharan Africa: From 1998-2003, Nigeria borrowed $912 million and Ethiopia borrowed $1,381 million. Among the 48 Sub-Saharan countries, Nigeria’s overall environmental problem indicator ranks first and Ethiopia’s second. Both countries are in the midrange for the OED project success rate (45% for Nigeria; 65% for Ethiopia). After adjusting for success rates, Nigeria’s optimal lending is $144 million and Ethiopia’s is $128 million. 25

In this paper, we have quantified the vulnerable freshwater marsh, swamp forest, GLWD Coastal Wetlands, and brackish/saline wetlands taking into account the exposure of wetlands to 1 m SLR and the estimated capacity of the coastline to retreat and for coastal wetlands ecosystems to migrate inland as the 25 Anthoff et al. (2010) has not reported exposure estimates of coastal wetlands to SLR. 20

Input: **The World Bank** Costa Rica Results in Education (CORE) (P181174) days after the end of each semester. The IFRs will contain: a statement of sources and uses of funds (with expenditures classified by category of expenditures, source of funds) and cash balance; a statement of budget execution per component and subcomponent; and a reconciliation of the Designated Account. The formats of the IFRs and annual financial reports will be included in the POM. **Flow of Funds- Disbursement.** 6. The disbursement methods that may be used for the withdrawal of the proceeds of the loan will include reimbursement; advance; and direct payment. Under the advance method, the project will have access to a Designated Account (DA) to be used exclusively for deposits of loan proceeds in the Central Bank of Costa Rica for eligible expenditures. The deposits into the DA will flow to a specific account into the Borrower ́s Treasury Single Account - TSA ( _Sistema de Cuenta del Sector Publico, SCSP_, by its initials in Spanish), assigned to the Project and managed by MEP. As needed, the PIU will request the MoF to transfer funds from the DA to the project operational account which will be opened in the

There is no change in the likelihood that she is not working. These 5 categories stem from the same occupational variable in the DHS data, and are mutually exclusive. The surveyed individual is told to report their main occupation. The coefficients can therefore be interpreted as relative increases of each specific sector. Women are more likely to earn cash for work, and the likelihood increases
