According to bank documents, the original project objective was to support the recovery of livelihoods and infrastructure in flood and drought affected areas and strengthen capacity for disaster preparedness nationwide. No revision to the original PDO is envisaged for the additional funding. The overall objective of the additional funding, to respond to immediate food insecurity needs, is covered adequately by the parent project’s PDO to support the recovery of livelihoods and infrastructure in flood and drought affected areas and strengthen capacity for disaster preparedness nationwide.
The key proposed changes under the project entail the inclusion of a food insecurity specific project component.
Component 6: Anticipatory and Recovery Support for Addressing Food Insecurity: This component will include the following two subcomponents:
Subcomponent 6a: Anticipatory Action and Early Response Support to Food Insecure Communities (US$ 22.5 million). This will include: (a) Immediate Rehabilitation of Small-Scale Community Irrigation and Water Supply Infrastructure, and; (b) Immediate Provision of Fishing Inputs and Infrastructure to Coastal Communities, and related training and awareness. These activities will be undertaken using the ‘Inputs for Assets’ approach under which agricultural and fishing inputs will be provided to communities in return for their participation in water and fisheries infrastructure. This component will also retain the option of providing agricultural and fishing inputs unconditionally to more vulnerable groups or if otherwise warranted by local circumstances.
Subcomponent 6b: Medium-term Sustainable Recovery and Resilience of Food Insecure Communities (US$ 22.5 million equivalent). This will include the rehabilitation and reconstruction of: (a) Larger Drought-Mitigating Water and Irrigation Infrastructure; (b) Fishing Coastal Community Infrastructure and Value Chain Resilience, and; (c) capacity building, training and awareness building of government and communities for recovery planning, scheme design, operation and maintenance and technical oversight for the planned water and fishery infrastructure works, and operation and
maintenance under clear ownership and management arrangements. This component will employ routine design and contracting methods while maximizing the use of labor-intensive methods, where
applicable.
Additional Allocation to SCRP Project Management Component (US$ 5 million equivalent). An additional allocation of US$ 5 million will be made to the original SCRP project management component
(Component 4: US$5 million) to cover the costs of project implementation and management for the AF. The revised of the SCRP project component will thus become US$ 11 million.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF THE WORLD BANK
The World Bank Inspection Panel is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by a World Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Inspection Panel, they may investigate to assess whether the World Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can contact the Inspection Panel or submit a complaint by emailing ipanel@worldbank.org. Information on how to file a complaint and a complaint request form are available at: https://www.inspectionpanel.org/how-to-file-complaint
