📋 Tender Overview
Scope :
The sindh coastal resilience sector project (scrp) will support the development of a prosperous and resilient coastal region. enhancing livelihood opportunities in the coastal region requires simultaneous improvement of the physical environment. scrp will strengthen the building blocks of resilience: the underlying physical and non-physical elements that support the protection, improve health and food security, and enable sustainable development of the communities in the coastal areas.
Sindh province, particularly in the coastal area, faces its own unique pressures and challenges exacerbated by climate change. conditions in the coastal area districts have seen significantly degraded by a confluence of environmental factors. the negative effects have been driven largely by reduced freshwater availability, water pollution upstream, and poor or uncontrolled development. these are now expected to be exacerbated further by rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and sea level rise under climate change. reduced discharge below kotri barrage in recent decades and poor surface water drainage connectivity have reduced freshwater availability and sediment load on the coast, thereby enhancing natural subsidence and increasing saline intrusion, which in turn has caused a loss of agricultural production, vegetation, and land. flooding is an acute risk in the region, including riverine floods, flash flooding, waterlogging, urban flooding, and storm surges, which are expected to increase in future under climate change.
