PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project will support 3 pilot cities of Dong Hoi, Can Tho and Tam Ky, selected to represent the range of municipal administrations in Viet Nam, to adopt Urban Cooling Action Plans (UCAPs), develop pre-FS reports for pilot projects and unlock municipal budgets for extreme heat and cooling. Interventions will include improved urban design, nature-based solutions, passive cooling measures, municipal incentives, district cooling and public procurement. To unlock finance for UCAP implementation, a cooling fund is proposed to integrate to the existing fund (e.g. Environmental Protection Fund) and contributions sought from public budgets and international donors.
