Climate screening and adaptation review and evaluation procedures

The Bank, in partnership with gCap, is developing a Climate Safeguards System (CSS) as a set of decision-making tools and guides that enable the Bank to screen projects in vulnerable sectors for climate change risks and identify appropriate adaptation measures to reduce vulnerability. The system delivers on a key objective of the Climate risk management and adaptation strategy (CRMA) and Climate Change action plan (CCAP), which is to mainstream climate screening and adaptation in Bank projects.
