The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction invites proposals for a project aimed at integrating climate change adaptation and risk reduction in migrant-inclusive health responses in Basra, Iraq. The grant supports the development of a local resilience action plan with a focus on gender-sensitive and human mobility-sensitive approaches

The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction is pleased to invite qualified organizations to submit their respective proposals for the "Harnessing Synergies between Climate Change Adaptation and Risk Reduction in Migrant-Inclusive Health System Responses in Iraq" Project.

Purpose

The overall objective of the joint programme is to contribute to strengthening synergies between CCA and risk reduction in the MENA region through mainstreaming a gender-sensitive human mobility lens into national public health adaptation strategies and DRR strategies and enhance understanding of health impacts of climate change among the host and migrant communities in the target countries.

Under this grant, the purpose is to develop a local resilience action plan for a selected city in Basra, Iraq through utilizing UNDRR’s scorecards (the public health system resilience addendum and the disaster resilience scorecard). The local resilience action plan must be developed with direct cooperation and consultation with the local government of the city and other relevant stakeholders.

Funding Information

90,000 USD

Duration

The duration of the proposed project cannot exceed 30 September 2025.

Outcome

The joint programme has three outcomes. This grant is concerned with outcome 2 which focuses on having a new or updated local-level public health adaptation strategy and a DRR strategy which integrates a human mobility lens including a migrant-inclusive approach in the respective target city.

Output
