The specific objectives will be to enhance provincial capacity to deal with periodic flooding by upgrading their flood preparedness and mitigation systems, as well as strengthening coordination within the Basin. The project will support the first phase of a two-stage Flood Protection Program. It will include the following components: a) structural measures; and b) non structural measures consisting of a new institutional framework, upgrading of flood preparedness, early flood warning system and project implementation and administration.
