Expression of Interest For Diagnostic Work For Climate Resilient Urban Development

Expression of Interest are invited for Somalia: Diagnostic Work for Climate Resilient Urban Development. Description: This note sets out the Terms of Reference for city-level diagnostics assessing flood hazard and risk at the neighborhood level and lower, identify pathways for strengthening climate resilience in urban planning and upgrading in Somalia. The study will target the two cities of Mogadishu and Hargeisa as these cities are rapidly urbanizing and are routinely plagued by climate hazards without a clear strategy for building resilience against these shocks. It aims to enhance resilience to a broader range of shocks, establish stronger links to urban and land use planning, and implement actions and risk management strategies that protect residents against the consequences of these disasters.[1] Mogadishu (capital city of Somalia) has a Drainage Master Plan, developed in 2018 by the Government implemented assignment, which provides a pragmatic assessment of drainage issues achieved without extensive modelling, and drainage system design based on simple calculations for run-off and capacity, and basic engineering principles. The assessment has yielded extensive plan that provides an excellent starting point for detailed design and implementation. However, there has not been a quantified risk assessment, and therefore no systematic and defendable way of estimating losses, damages or other impacts, or benefits, or means of justifying and prioritizing some interventions over others. Hargeisa (second largest city in Somalia, after Mogadishu), have not specifically been the focus for any flood risk assessment or analysis.
