Describe how any "Investment Mobilized" was identified
Co-financing from European Union includes grant and loan combination, with the total amount of US$5,520,000 The proposed project as designed will
leverage and complement projects and initiatives in the baseline to ensure cohesion and synergy in supporting the GoS. Indicative sources of co-financing
include support by the Higher Council for Environment and Natural Resources, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Sudan
as it relates to their work with IDPs, the European Union-funded project “Natural Resources Management for Sustainable Livelihoods – East Darfur
State” etc. The project will also coordinate and mobilize resources from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria for the Malaria-related
activity to ensure synergies. Discussions with GIZ and USAID are also ongoing for additional leverage of resources. In addition, several World Bank
projects also provide a good baseline for investment mobilized and these include: • The Sustainable Livelihoods for Displaced and Vulnerable
Communities in Eastern Sudan (Phase 2, P158066), of which the project will leverage $1.75M as co-financing to support sustainable livelihoods
activities focusing on displaced and vulnerable communities. The project has worked in Kassala at the same time as SSNRMP1 and have therefore
enabled some relevant cross-learning. • The Sudan Safety Net Project (P148349) in North Kordofan, of which $1.7M is considered co-financing to
support community driven development and safety net interventions (e.g. cash-for-work). • Notably the Sudan Basic Education Development Project
(P167145, with $ 5.0 M as cofinancing) aims to draw linkages to tree planting intitaives, in particular the windbreak and shade tree planting and nursery
development.

Core Indicators
Part II. Project Justification
1b. Project Map and Coordinates
Please provide geo-referenced information and map where the project interventions will take place.
2. Stakeholders
Select the stakeholders that have participated in consultations during the project identification phase:
Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities
Civil Society Organizations
Private Sector Entities
If none of the above,please explain why:
In addition, provide indicative information on how stakeholders, including civil society and indigenous peoples, will be
engaged in the project preparation, and their respective roles and means of engagement.
Stakeholder engagement is central to the design of this project. Key stakeholders will be engaged through community consultations
and the application of the World Bank’s Environmental and Social Management Framework during preparation.
The table below summarizes the key stakeholders and their roles in project preparation. The list is non-exhaustive and will be
completed/confirmed during the project preparation, will be addressed in the stakeholder engagement plan in the project appraisal
document.
Stakeholders Mandate and relevant roles in the project
Higher Council of
Environment and
Natural Resources
HCENR is the central institution responsible for the management, planning, coordination and control of
implementation of policies in the following areas: Land management, Forestry, Wild life, Environment,
Conservation Areas and Rural Development.
Other sectoral ministries will be the Implementing/coordinating Partner for the project interventions regarding
the land degradation and climate change activities through the involvement other relevant project
stakeholders.
Project Coordination
Unit (PCU)
The Project Coordination Unit (PCU) on phase I project implementation is fully staffed and the project is
showing good results on the ground. The State Project Implementation Units (SPIU) and community
organizers focus on reinforcing communities’ abilities to manage community interventions. The sustainability
plan for Phase I gives details to SPIUs and community organizers on how to support communities with
financial sustainability.
Local Governments Local governments will be engaged, including law enforcement that involves local community patrol groups
for established zoning in environmentally sensitive areas, and rehabilitation of degraded or overexploited land
and forest resources.
Communities Communities will be the main actor as well as the main beneficiary of this project. Their active involvement
since the identification/formulation to evaluation of processes and results will be crucial for the success of this
project.
Women and young girls will be specially empowered to be active members/actors of change within their
communities, while ensuring that all members of community (women, men, boys and girls) are benefited by
this intervention.
CSO During preparation stage NGOs mapping will be conducted, a pre-selection of some of them as potential
responsible parties for the implementation/support of on-the-ground activities will be also carried out.
Other agencies and
development donors
Stakeholder engagement plan will be developed during project preparation.
For example, project will complement development partner-led interventions, including those from FAO in
North Darfur, aimed at: (1) ameliorating the impact of refugees and internally displaced people on
environmentally sensitive areas; and (2) alleviating climate impacts on nomadic tribes/traditional people, and
pressures caused by these people on scarce natural resources and livelihoods for enhanced climate resilience.
3. Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment
Briefly include below any gender dimensions relevant to the project, and any plans to address gender in project design (e.g.
gender analysis).
The project will carry out a gender gap analysis during preparation phase and implement measures to enhance gender equality during
project design and implementation. The results framework will be fully gender responsive. The project includes an output/activity
geared at establishing women cooperatives for knowledge sharing, joint marketing and seed bank storage, to reflect the critical role of
women in enhancing community resilience.
The team will work to reflect the views, concerns and recommendations of vulnerable and marginalized groups including women and
pastoralists in the Project Paper.
project core indicators include number of the direct beneficiaries disaggregated by gender - 65,000 of which at least 40 percent are
female
Does the project expect to include any gender-responsive measures to address gender gaps or promote gender equality and
women empowerment? Yes
closing gender gaps in access to and control over natural resources;
improving women's participation and decision-making; and/or
generating socio-economic benefits or services for women.
Will the project’s results framework or logical framework include gender-sensitive indicators?
Yes
4. Private sector engagement
Will there be private sector engagement in the project?
Yes
Please briefly explain the rationale behind your answer.
activities under the project component 2 include engagement with the private sector through procurement of solar PV, small-scale
irrigation infrastructure, and drought resistant varieties. In addition, the project includes a dedicated component geared at promoting
innovative finance technologies and capacities for climate-resilient livelihood options, including with and through the private sector as
a key partner. Among the private sector partners will be micro and small-enterprises in the agriculture and water sector, as well as
micro-credit capital providers and financial intermediaries, including commercial/public banks, to leverage and catalyze additional
private resources and enable long-term financial sustainability of the project results. These elements will be further developed during
the preparation phase.
