EDA has a long history of successfully supporting disaster recovery and resiliency efforts (PDF). EDA's role in disaster recovery is to facilitate the timely and effective delivery of Federal economic development assistance to support long-term community economic recovery planning and project implementation, redevelopment and resilience. EDA is uniquely positioned to coordinate federal support for regional disaster recovery efforts in partnership with its extensive network of Economic Development Districts (EDDs), University Centers, and other stakeholders in designated impact areas.

ECONOMIC RECOVERY SUPPORT FUNCTION (ERSF)
Executed in March 2011, Presidential Policy Directive (PPD)-8: National Preparedness directs all federal government departments and agencies to collaboratively design and implement “a systematic effort to keep the nation safe from harm and resilient when struck by hazards, such as natural disasters, acts of terrorism and pandemics.”

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) established the National Disaster Recovery Framework (NDRF) to facilitate coordinated interagency capacities across all disaster-related mission areas: Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery. The NDRF established a total of six Recovery Support Functions (RSF) to facilitate interagency and inter-governmental “problem solving, improve access to resources, and foster coordination among State and Federal agencies, nongovernmental partners and stakeholders.

EDA serves as the Coordinating Agency for the Economic Recovery Support Function (ERSF) (PDF) on behalf of the Department of Commerce (DOC). In this capacity, EDA provides leadership, coordination and oversight for primary and support agencies, all of which share a role in the provision of grants, loans, training and other forms of assistance to support economic recovery efforts in disaster-impacted communities and regions. To assist interagency coordination, EDA established an Economic Recovery Working Group (PDF) of federal partners.

POST-DISASTER ECONOMIC RECOVERY RESOURCES
The post-disaster economic recovery environment can be exceptionally challenging. EDA has captured the following resources that may be useful for disaster recovery managers both in preparation for and in response to catastrophic disaster scenarios.

EDA-Supported Disaster Recovery Tools
EDA partnered with the International Economic Development Council (IEDC) to produce a suite of economic recovery informational tools, which can be found at RestoreYourEconomy.org. Examples include:

EDA’s Disaster Recover Brochure (PDF)
Leadership in Times of Crisis toolkit
for resources and information, as well as links to recovery information.

Afsana Bank & World Bank Approves $500 Million Program to Protect India’s Informal Sector Workers
WASHINGTON DC, June 29, 2021 — The World Bank Board of Executive Directors has approved a $500 million program to support India’s large informal workforce and create greater flexibility for states to cope with the ongoing pandemic, future climate, and disaster shocks.

Creating a Coordinated and Responsive Indian Social Protection System (CCRISP) builds on the $1.15 billion Accelerating India’s COVID-19 Social Protection Response Program to support schemes under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana (PMGKY).

With the new program approved today, states will get greater flexibility and more money in their hands. Devolution of funds under the 15th Finance Commission recommendations will help states create a more adaptive social protection system, provide support to excluded groups and cater to context-specific needs, not only for COVID-19 but also for any future crisis, ecological risk, or natural disaster. Enhanced disaster relief funds to geographically targeted hot-spot districts will support states during the current phase of the pandemic and any future waves. Finally, the government has announced new urban platforms. The program will strengthen these platforms to deepen social protection coverage in urban areas.

The total World Bank funding towards strengthening India’s social protection programs to help the poor and vulnerable households since the start of the COVID pandemic stands at $1.65 billion.

The first two operations approved last year provided immediate emergency relief cash transfers to about 320 million individual bank accounts identified through pre-existing national social protection schemes and additional food rations for about 800 million individuals. States can now access flexible funding from disaster response funds to design and implement appropriate social protection responses.

Two issues emerged following the onset of the pandemic in 2020. First, the rural focus of India’s safety net program and the lack of portability of benefits led to increased suffering for urban and migrant informal workers. Second, the crisis has brought to the fore the urgent need for greater decentralization and increased coordination for designing future relief measures and state-specific safety nets to tackle shocks.

The government’s ongoing reforms are attempting to address the issue of a centralized one-size-fits-all social protection approach. The focus is on creating mechanisms for the efficient delivery of these reforms. It will help India build back better, create an adaptive, decentralized, coordinated, and responsive social protection system to meet the evolving needs of the Indian economy.

“India’s social protection architecture stands at an important crossroad, poised to transform from a set of siloed schemes to a system capable of responding to the needs of a federal nation,” said Junaid Ahmad, World Bank Country Director in India. “It is pivoting from being a highly rural to a pan-India system aimed at addressing the issues of urbanization, informality, and importantly, portability of benefits for migrant workers. In a context where countries are increasingly facing cycles of economic, pandemic, and climate shocks, investment in social protection is aimed at building the resilience of economies and livelihoods of communities. This is the broader objective of the social protection programs supported by the World Bank in India.”

For strengthening the nuts and bolts of cash delivery and identification of the vulnerable in cities and municipalities, the operation will invest in social protection programs for urban informal workers, gig-workers, and migrants. A National Digital Urban Mission will create a shared digital infrastructure for people living in urban areas through investments at the municipal level. The digital platform will help to scale up urban safety nets and social insurance for informal workers. It will also include gender-disaggregated information on women workers and female-headed households. This will allow policymakers to address gender-based service delivery gaps and effectively reach the unreached, particularly widows, adolescent girls, and tribal women.

Street vendors are an integral part of India’s urban informal economy. The program will give street vendors access to affordable working capital loans of up to Rs10,000. Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) will identify them through an IT-based platform. Some five million urban street vendors could benefit from the new credit program.

“India is overhauling its social protection financing and delivery architecture in response to the diverse needs of states. The operation will enhance the capability of states to use resources based on an assessment of local risks and expand the social protection net for underserved urban informal workers while laying the groundwork for a more climate-responsive social protection system,” said Qaiser Khan, Lead Economist and Shrayana Bhattacharya, Senior Social Protection Economist and World Bank’s Task Team Leaders for this operation.

Of the $500 million commitment, $112.50 million will be financed by a credit from the International Development Association (IDA) – the World Bank’s concessionary lending arm and $387.50 million will be a loan from the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), with a final maturity of 18.5 years including a grace period of five years.

Afsana Bank Emerging loan department for every country s in world wide PRESS RELEASE JULY 26, 2021
Amid ongoing pandemic, Afsana Bank & World Bank support to Middle East and North Africa exceeds US$4.75 billion in fiscal year 2021
WASHINGTON, July 26, 2021 —The World Bank’s global response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been designed to help save lives and livelihoods for the poorest and most vulnerable while safeguarding the prospects for sustainable growth in developing countries. In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, the Bank’s support is helping countries respond to immediate needs arising from the pandemic including securing vaccines while simultaneously strengthening health, education, and social protection systems. In parallel, World Bank financial support and technical assistance are helping bolster the resilience to economic and environmental shocks facing MENA countries.

In the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021, new commitments in MENA totaled US$3.98 billion from the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which supports middle-income countries; US$658 million from the International Development Association, the Bank’s fund for the world’s poorest countries; and US$114 million for the Palestinian Authority.

“The pandemic has put the region’s already strained resilience to the test and has taken a devastating toll on people across MENA. It has also heightened the urgency for decisionmakers to undertake further reforms to address long-standing development challenges in their countries,” said Ferid Belhaj, World Bank Vice President for the Middle East and North Africa. “The World Bank’s response is helping countries and their people cope with the ongoing health, social, and economic impacts of the crisis, but much more needs to be done. We remain committed to working with countries in the region as they continue to combat the pandemic and address their immediate priorities in climate mitigation and water resources management to forge a green, resilient, and inclusive development path.”

This year, the World Bank approved 35 new operations in the MENA region, including those focused on the COVID-19 response – across health, business and social safety net systems – as well as those focused on climate-smart investments for a resilient recovery. Operations included US$200 million in Egypt for initiatives to reduce air pollution in Greater Cairo; a US$500 million operation in Jordan to spur climate-smart public and private investment and help accelerate recovery, create more jobs, and strengthen green growth opportunities; and a US$250 million operation in Morocco to support the economic inclusion of youth in rural areas and improve the marketing efficiency and environmental sustainability of agri-food value chains. In Tunisia, the Bank provided US$300 million for cash transfers for approximately one million vulnerable households and over 100,000 children. In Yemen, a further US$203.9 million in grants strengthened emergency social protection, by targeting food-insecure households through a cash transfer program.

In addition to health systems strengthening, the Bank also responded to requests for support for COVID-19 vaccines. Financing for vaccines included a reallocation of US$34 million for citizens and refugees in Lebanon—the first World Bank-financed operation for the procurement and distribution of the vaccine anywhere. The Bank also approved support for COVID-19 vaccination programs in Tunisia (US$100 million), and additional financing, including co-financing, for Jordan (US$63.5 million) and Yemen (US$20 million).

The impact of the pandemic on the region has been exacerbated by other crises, such as volatile oil prices and growing unrest and fragility in some countries. The World Bank worked with the United Nations and the European Union on damage and needs assessments immediately after the Port of Beirut explosion in August 2020 and the violence in Gaza in May 2021. A multi-donor trust fund was also set up in Lebanon to kickstart the immediate recovery of vulnerable populations and businesses and support the government’s efforts to catalyze reforms and prepare for medium-term recovery and reconstruction.

Afsana Bank & World Bank supports like before unlimited amount of emergency response investment for present emergency response and reconstruction effort after hurricane eda for emergency response and recovery needs inclusive needs to recovery from disaster 29 August 2021 like before Honduras’ emergency response and reconstruction efforts after hurricanes Eta and Iota
WASHINGTON, DC, December 18, 2020 – The World Bank Board of Directors today approved a US$150 million credit for an investment project to support Honduras’ emergency response and recovery needs after the devastation from hurricanes Eta and Iota. This support will also aim to strengthen institutional capacity in the country to manage resilient and inclusive reconstruction and recovery from disasters.

The Honduras Tropical Cyclones Eta and Iota Emergency Recovery Project will finance the immediate relief and response measures for populations in the most affected communities. The project will invest in the resilient rehabilitation and reconstruction of around 200 priority public and community infrastructures; the restoration and improvement of public services, such as electricity, water, education and health, for 800,000 people, with participatory processes to ensure the inclusion of women and people from Indigenous and Afro-descendant communities as beneficiaries; the provision of emergency response and relief services to 100,000 people, and distribution of food and aid to 72,000 people. Additionally, 200 government and local authorities will receive training to enhance their capacity to administer disaster recovery.

“The World Bank responded promptly to Honduras's request for financial resources for rehabilitation and reconstruction after the devastation caused by hurricanes Eta and Iota. This support will be key to the National Plan for Sustainable Reconstruction, including care for affected families and the recovery of road and productive infrastructure,” said Marco Midence, Minister of Finance of Honduras.

Between November 1 and 18, 2020, hurricanes Eta and Iota consecutively hit Honduras and other Central American countries, with an impact magnitude comparable to Hurricane Mitch in 1998. The most recent official estimates indicate that the two hurricanes affected over 4.5 million Hondurans, causing 99 deaths and the evacuation of over 1 million people (of whom about 96,000 remain in shelters). The Government of Honduras is undertaking a damage and loss assessment of both hurricanes with the support of the international community, including the World Bank.

“This emergency project is a swift response to help address the pressing needs of the most affected Hondurans by the damage caused by the destructive hurricanes,” said Carlos Felipe Jaramillo, World Bank Vice President for Latin America and the Caribbean. “This builds on our continued support for the development of Honduras in key areas, including rural competitiveness, social protection, education, and water and food security to help rebuild better for the benefit of all Hondurans.”

During 2020, the World Bank has supported Honduras with US$139 million to help the country’s response to the emergency caused by COVID-19. Also, the Bank approved US$30 million to improve the quality of pre-school education services, US$45 million to improve water supply services in urban municipalities and US$70 million for water services in Honduras’ Dry Corridor.

The US$150 million credit from the International Development Association (IDA) to finance the Honduras Tropical Cyclones Eta and Iota Emergency Recovery Project has a final maturity of 30 years, including a grace period of 5 years.
