Resumen
Descripción
Man-made climate change is affecting
water infrastructure in all regions of the world, affecting
large numbers of people in their daily life and the
development of their societies. As part of the World Bank
Water Anchor's analytical and advisory work on water
and climate change, consultants have investigated how
private sector services to infrastructure may address the
challenges related to climate change while, at the same
time, improving development opportunities for people. This
report, which is one of the outcomes of the work, addresses
the role of private providers of non-financial climate
change-related services with relevance for water
infrastructure. This report investigates to need for
additional services with regard to climate change and
analyzes the potential for the private sector in providing
these services. The analysis focuses on the water sectors
likely to be affected by climate change, that is, water
resources management, irrigation and drainage, hydropower,
coastal protection, flood protection, urban water supply,
and sanitation as well as water quality. In addition,
opportunities for mutual engagement of public and private
agencies are analyzed and the perspectives of market
development are explored. The central aim of the report is
to deepen our understanding of the opportunities for
engaging private providers of climate change services in
climate change adaptation combined with socioeconomic
development opportunities.
