Abstract:

The CAS supports the government’s efforts to protect the poor from sudden economic difficulties. The World Bank Group will assist the government in putting in place a national poverty targeting system and operationalizing the conditional cash transfer program. It will support efforts to enhance the impact of development programs in conflict-affected areas in Mindanao and to scale up provision of basic services and livelihood support in communities affected by armed conflict. The Bank will also help mitigate disaster- and climate change-related risks and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in key sectors.
