Social funds, social protection systems and safety nets, community-driven development (CDD) projects, livelihoods-support and related operational platforms can serve as useful vehicles for promoting community-level resilience to disaster and climate risk. This paper examines the World Bank's Community-Driven Development (CDD) portfolio to assess experience to date and to explore the potential for building the resilience of vulnerable communities to climate and disaster risk through CDD programs. It aims to be useful to both the Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Management practitioner as well as the CDD practitioner. The paper assesses the scale of climate and disaster resilience support provided through CDD projects from 2001-11 and characterizes the forms of support provided. For the climate change adaption and disaster risk management (DRM) practitioner, it discusses the characteristics of a CDD approach and how they lend themselves to building local-level climate resilience. For the CDD practitioner, the paper describes the types of activities that support resilience building and explores future directions for CDD to become a more effective vehicle for reducing climate and disaster risk.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO INFORMATIONACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGEAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITYAGRICULTURAL SECTORAGRICULTURAL SERVICESAID AGENCIESARID LANDSBIOLOGICAL CONTROLCAPITAL COSTCASH TRANSFERSCATASTROPHIC EVENTSCLEAN WATERCLIMATECLIMATE ADAPTATIONCLIMATE ADAPTATION ACTIVITIESCLIMATE CHANGECLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATIONCLIMATE CHANGE DEBATECLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTSCLIMATE CHANGE INFORMATIONCLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATIONCLIMATE CHANGE PROBLEMCLIMATE CHANGE RESPONSECLIMATE CHANGESCLIMATE IMPACTSCLIMATE INFORMATIONCLIMATE INVESTMENTCLIMATE PROOFINGCLIMATE RESILIENCECLIMATE RISKCLIMATE RISK MANAGEMENTCLIMATE RISKSCLIMATE SCENARIOCLIMATE SCIENCECLIMATE SCIENCE COMMUNITYCLIMATE TRENDSCLIMATE VARIABILITYCLIMATE-RELATED DISASTERSCOCOLORSCOMBAT CLIMATE CHANGECOMMERCIAL AGRICULTURECOMMUNITY ACTIONCOMMUNITY GROUPSCOMMUNITY INSTITUTIONSCONFLICTCROP PRODUCTIONCYCLONESDELIVERY MECHANISMDISASTERDISASTER EMERGENCIESDISASTER MANAGEMENTDISASTER MITIGATIONDISASTER MITIGATION PROJECTDISASTER PREPAREDNESSDISASTER PREPAREDNESS EFFORTSDISASTER PREPAREDNESS PLANSDISASTER RECOVERYDISASTER REDUCTIONDISASTER RESPONSEDISASTER RISKDISASTER RISK FINANCINGDISASTER RISK REDUCTIONDRAINAGE SYSTEMSDRINKING WATERDROUGHTEARLY WARNINGEARLY WARNING SYSTEMEARLY WARNING SYSTEMSEARTHQUAKEEARTHQUAKESECONOMIC BENEFITSECONOMICS OF ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGEEMERGENCIESEMERGENCY NEEDSEMERGENCY RESPONSEEMISSIONSEMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESEROSION CONTROLERUPTIONEXTREME EVENTEXTREME EVENTSEXTREME POVERTYEXTREME WEATHEREXTREME WEATHER EVENTSFARM INCOMEFARM RESEARCHFARM WATERFARMERFINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONSFLOODFLOOD CONTROLFLOOD MANAGEMENTFLOODINGFOOD INSECURITYFOOD SECURITYFORESTFOREST GOVERNANCEFORESTRYFRAMEWORK CONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGEFUTURE CLIMATE SCENARIOSGENDER DIMENSIONSGLOBAL CLIMATEGLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGEGREENHOUSEGREENHOUSE GASGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSHOUSEHOLD WELFAREIMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGEINCOMEINCOME GROWTHINCOME-GENERATING ACTIVITIESINSURANCE MARKETINSURANCE PRODUCTSINTERNATIONAL REINSURANCEINVESTMENT DECISIONSIRRIGATIONLAND MANAGEMENTLANDLESS HOUSEHOLDSLANDSLIDELANDSLIDESLIVELIHOOD SECURITYLIVESTOCK INSURANCELIVESTOCK PRODUCTIONMEDICINESNATURAL DISASTERNATURAL DISASTERSNATURAL HAZARDNATURAL HAZARDSNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUTRITIONOUTBREAKSPER CAPITA CONSUMPTIONPOORPOOR COMMUNITIESPOOR FARMERSPOOR HOUSEHOLDSPOOR PAYPOOR PEOPLEPOOR RURAL AREASPORTFOLIOPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONPOVERTY ASSESSMENTPOVERTY REDUCTIONPOVERTY REDUCTION PROJECTPRECIPITATIONPRIVATE INSURANCEPUBLIC WORKSPUBLIC WORKS PROGRAMSRAINRAINFALLRAINWATERREDUCING POVERTYRISK REDUCTIONRISKS OF CLIMATE CHANGERURALRURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL EMPLOYMENTRURAL HOUSEHOLDSRURAL INFRASTRUCTURERURAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAMRURAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTRURAL INVESTMENTRURAL LIVELIHOODSRURAL POORRURAL POVERTYRURAL POVERTY REDUCTIONRURAL ROADSSAFETYSAFETY NETSSANITATIONSAVINGSSCHOOL FEEDINGSCIENTIFIC CONSENSUSSEASONSILVERSOCIAL ASSISTANCESOCIAL DIMENSIONS OF CLIMATE CHANGESOCIAL FUNDSSOIL EROSIONSPILLOVER EFFECTSSTORMSTORM SURGESSUBSISTENCE FARMERSSURFACE WATERTARGETED SOCIAL SAFETY NETSTARGETINGTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETEMPERATURETROPICSTSUNAMITSUNAMISUNEMPLOYMENTVILLAGE DEVELOPMENTWARMING CLIMATEWATER TREATMENTWEATHER INSURANCEWEATHER PATTERNS10.1596/17553
