The project will implement integrated water resources management (IWRM) focusing on upstream downstream linkages and urban rural integration for the restoration of the Tuan River. The project design will incorporate lessons from previous ADB-financed projects and policy-oriented studies on IWRM, environmental and ecosystem improvement, wetland and lake management and restoration, and urban rural integration in the PRC and other developing member countries. The project will have three outputs: (i) urban and rural water infrastructure in Dengzhou City improved; (ii) ecological zones in Han River restored; and (iii) water resources management capacity enhanced. These outputs will result in the following outcome: water security and environmental sustainability in Dengzhou City improved. The project will have the following impact: living standards in the Yangtze River Economic Belt improved (Yangtze River Economic Belt Development Plan, 2016 2030)

| Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | Being one of the poorest cities in the Yangtze River Basin, Dengzhou City urgently requires improving water resources management as a driver for socioeconomic growth, and its development needs to be aligned with the national ecological civilization objectives as set forth in the PRC's Thirteenth Five-Year Plan, 2016 2020. As part of the rural vitalization objective set by the government to enhance livelihoods, attract investments, and accommodate the growing population, DCG will support local towns, and villages in development planning and implementation. However, Dengzhou City needs to improve its institutional and technical capacities to achieve the targets. Dengzhou City in the middle Yangtze River Basin and in less-developed region, can demonstrate an environmentally-sustainable growth model that can be replicated in other cities in the Yangtze River Basin and in the PRC. | ||||
| Impact | Quality of life along Yangtze River Economic Belt improved (National Strategic Plan for Rural Vitalization, 2018 2022; and Yangtze River Economic Belt Development Plan, 2016 2030)a | ||||
