| Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | ADB has approved $110 million in investment projects for Nauru since 1991. Given Nauru's limited resources and remoteness and the robust scale of a country program that involves the energy, the information and communications technology, and the transport sectors, innovative solutions are needed to support project management. New approaches are also necessary to help overcome the new management obstacles raised by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the case of the ongoing $79.59 million Sustainable and Climate-Resilient Connectivity Project to build a new port in Nauru, these challenges require the use of high-level technology | ||||
