Health system resiliency for improved SRHR in Bangladesh, Nepal and Vietnam
This project aims to improve comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for marginalized women, children and adolescents in Bangladesh, Nepal and Vietnam. Project activities include: (1) training healthcare workers to provide comprehensive sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and nutrition services that are gender-responsive, adolescent-friendly, and culturally sensitive; (2) raising awareness and promoting supportive households and community environments for comprehensive SRHR; (3) strengthening leadership capacities of government bodies to promote policy changes and planning for resilient health systems responsive to the SRHR needs of women, adolescents and children. In Bangladesh, the project is implemented in the underserved urban areas of Chattogram and is expected to reach a total of 150,000 direct beneficiaries, of which 112,500 women, 450 health workers and 185 key stakeholders. This includes government officials, community leaders, youth leaders, and school teachers. In Nepal, the project is implemented in 12 municipalities across 4 districts in Karnali province. It directly benefits 11,700 children with improved nutrition, 82,080 women of reproductive age with improved comprehensive SRH services and 7,860 mother’s group members and their male partners with better SRHR and nutrition knowledge. In Vietnam, the project is implemented in 15 communes in the province of Son La. It benefits 5,200 children under 5, improving health and nutrition knowledge for 10,000 people, and building capacity for 150 health workers and 80 teachers on comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) and communication skills.

Greater Lumbini Area Development Project
The proposed project will support the Government of Nepal in transforming the Greater Lumbini Buddhist Circuit (GLBC) into a sustainable, inclusive, and competitive cultural tourism destination that encourages longer stays, higher spending, and stronger economic benefits for local communities. Despite Lumbini's global recognition as the birthplace of the Buddha and its UNESCO World Heritage status, the region has yet to realize its full tourism potential. Most visitors currently spend only a few hours at key sites due to limited tourism offerings, weak promotion and branding, and inadequate tourism infrastructure and facilities—resulting in “hit-and-run” tourism with low economic impact.Anchored in Lumbini's spiritual and cultural significance, the project will shift from fragmented, site-specific interventions to a holistic, integrated destination model that improves services, strengthens connectivity, diversifies tourism products, and actively engages communities and the private sector. It will target three main visitor segments: (i) pilgrimage and heritage tourists, by enhancing the visitor experience and developing sites across the GLBC; (ii) cultural travelers visiting the region for whom Lumbini is currently a secondary stop, by improving connectivity, marketing, and product offerings; and (iii) new markets, especially in East and Southeast Asia, through stronger branding and targeted promotion.The proposed project will focus on four priority sites: the Lumbini Master Plan Area—home to the Maya Devi Temple—and three culturally and ecologically significant locations: Tilaurakot (ancient Kapilvastu), Devdaha (maternal home of Queen Maya Devi), and Ramgram (the only intact relic stupa containing the Buddha's remains). Site selection is based on cultural and historical significance, tourism potential, and alignment with recommendations from UNESCO and ICOMOS for a unified management vision and heritage-sensitive development. Additional sites within the Greater Lumbini Area may be considered subject to their alignment with the project Development Objective—particularly in enhancing cultural heritage value, improving visitor experiences, and generating local economic opportunities and jobs.The proposed project will foster community-centered and environmentally responsible tourism, integrating benefit-sharing models to ensure local ownership, protect cultural and natural heritage, and address environmental and social challenges. It will also actively engage the private sector alongside the public sector to create opportunities to unlock investment and innovation. Finally, the proposed project will embody the One WBG approach in its preparation and implementation, leveraging the recent institutional changes that strengthen cross-Group collaboration. Teams from across the World Bank, IFC, and multiple sectors—including Finance, Competitiveness and Innovation (FCI), Transport, and Education—are working together to design an integrated operation that maximizes development impact.
