The WACA Platform drives coastal resilience by accelerating knowledge transfer, mobilizing finance, and fostering inclusive dialogue.
Knowledge
It connects countries with global expertise, identifies investment needs, and supports data-driven decision-making through dedicated research hubs, observatories, and innovation calls. The Platform also promotes education and shares proven solutions to strengthen coastal resilience.
Finance
By streamlining financing processes, the Platform links donors and private sector partners to coastal investments, sets sustainability standards, and supports local economies through targeted initiatives.
Dialogue
WACA brings together policymakers, technical experts, and communities, promoting regional cooperation and citizen engagement to build a more resilient future.
The World Bank works with partners to develop the Platform during a five-year incubation period, during which time it will identify and strengthen the host(s) capacity to house and run the Platform in the future.
