The programme also includes 170 projects financed through the Climate Change Trust Fund, underscoring the government’s continued emphasis on climate resilience and adaptation.
Five sectors have received the largest share of allocations: transport and communication, power and energy, housing and community facilities, education, and local government and rural development.
In terms of ministries and divisions, the Local Government Division received the highest allocation, followed by the Road Transport and Highways Division and the Power Division.
