sanitation and health from flooding. SDGs 1,3,6,9 and 11 can be

• Improving property taxing collection per square metre of pavement of
one’s property, with a percentage put into an adaptation fund for
climate resilient drainage infrastructure development and disaster
preparedness and response.

resilience of assets , improve natural capital and improve social
protection for the people most vulnerable to climate shocks.
