The contractor together with the GIZ project team, the respective districts and residents, will develop a detailed physical plan for each neighbourhood in a participatory, inclusive, climate-resilient and integrated manner. The activities to be implemented involve an assessment of existing regulations, master plans and urban structures of each neighbourhood, several workshops with neighbourhood development committees to develop a neighbourhood development strategy and respective vision. A needs assessment shall be conducted with the residents of the neighbourhood and result in a priority list of small-scale infrastructure ideas as well as mid-to-longer term project ideas that the community needs. The goal is to have a detailed physical plan for each neighbourhood that factors in climate and gender considerations ready for approval by the district council. Additionally, these planning processes shall further inform the updating or development of policies, guidelines or instructions.
