The Global Centre for Adaptation has also provided support for the assessment of climate risks to port infrastructure and adaptation options to be considered in the design of the structures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project aims to modernise port infrastructure that is essential to the economic development of the islands of the Union of the Comoros, facilitate trade and strengthen regional connectivity. It will enable the Indian Ocean archipelago to capitalise on its strategic geographical position in the Mozambique Channel and become a logistics hub between Africa and Asia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe maritime corridor we are launching today is an eloquent testimony to our ability to build a resilient nation, fully integrated into regional and continental dynamics,\u201d said President Assoumani. \u201cIt is a living symbol of our openness to the world, a bridge between people, a vehicle for trade, cooperation and shared prosperity,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Comorian Minister of Maritime and Air Transport, Yasmine Hassane Alfeine, praised the African Development Bank Group as \u201ca loyal strategic partner whose technical and financial support consistently accompanies efforts to realise a vision of development based on sustainability, integration and infrastructure resilience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cToday, thanks to this strengthened corporation, we are taking a new step in the modernisation of our port and maritime infrastructure, with the prospect of creating a special economic zone,\u201d added Alfeine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The project is aligned with the Bank Group&#8217;s 2024-2033 Ten-Year Strategy and the \u201cFour Cardinal Points\u201d of the institution&#8217;s president, Sidi Ould Tah. It will enable the construction of resilient infrastructure and the development of agricultural and fisheries value chains and will facilitate the creation of thousands of jobs for young people and women.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis flagship project of the Comoros Emerging Plan 2030 will contribute to developing value chains in agriculture and fisheries, while creating economic opportunities for young people and women,\u201d said Lat\u00e9 Lawson Zankli, Country Programme Advisor, representing the Bank Group at the ceremony.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since the beginning of its cooperation with the Union of the Comoros in 1977, the African Development Bank Group has financed nearly 40 operations for a cumulative amount of approximately $530 million. The sectors covered by these investments are transport, energy, agriculture and governance. This new project confirms the pan-African development finance institution&#8217;s commitment to supporting the archipelago in its journey towards sustainable, inclusive and resilient
