Resource information
The proposed Results-Based National
Urban Development Program in the Northern Mountains Region
(RBNUDP-NM or the Program ) will assist the Government of
Vietnam in developing the implementation framework for its
national urban program. It will do this by piloting a
performance-based transfer system that will provide
participating cities with a combination of much needed
resources along with a clarification of implementation
responsibilities, a results-based orientation, improved
planning and a strengthening of oversight and accountability
through audits and verification activities. The Program
Development Objective is to strengthen the capacity of
participating Northern Mountains cities to plan, implement
and sustain urban infrastructure. The World Bank s
Program-for-Results lending instrument is to be used for
this operation. The Program targets the following seven
cities Dien Bien Phu, Bac Kan, Cao Bang, Thai Nguyen, Hoa
Binh, Tuyen Quang and Yen Bai.
