Shaanxi Province is one of the least developed provinces with per capita GDP, per capita urban income and per capita rural income at about 36.9%,84.7% and 76.1% of the national averages in 2015, ranking in 16th, 16th and 25th respectively among the 31 administrative provinces and regions in PRC. Fifty of Shaanxi’s 107 counties have been officially designated national poverty counties. 2. The project is located in Ankang and Shangluo, two prefecture-level cities of southern Qinba Mountain of Shaanxi. Qinba Mountain is one of the 11 poorest regions targeted for concentrated interventions under the 2011−2020 poverty reduction strategy of PRC Government. The proposed project will have direct impact on three counties (Xunyang County, Hanbin District and Shangnan County), all of which have been designated as national poverty counties since the 1990s. The overall poverty incidence of Shaanxi is 10.7%, and county/district of Xunyang, Hanbin and Shangnan being 40%, 38.6% and 34.3% respectively. Lack of adequate transport accessibility and a poor quality of the road network are some of the major constraints for the social and economic development of the region. 3. The primary objectives of the road rehabilitation components are threefold: 1) to upgrade network capacity for an expanding transport volume in the area, 2) to provide all-weather access to the village and county roads that connect to the trunk roads, and 3) to improve the road safety condition of these rehabilitated roads and an additional 660 km of rural roads. 4. The Project will comprise four components. 5. (1) Component 1:

Han River is the water source region of the middle route of South-to-North Water Diversion in China and the ecological projects were implemented since many years ago. In order to monitor the change of vegetation in Han River and evaluate the effect of ecological projects, it is needed to reveal the spatial-temporal change of the vegetation in the upper reach of Han River quantitatively. The study is based on MODIS/Terra NDVI remote sensing data, and analyzes the spatial-temporal changes of the NDVI in August from 2000 to 2016 at pixel scale in the upper reach of Han River Basin.

  • Child-Centering Road Safety: Making Sure It Works for Girls and Boys
    CASE STUDY Child-Centering Road Safety: Making Sure It Works for Girls and Boys Child-centering road safety education in three primary schools in the People’s Republic of China empowered girls and boys to drive their own learning. Photo credit: Shaanxi Gender Development Solution. They are seen, they are important road users, and their voice and agency can help make roads safer. Published: 09 October 2020 Overview Infrastructure improvements are key to improving road safety for children. Yet, it does not start or end there. Road safety interventions need to go beyond infrastructure to assist government agencies to better manage and enforce road safety, and improve education, vehicles, emergency response, and post-crash care. Interventions are more effective when combined across the system to guide users to act safely. From 2015–2020, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) supported a project in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) that made system-wide improvements to road safety, including infrastructure, institutional strengthening, and education interventions. The perspective of children—and the different views of girls and boys—were made explicit in the process so that the risks for this group of road users were understood and addressed. For this, child-centered and participatory methodologies were used in three primary schools and their communities along #102 Provincial Highway in Xunyang County, South Shaanxi. Project snapshot Dates September 2015: Approval date Dececember 2020: Completion date Cost $400 million : Total Cost $200 million : ADB Loan Institutions and Executing agency Stakeholders Shaanxi Provincial Department of Transport Financing Asian Development Bank Implementing agency Shaanxi Provincial Finance Bureau Shangnan County Traffic Bureau Ankang City Traffic Bureau Xunyang County Traffic Bureau Hanbin District Traffic Bureau Xunyang County Education Bureau Xunyang County Traffic Police Brigade of Public Security Bureau Challenges Often, age and gender nuances in road safety interventions are not very visible.
