UNDP had been the only UN agency in Turkey so far, providing direct support to municipalities on waste management and municipal services, including infrastructure development and technical support. The TRP expands those efforts allowing delivery at scale and expansion to other municipalities. In addition to that, the Project complements infrastructure support with technical capacities for municipalities, in terms of planning and design of services delivery.
Based on a UNDP conducted Municipal Need Assessment, Hatay and Şanlıurfa provinces are most in need of support because of their lack of required firefighting vehicles and equipment. The TRP, therefore, supports these two municipalities with the provision of hardware and first response multipurpose firefighting vehicles.
