The fund provides ADB with a dedicated source of grant financing to support priority rehabilitation and reconstruction needs on a multi-sector basis.
The objective of this fund is to pool and deliver emergency grant financing promptly and effectively to affected DMCs for technical assistance (TA) and investment projects to support reconstruction, rehabilitation and associated development activities following the tsunami disaster.
