• Urban

Tackling climate change and providing access to clean water

We protect 1.4 million people against floods in the Buenos Aires province. The project includes dikes, flood plains, and restore or replace bridges along the River Salado.

We also help improve water and wastewater infrastructure in the city of Buenos Aires. The project comprises expanding a sewage network, a wastewater treatment facility and a water treatment plant. The new infrastructure will reduce greenhouse gases and mitigate climate change.

Reducing the impact of the pandemic with Team Europe

We help the Argentine government to purchase COVID-19 vaccines. This support strengthens the country's resilience and reduces the economic impact of the pandemic. The vaccine agreement is part of Team Europe’s efforts to make COVID-19 vaccines available globally.

Revaluing waste, and the people who pick it

In Argentina’s Jujuy region, a new project - part of the Province’s Jujuy Verde Initiative - to manage waste sustainably and cut down greenhouse gases is bringing new economic opportunities for women.

The waste management programme will improve the collection, treatment and safe disposal of municipal solid waste, whilst helping to create employment opportunities for female waste pickers.

Improving the Buenos Aires metro

The Metro de Buenos Aires loan will improve the metro network. The massive modernisation programme will improve public transit, sustainability, and mitigate climate change.

This project includes signalling system renewals, new power-supply systems, ventilation system upgrades, extra train stock, depot refurbishments and major station redesigns.

Working with the European Union

As part of Team Europe, the EIB has increased its development finance, especially in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Team Europe is a global recovery package that combines resources from the European Union, Member States and the EIB, and supports the most vulnerable countries and people most at risk around the world.

In line with Team Europe initiatives, our projects in Latin American and Caribbean countries are aimed at achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals and addressing challenges posed by COVID-19.
