Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

According to the bank website, the project will "support improving the development effectiveness and sustainability of Asian Development Bank (ADB) operations in fragile situations to help build resilience and address the causes of fragility in the Pacific. Through a series of country assessments, the TA will map out contributing factors to fragility in the Pacific. Based on these assessments as well as a review of ongoing and completed projects, the TA will identify new approaches to operations in fragile situations for project design, implementation, and operation and maintenance (O&M;). The TA will also facilitate capacity building and institutional strengthening activities that respond to the specific needs of fragile situations and help build resilience. A flagship knowledge-sharing event on fragility-sensitive approaches to development in the Pacific will provide for an exchange of experiences, lessons learned and best practices."

Contact Information
This section aims to support the local communities and local CSO to get to know which stakeholders are involved in a project with their roles and responsibilities. If available, there may be a complaint office for the respective bank which operates independently to receive and determine violations in policy and practice. Independent Accountability Mechanisms receive and respond to complaints. Most Independent Accountability Mechanisms offer two functions for addressing complaints: dispute resolution and compliance review.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF ADB

The Accountability Mechanism is an independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an Asian Development Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, they may investigate to assess whether the Asian Development Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can learn more about the Accountability Mechanism and how to file a complaint at: http://www.adb.org/site/accountability-mechanism/main
