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 transaction technical assistance (TA) facility will provide technical support, capacity building, and policy advice to prepare a series of ensuing programs and projects to strengthen public management, financial sector, and trade policies in the Southeast Asian developing member countries (DMCs) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) during 2019-2022. The TA facility will combine supports for policy and reform actions required by the Southeast Asian DMCs to prepare various policy-based and project loans during 2019-2021. The TA facility, therefore, enables ADB to strengthen its engagement with policies and reforms in the Southeast Asian DMCs, thereby strengthening results and outcomes of the reforms, catalyzing resources needed for development, strengthening ADB's knowledge services and support to the DMCs, and improving ADB''s response to client needs with respect to policy designs, capacity building, and knowledge management."

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
