According to the bank document, the proposed project will support the Governments of Cambodia, Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), and Myanmar to enhance regional integration and economic cooperation in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS). A co-financing and knowledge partnership with the Government of Thailand will be explored during the project design. The proposed project will improve access to health services for men and women migrant workers in the GMS border special economic zones (SEZ) through social infrastructure development and health financing support. The proposed project showcases the comparative advantage of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in the GMS, building on ongoing support for health security, migrant population health, communicable disease control, and health systems strengthening.
The project seeks to improve GMS cross border collaboration and migrant workers' quality of life (ASEAN Consensus on the Protection and Promotion of the Rights of Migrant Workers) with the outcome is to improve access to affordable health services by men and women migrant workers in selected SEZs.

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
