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.

The knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) will provide policy recommendations and technical guidance for disaster risk management (DRM) based on natural hazard characteristics, exposure, and physical and socioeconomic vulnerabilities. Specifically, the TA will develop frameworks, build capacity, provide technical guidance, and define cost-effective options for DRM in the People's Republic of China (PRC). The TA will foster regional partnerships among the PRC and neighboring countries on improving disaster preparedness and resilience.

The TA is included in the indicative country operations business plan for the PRC, 2021 -2023. The TA is aligned with the country partnership strategy for the PRC, 2021 -2025 (strategic priority 2) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), and supports all seven operational priorities of ADB's Strategy 2030.

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.
