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 project aims to promote energy (resource) efficiency and clean energy interventions in selected export processing zones, industrial zones and clusters (IZs) in Vietnam by providing in-depth advisory services to manufacturing firms and infrastructure management companies to develop demonstration projects that promote circular economy concepts while benefiting from synergies associated with multiple co-located industries.

Project activities will include scoping assessments, detailed audits, feasibility studies, awareness-raising, and training workshops. The practical experiences from implementation of demonstration projects will provide a sound foundation for advising the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) in promoting Low Carbon Eco-Efficient Zones that could serve as a model for sustainable private sector growth in Vietnam.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC

The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman (CAO) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an IFC or MIGA- financed project. If you submit a complaint to the CAO, they may assist you in resolving a dispute with the company and/or investigate to assess whether the IFC is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. If you want to submit a complaint electronically, you can email the CAO at CAO@worldbankgroup.org. You can learn more about the CAO and how to file a complaint at http://www.cao-ombudsman.org/
