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 proposed subproject is part of the cluster regional research and development technical assistance that will support the preparation of the flagship publication the Key Indicators for Asia and the Pacific (KI) for the next 3 years. The publication provides (i) the latest comprehensive compendium and analysis of trends in economic, social, financial, and environmental indicators including those pertaining to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for ADB's regional members; (ii) a unique set of reliable and accurate statistics on global value chains (GVCs) that capture trade links across countries and industries while accounting for the complex input output relationships involved in producing goods and services; and (iii) a special report that provides in-depth, data-intensive analysis of an important policy issue. In addition to disseminating its statistics through print and digital media, ADB's statistical database system (SDBS) the associated online database of the Key Indicators enables users to access and analyze statistics on economic and social themes. The statistics portal, a related online resource accessible to ADB staff, disseminates information on data resources available in ADB and offers links to non-ADB data resources.

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
