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 proposed knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) cluster will support the green development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) in the People's Republic of China (PRC). It will:

  • Support research on enabling policies, regulations, and incentive mechanisms needed to achieve the environmental goals and objectives outlined for the YREB region; and
  • Undertake analytical work needed to design and implement demonstration projects. The TA cluster subprojects were developed on the request of the Government of the PRC with the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) to support the Asian Development Bank's (ADB) strategic project investments for achieving targets outlined in the YREB development plan.

The TA cluster subprojects were included in the country operations business plan for the PRC, 2018 2020; and are consistent with the focus of ADB's Strategy 2030 and its development agenda of supporting institutional reform and achieving environmentally sustainable growth, which are the strategic priorities of ADB's assistance to the PRC.

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
