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.

As stated by the World Bank, the development objective of the Second Recovery and Resilience Programmatic Development Policy Credit for Grenada is to support Grenada’s recovery, through two pillars, (i) promoting a greener and more climate-resilient economy; and (ii) improving sustainability, inclusiveness, and accountability of fiscal management.
Reforms under the operation address pre-existing structural challenges, as well as gaps exposed by the pandemic.
Pillar 1 helps Grenada build resilience to external shocks and climate change, by supporting comprehensive disaster risk management legislation, the accountable and efficient use of energy, and the incentives to preserve resources.
Reforms under pillar 2 will help the country strengthen responsible and sustainable fiscal policies, through promoting healthy behavior, reducing the gender gap, mitigating the impact of climate change, establishing an unemployment insurance program, and enhancing the transparency of the citizenship-by-investment program. 

Early Warning System Project Analysis

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF THE WORLD BANK

The World Bank Inspection Panel is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by a World Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Inspection Panel, they may investigate to assess whether the World Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can contact the Inspection Panel or submit a complaint by emailing ipanel@worldbank.org. Information on how to file a complaint and a complaint request form are available at: https://www.inspectionpanel.org/how-to-file-complaint
