According to the IADB, the objective of this technical cooperation is to provide support for strengthening institutional capacity, engineering capabilities, early warning systems and social protection mechanisms to achieve long-term resilience including rehabilitation planning and development of territorial, multi-sectoral recovery plans.The TC aims to support the Government of Jamaica in advancing a post-Melissa recovery process that is structured, integrates a Build Forward Better (BFB) approach, strengthens long-term resilience, and promotes inclusive participation of affected communities. Specifically, the TC will provide strategic planning support and targeted technical assistance across three complementary levels: (i) at the national level, the TC will support the consolidation of a recovery framework through the sharing of international good practices and lessons learned; (ii) at the sectoral level, the TC will assist in the preparation of resilient recovery plans and action plans, including prioritization methodologies, systematic integration of resilience considerations, investment profiling, and ex-ante assessment of investment impacts; and (iii) at the territorial (municipal) level, the TC will support the formulation of comprehensive recovery plans through participatory approaches grounded in dialogue with communities and local stakeholders.This TC will be implemented in a manner that respects and complements ongoing recovery efforts, while reinforcing the leadership of the Government of Jamaica and leveraging international best practices adapted to the country's governance structures and socio-economic context. The TC will also be carried out in coordination with other international development partners to ensure coherence and complementarity of support. Through these efforts, the expected impact of the TC is to accelerate Jamaica's socio-economic recovery while systematically and institutionally embedding a Build Forward Better (BFB) approach that strengthens medium- to long-term resilience.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IADB

The Independent Consultation and Investigation Mechanism (MICI) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) or Inter-American Investment Corporation (IIC)-funded project. If you submit a complaint to MICI, they may assist you in addressing the problems you raised through a dispute-resolution process with those implementing the project and/or through an investigation to assess whether the IDB or IIC is following its own policies for preventing or mitigating harm to people or the environment. You can submit a complaint by sending an email to MICI@iadb.org. You can learn more about the MICI and how to file a complaint at http://www.iadb.org/en/mici/mici,1752.html (in English) or http://www.iadb.org/es/mici/mici,1752.html (Spanish).
