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.

To achieve its objective, the project will introduce standard project appraisal and preparation models, along with sound legal, regulatory, and institutional policies that encourage private investment and optimal use of public resources to maximize available finance for development. The project will provide capacity-building support to relevant government agencies to allocate and disburse funds for development investment projects efficiently.

The project comprises of the following three components:

Component 1: Strengthening Institutional and Technical Capacity - This component will support the creation of a framework to manage public investments and PPPs to align with the proposed Public Investment Management Framework which aligns investments with national development priorities.

Component 2: Infrastructure Project Preparation Facility - This component will support the establishment and operation of an Infrastructure Project Preparation Facility, including development of its governance structure, institutional roles and responsibilities.

Component 3: Project Management - This component will finance the Project Management Unit.

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 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. You can learn more about the Inspection Panel and how to file a complaint at: http://ewebapps.worldbank.org/apps/ip/Pages/Home.aspx.
