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 objectives of the Additional Financing for the Second Land Administration Project for Nicaragua are: (a) to strengthen the property rights of the population in the Project area through improved regularization, titling, and registry services; and (b) to improve Nicaragua's capacity to respond promptly and effectively to an eligible emergency. The Additional Financing focuses on: (i) expanding the Integrated Cadastre Registry Information System (SIICAR) in Managua and Estelí; (ii) scaling-up cadastral, titling, and regularization services; (iii) strengthening municipal cadastre capacity; and (iv) supporting land administration studies and Project management, monitoring and evaluation. The Additional Financing will use the existing implementation arrangements, with the exception of two of the co-executing agencies, the National Institute for Development Information (INIDE) and the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (MARENA), given that their activities will be completed under the original credit.

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.
