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.

According to bank documents, the objective of the project is to supply equipment to Tunisia’s central and local governments.

The RETF activities focus on procuring equipment for Tunisia’s central and local governments to provide impoverished existing, or expanded municipalities as well as newly created municipalities to have minimum material means to accomplish their missions as requested by law and to meet citizens’ expectations for service provision. With basic equipment supplies (such as desks, computers, telephones and fax, heating and air-conditioning), these municipalities will be expected to have the physical ability to perform their function and to provide expected services to citizens. This will also create a working environment able to attract and retain needed skilled staff.

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.
