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 the WB, the project (Phase I) comprises two main components: (i) Infrastructure and (ii) Governance and Project Management. The Infrastructure component focuses on the rehabilitation and expansion of water supply and sanitation (WSS) infrastructure in the Lake Titicaca and Lurin basins. This includes retrofitting designs and executing works for the drinking water and sewer networks in Puno, developing engineering designs for seven wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Lake Titicaca and Lurin basin, and implementing a Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) pilot in the Lurin basin. The project aims to enhance climate resilience, service efficiency, and sustainability by integrating circular economy principles, reducing non-revenue water (NRW), increasing energy efficiency, and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Project Management will finance goods and services for implementation support, including technical assistance and administrative support for M&E, procurement, FM, and E&S management. Meanwhile, the Governance component aims to support the implementation of the WSS circular economy roadmap at a national scale. This involves strengthening the capacity of key institutions under the Ministry of Housing, Construction, and Sanitation (MVCS) to incorporate circular economy principles in infrastructure design and service delivery. The component will also build the capacity of selected utilities to manage WSS infrastructure services and create an enabling environment for scaling up initiatives aimed at reducing NRW, increasing energy efficiency, and reclaiming and reusing water. The project will ultimately enhance climate adaptation and mitigate the climate impact of WSS service delivery.

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 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
