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's website, the approved project aims to strengthen resilience in vulnerable and poor areas. The project targets 500 vulnerable municipalities in rural areas selected based on high poverty incidence, high level of exposure to natural and climate hazards, presence of indigenous people and high rates of malnutrition. The Project will target and ensure inclusion of vulnerable populations at-risk from impacts from natural hazards and climate change, including 4P beneficiaries, Indigenous People and women, and will be implemented over a five-year period. The Project will have four components: (i) Community Resilience: Strengthening risk informed planning through a participatory locally-led process and financing resilience investments, including rehabilitation or construction of small resilience infrastructure (green and grey) and livelihood infrastructure and practices; (ii) Institutional Support for Local Resilience: Support for capacity building of project staff and partner agencies for enhanced local risk-informed planning; and a resilience knowledge platform to put in place risk resilience planning resources and tools for communities as well as barangay and municipal local government units; (iii) Project Monitoring, Evaluation and Management; and (iv) a Contingent Emergency Response Component.

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.

Task Team Leader: Samuel Thomas Clark

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
