According to the IADB, the expected long-term impact of this TC is to enhance water security and ecosystem resilience in the Amazon Region. In particular, the results of the TC are: (i) Improved technical-scientific knowledge about the Amazon Aquifer Systems (AAS); (ii) Strengthened existing regional governance; and (iii) Agreed elements for its protection and sustainable use. The Project will deliver two main products: a Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) to get a common understanding of the current state of groundwater resources, and then a Strategic Action Program (SAP), as the regional strategy for the protection and rational use of the shared aquifer systems.
ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IADB
The Independent Consultation and Investigation Mechanism (MICI) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) or Inter-American Investment Corporation (IIC)-funded project. If you submit a complaint to MICI, they may assist you in addressing the problems you raised through a dispute-resolution process with those implementing the project and/or through an investigation to assess whether the IDB or IIC is following its own policies for preventing or mitigating harm to people or the environment. You can submit a complaint by sending an email to MICI@iadb.org. You can learn more about the MICI and how to file a complaint at http://www.iadb.org/en/mici/mici,1752.html (in English) or http://www.iadb.org/es/mici/mici,1752.html (Spanish).
