Administrative divisions sometimes reflect natural features, with rivers or mountains as boundaries, but are not usually developed to reflect local economies. Livelihood zones therefore cross administrative boundaries. At the same time, for early warning, as for most other purposes, populations

  • World Bank Document
    SFG1006 REV Rwanda Great Lakes Emergency Sexual and Gender Based Violence and Women’s Health Project Public Disclosure Authorized Environmental and Social Management Approach, including Environmental Management Plan and Medical Waste Management Plan Executive Summary and Conclusions The Environmental and Social Management Approach (ESMA) provides general policies, guidelines, codes of practice and procedures to mainstream environmental and social (E&S) due diligence during the implementation of the World Bank supported Great Lakes Emergency Sexual and Gender Based Violence and Women’s Health Project. The objective of the abbreviated ESMA is to help ensure that activities will be in compliance with the national legislations of Rwanda and the World Bank’s E&S safeguards policies. Public Disclosure Authorized The document is the main due diligence instrument required by the World Bank as financer, and additionally covers and goes beyond the Rwandan national regulatory requirements for project- level environmental assessment and management. The Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) will be the main resource for environmental management and monitoring for the Client and set the standards and practices that will guide environmental and social project performance. It will become part of the tender package and environmental management and compliance will constitute a subsection of line items in the bill of quantities (BoQ). The selected bidders will be required to accept E&S conditions and tasks upon contract signature, and the implementation of the ESMP will be an integral part of the construction contracts. The monitoring of E&S performance will, much as other quality criteria, be tied to contractual penalties and damage restoration requirements via appropriate contractual clauses.
