  • Pakistan and Government of Punjab Have Planned to Implement a Punjab Tourism for Economic Growth Project with Strong Support from the Private Sector and Civil Society
    SFG2802 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Government of Pakistan and Government of Punjab have planned to implement a Punjab Tourism for Economic Growth Project with strong support from the private sector and civil society. The Chief Minister of Punjab established a Steering Committee on July 7, 2015, to oversee tourism promotion in the province. It is chaired by the Minister of Tourism and comprises senior representatives from relevant government departments, a Member of the Punjab Assembly along with two private sector representatives. A sub-committee was formed in November 2015 with key focal points from the Tourism Development Corporation of Punjab (TDCP), the Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB) and District Coordination Officers (DCOs). The DCOs serve as lead persons, or project directors, for the sites in their areas. Finally, the Government of Punjab has also recently set up an Advisory Council comprising distinguished professionals to oversee the overall policy related to the promotion of cultural heritage and project implementation. These proactive initiatives show a commitment to turn this project into an effective vehicle for tourism development. Background The Project will finance some low-scale physical interventions to provide improved access, better road conditions and public convenience facilities. In line with the environmental legislation of Pakistan as well as World Bank (WB) Operational Policies, an Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) for the project has been prepared to include environmental and social impact studies for the selected sites to mitigate any negative impact. This ESMF assesses environmental and social impacts related to the Project, and outlines an Environmental and Social Management and Monitoring Plan (ESMMP) as well as a Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) to address any adverse potential impacts as a result of this Project.
