SELECTION CRITERIA FOR REGIONS UNDER RISE AND 1ST GENERATION SUB-PROJECTS

 Selection of the first-generation roads:

 Discussions with relevant stakeholders (including agricultural sector) and the regional and district

• ffices who are closer to the beneficiary communities.

 Multi-criteria analysis (MCA) approach for district roads:



Traffic volume,



Population,



Agricultural production,



Access to social services, and



Connectivity with a higher hierarchy road (trunk or regional) in good or fair condition.

 Regional network prioritization will be linked with the district MCA based on two criteria:



Traffic volumes and



‘Benefits’ derived from the connected district roads.

RISE ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL FRAMEWORKS

24

RISE ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

ESMF establishes a process, and defines roles and responsibilities for addressing environmental and social issues for sub-projects from preparation, through review and approval, to implementation under sub-components 1a and 1b describes the process to screen potential projects of the RISE Program for environmental and social issues and how to manage the adverse environmental and social risk and impacts that may result from any road works

25

RISE RESETTLEMENT POLICY FRAMEWORK

Is a document prepared when a project has potential for physical and/or economic displacement but the likely nature or magnitude is unknown during project preparation.

• Establishes resettlement objectives and principles, organizational

arrangements, and mechanisms for any resettlement operation;

• Provides the legal and regulatory framework between the country

policies with the World Bank’s ESS5;

• Is expanded into one or more specific resettlement plans when the

information is available.

26

RISE STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT PLAN

 the RISE’s SEP is prepared to ensure full involvement of all stakeholders in a transparent and inclusive

manner and ensure smooth collaboration between program’s staff and local communities.

 The SEP will oversee involvement of local population towards the success of the RISE Program in the

progress of minimizing and mitigating environmental and social risks related to the Program.

 Stakeholders will be involved in all projects stages (i.e. planning, design, construction and maintenance)

through people – centered design approach and community based routine maintenance (CBRM).

• Stakeholders of the RISE Program have been identified based on:
• their roles and responsibilities
• possible influence/interest on the program
• their particular circumstances (disadvantaged or vulnerable in different ways as per ESS7)
• The identified Stakeholders include:
• Project Affected Parties - Those who are affected or likely to be affected by the project
• Other interested parties - Those who may have an interest in the project

27

RISE LABOUR MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES

LMP will be used to identify main labor requirements, risks as well as hazards associated with the Program implementation as stipulated in National Laws i.e. Tanzania Employment and Labour Relations Act (2004),Tanzania OHS Act No.5 of 2003 as well as the WB-ESS2 (Labour and Working Conditions) The RISE Program is expected to utilize Direct workers, Contracted workers, Community workers, Migrant workers. This LMP’s intentions are:

• To promote Safety and Health at Work sites;
• To promote fair treatment, non-discrimination and equal opportunity of project workers;
• To protect project workers;
• To prevent the use of all forms of forced Labour and Child Labour;
• To support the principles of freedom of association and collective bargaining of project workers in a manner consistent

with National Labour Laws, regulations and ESS2;

• To provide a Grievance Redress Mechanism for project workers as well as local communities to raise their concerns.

28

RISE VULNERABLE GROUPS PLANNING FRAMEWORK

 VGPF is a practical tool to ensure that individual projects of the RISE program

respect the dignity, human rights, economies and cultures of vulnerable groups, which include the indigenous peoples/sub-Saharan African/Historically underserved Traditional Local Communities according to The National’s policies e.g. The Cultural Heritage Policy of 2008, The National Policy on HIV/AIDS of 2001, and the WB-ESS7.

 The RISE program has categorized these groups as Children; women; the youth;

persons with disabilities; Persons living with HIV/AIDS; the elderly; refugees, internally displaced persons and labourers.

 Therefore, the

Vulnerable Groups Plans for specific peojects will be prepared to address challenges that vulnerable groups face such as land ownership conflicts especially to women, encroachment by other ethnic groups, and isolation in decision making; as well as to address their grievances during the program implementation.

29

RISE ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL COMMITMENT PLAN

ESCP is a specific instrument prepared to take into account findings of environmental and social assessments of the RISE program. Sets out material measures and actions that are required for projects to achieve compliance with the ESSs over specified timeframes and in a satisfactory manner to the Bank; Specifies actions to be taken, responsible parties, timeframes and resources to be provided to carry them out.

The material measures committed to be addressed are:



Incident & accident Notification;



ESS1- Preparation of Mgt tools, Gender Policy, Mgt of Contractors;



ESS2- Worker’s GRM, OHS measures, Emergency Preparedness & Response, workers training;





ESS4- Traffic & Road Safety, Community Health & Safety, GBV &SEA risks, Emergency Response, Security Personnel, Community Training;



ESS5- Land acquisition & Resettlement, RAPs, Reporting & Monitoring, GRM;



ESS6- Biodiversity risks & impacts (ESIA);



ESS7- VGPF, project specific ESIA, GRM;


