After working for several years at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) where I conducted the socio-environmental due diligence of over 50 private and public sector transactions, I learned that modernizing institutional policies can be a challenging task, but also presents many opportunities.
Congratulations to the team that facilitated the most recent workshop on “Sharing the Experiences of Civil Society Organizations in the Application of Environmental and Social Policies” and thanks to those that made possible my participation.
As the team continues drafting the new proposed policy framework that will be submitted to the IDB Board of Directors, I invite those working on environmentally friendly initiatives to make meaningful contributions to this process by going to www.iadb.org/mpas.
Sharing the Experiences of Civil Society Organizations
I enjoyed listening and sharing lessons learned from implementing the current safeguard policies in transportation, telecommunication, infrastructure, rural development, water and sanitation, energy and social sector projects. We will continue supporting this long overdue modernization process..
