The main project objective is to create a safe and secure environment for air transport in West and Central Africa (WCA) that will allow African airlines to competitively access regional and worldwide markets.
... See More + This objective will be measured against two main tools: a) on aviation safety aspects, country audits conducted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in compliance with provisions of the International Civil Aviation convention; and, b) on security aspects, results of the ICAO audits and US Transport Security Administration assessments in compliance with ICAO requirements. To this end, construction works will entail land acquisition, and the resettlement of project affected people (PAP), therefore, this resettlement plan sets the guidelines to minimize as possible any resettlement, and improve, or at least restore the living conditions of affected populations. In Cameroon, five villages will be affected due to the Yaounde-Nsimalen Airport (V. 1), and it is recommended retaining walls be installed around the perimeter for safety measures, while the Marial sanctuary will be reinstalled at a selected site, access routes will be created to allow safe passage to local communities, and job creation will be enhanced, particularly for the young. Local communities have been informed of their rights, in particular riparian rights, ensuring their compensation rights - land replacement or cash compensation, income restoration, and job opportunities -, while grievance mechanisms will be in place should conflict occur. Concerning the Douala Airport (V. 2), resettlement impacts will affect cultural heritage sites, income losses, including crop losses, and communal grounds. Construction sites will be likewise enclosed with retaining walls to ensure safety, access roads constructed to allow communities mobilization, and public awareness campaigns should disseminate information to PAP regarding their compensation rights, in particular on involuntary resettlement, to be in compliance with the Bank's operational directive on involuntary resettlement. In Guinea, the resettlement plan (V. 3) addresses measures to minimize adverse impacts on PAP due to the construction of the Conakry-Gbessia airport, and, similarly to the previous, addresses measures to ensure PAP their rightful compensation, be it land replacement or cash compensation, income losses, crop losses, including new job opportunities.

This note looks at the challenge of capacity building in post conflict countries, including at options for creating capacity, and the trade-offs between speed, and longer-term impact, the need to ensure that aid management agencies include sunset provisions, and six proposed general lessons for more sustainable capacity building.
... See More + Rebuilding institutions is much more difficult than rebuilding damaged infrastructure. Capacity building is an enormous challenge, a challenge that requires imagination, cooperation, and hard work among those who seek to improve the conditions of conflict-affected countries.

Within the framework of the qualitative study on poverty and exclusion in Guatemala, this paper identifies perceptions on education from a qualitative and multi-ethnic viewpoint in the country.
... See More + This paper further reviews the nature of restrictions and opportunities within an economic mobility perspective, to better understand the dynamic processes which foster or diminish poverty and exclusion. Four specific objectives are pursued: 1) factor identification that foster rural indigenous and non-indigenous poverty; 2) provision of specific mechanisms to minimize poverty and exclusion, through individual case studies, within a comprehensive framework; 3) development of theories and hypothesis to help in the design and analysis of ENCOVI (Survey on National Living Conditions); and, 4) better understanding of vulnerabilities, and potential mechanisms to overcome those, towards improved social services delivery, and for the design of social protection networks.
