1.4. The Project Cycle

Resettlement measures in Bank-funded projects are built around a development strategy and form an integral part of the project design from the earliest stages of the project cycle. The Bank's policy spells out a number of measures which must be completed during the project cycle, starting with the Initial Social Assessment (ISA), which is undertaken for every development project.

Resettlement requirements in the project cycle are summarized as follows:

• ISA during Project Preparatory Technical Assistance (PPTA) Fact-Finding
  During ISA, the Mission decides the scope and resources needed for resettlement planning.
• PPTA Feasibility Study
  The Feasibility Study includes preparation of the Resettlement Plan (RP).
• Management Review Meeting (MRM)
  The MRM reviews the summary RP in the Report and Recommendation of the President (RRP).
• Appraisal
  The Appraisal Mission finalizes the RP.
• Loan Negotiations
  Negotiations include assurances on resettlement.
• Implementation
  Supervision covers implementation of the RP.
• Monitoring and Evaluation
  The RP incorporates monitoring and evaluation (M&E).

Chapter 2 situates resettlement planning in the project cycle.
