Description

The Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) Health Security Project is composed of (i) four loans to Cambodia, the Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Viet Nam (CLMV); and (ii) a grant to the Lao PDR. The project builds on previous and ongoing interventions focusing on communicable disease control (CDC) in Cambodia, the Lao PDR, and Viet Nam; and now including Myanmar.

The impact will be GMS public health security strengthened. The outcome will be GMS health system performance with regard to health security improved. The project has three outputs.

"Output 1: Regional cooperation and communicable disease control in border areas improved.

"Output 2: National disease surveillance and outbreak response systems strengthened.

"Output 3: Laboratory services and hospital infection prevention and control improved.

Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy

Economic growth in the GMS is highly vulnerable to outbreaks of emerging diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome, avian influenza, and Middle East respiratory syndrome. Traditional communicable diseases, including drug-resistant malaria, dengue, and antimicrobial-resistant infections, also have a significant economic impact. Health systems weaknesses in CLMV are a threat to health security in the GMS, one of the targets of the United Nations sustainable development goals for the health sector. The project will address key binding constraints in the countries' health system and promote cross-country cooperation aimed at improving both national and international health security.

Health service networks within CLMV have expanded rapidly, but marginalized, mobile, and poor people still have limited access to health services. Disease control programs are in place but often do not reach these vulnerable groups in border areas due to staff and funding constraints.

Surveillance systems for notifiable diseases and syndromic reporting are being implemented in these four countries. Health authorities in CLMV have to increase their capacities for risk analysis data management, community preparedness, and disease outbreak response. Outbreak district response teams are often poorly equipped and financed, and need capacity building on outbreak investigation and management.

Past investments have improved laboratory services in provincial hospitals. In contrast, district hospital laboratories are unable to comply with internationally acceptable biosafety standards or to guarantee the accuracy of their laboratory tests. Formal processes for internal and external quality assurance are lacking. Laboratory auditing for compliance with quality and safety guidelines does not exist.

Hospitals and health centers receive patients with emerging infectious diseases, but infection prevention and control practices in health facilities are substandard. Hospital sanitation and hygiene facilities are lacking. Hospital medical waste management is often unsatisfactory. Such may result in ineffective treatment, the spread of infectious diseases, increased hospital-acquired infections, and development of drug resistance.

Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects
Environmental Aspects

The project is classified as category B for environment, as the project has components dealing with laboratory biohazards and hospital

solid and liquid waste management. Mitigation measures are included in the environmental management plan to address minor environmental risks. An initial environmental examination and an environmental assessment and review framework have been prepared.

Involuntary Resettlement The project is classified as category C for involuntary resettlement. There will be no construction of new health facilities or extension of existing health facilities, and no land acquisition is required. Screening during the selection of health facilities to be refurbished will rule out proposed sites, which require land acquisition and have resettlement impacts.
Indigenous Peoples The project is classified as category B for indigenous peoples. Ethnic minorities in the project areas will be positively affected as they will have better access to improved health services. An indigenous peoples development plan has been prepared for each country, and includes measures to ensure ethnic minority groups benefit from the project.
Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation
During Project Design During project preparation, there were notable consultations with potential beneficiaries, village health workers, community-based organizations, health staff, provincial and district health managers, provincial governments, central ministries, development partners and NGOs.
During Project Implementation

The MOHs as executing agencies will undertake information disclosures on the Project and its benefits, including but not limited to information related to the RRP, EMMPs and GAP. Public disclosure of the project financial statements, including the audit report on the project financial statements, will be guided by ADB's Public Communications Policy (2011). After review, ADB will disclose the project financial statements for the project and the opinion of the auditors on the financial statements within 30 days of the date of their receipt by posting them on ADB's website. The Audit Management Letter will be not be disclosed.

Reaching isolated communities constitutes a challenge, but provinces will use well-tested existing channels to reach them, such as village health communities, village health workers/volunteers, and grassroots networks existing in the project sites. A variety of communication media that have been proven effective will be utilized which include public awareness campaigns, community outreach, targeted group discussions, thematic workshops at the national and regional levels, and cross-border meetings. Relevant communication materials and knowledge products will be developed for targeted audience and a project website will be maintained throughout the project duration with links to existing MOH websites. In addition, the provincial preventive health centers (in Viet Nam), the provincial health offices in Cambodia and Lao PDR, and the township health offices (in Myanmar), will inform the project stakeholders (including beneficiaries, local nongovernmental organizations, women's and youth unions) on the project activities and progress. Direct links with the communities will be provided by the existing networks of village health volunteers and community health workers.

The MOHs current website on CDC shall contain a page on the Health Security project which is accessible to the public to disclose various information concerning the project, including general information about the project, public procurement related to the project, project progress and contact details in English and their national language. The webpage shall also provide a link to ADB's Integrity Unit (http://www.adb.org/Integrity/complaint.asp) for reporting to ADB any grievances or allegations of corrupt practices arising out of the project and project activities. For each contract, the webpage shall include information on among others the list of participating bidders, name of the winning bidder, basic details on bidding procedures adopted, amount of contract awarded, and the list of goods/services, including consulting services, procured.

Business Opportunities
Consulting Services All consultants will be recruited according to ADB's Guidelines on the Use of Consultants (2013, as amended from time to time). The four EAs will recruit individual international and national consultants. A few firms, mostly for financial management and audit, will be engaged.

Project Data Sheets (PDS) contain summary information on the project or program. Because the PDS is a work in progress, some information may not be included in its initial version but will be added as it becomes available. Information about proposed projects is tentative and indicative.

The Access to Information Policy (AIP) recognizes that transparency and accountability are essential to development effectiveness. It establishes the disclosure requirements for documents and information ADB produces or requires to be produced.

The Accountability Mechanism provides a forum where people adversely affected by ADB-assisted projects can voice and seek solutions to their problems and report alleged noncompliance of ADB's operational policies and procedures.

In preparing any country program or strategy, financing any project, or by making any designation of, or reference to, a particular territory or geographic area in this document, the Asian Development Bank does not intend to make any judgments as to the legal or other status of any territory or area.
