| Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects | |
|---|---|
| Environmental Aspects | The project will address poor access to safe water in Tete Settlement, an informal settlement of about 8,000 people in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Outputs include: (i) new water supply infrastructure, (ii) effective community management of Tete water supply scheme, and (iii) model developed for community-managed water supply scheme in settlement areas. |
| Involuntary Resettlement | All proposed water supply infrastructure is expected to be built on government owned land and no activities will result to any physical and economic displacement. |
| Indigenous Peoples | ADB SPS requirements on IPs are not triggered since while there are tribes/clans in the project areas, (i) they are the dominant population in the local areas, (ii) their institutions are not separate from mainstream society, and (iii) they are not vulnerable. |
