Environmental and Social Safeguards in IRBM Project Implementation in ASEAN Countries

The GEF/UNDP/ASEAN Project on Reducing Pollution and Preserving Environmental Flows in the East Asian Seas through the Implementation of Integrated River Basin Management (IRBM) in the ASEAN Countries is a 5-year project (2023-2027) with the goal of establishing functional IRBM mechanisms in priority river basins/sub-basins in the six ASEAN Member States (AMS), i.e., Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Philippines and Viet Nam, to reduce pollution, sustain freshwater environmental flows and adapt to climate change vulnerabilities.

The Project requires a Social and Environmental Safeguards Specialist to conduct a review of the Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) which provides a preliminary analysis of the range of potential social and environmental risks and impacts of project activities, including the conduct of a project level Strategic Environmental and Social Assessment (SESA) and guidance in the conduct of basin level Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIAs) and preparation of basin level Environmental and Social Management Plans (ESMPs) in the seven priority river basins.
