This consultation on Country Safeguard Systems will present and discuss the issues relevant to applying and use of DMC’s own environmental and social safeguard policies in ADB-financed projects. It will look at various stakeholder recommendations on striking a balance between practical approaches to conducting equivalency assessments and designing strategies to allow DMCs to raise their own environmental and social frameworks and capacities which would subsequently allow them to apply for the full use of country systems in projects.
