IDEACONSULT

IDEACONSULT participated in preparing the Resettlement Framework for the Tunisia–Italy Power Interconnector Project (ELMED), as part of the multi-company joint venture identified in the document header as "JV HPC – IDEACONSULT – PROGER – ELARD – PLEXUS". The Resettlement Framework is a World Bank-disclosed safeguards instrument that sets out the principles, processes and institutional responsibilities for managing land acquisition, easements/right-of-way, compensation, and resettlement-related impacts associated with the project works in Tunisia. The document (Contractor Doc No: RF) was issued as a Final Version dated 2023-04-10 and includes a revision history showing IDEACONSULT as a preparer across multiple iterations, including revisions following World Bank comments. The framework covers topics such as the project area of influence, identification of potential impacts on land and people, eligibility and compensation principles, stakeholder consultation and information disclosure, grievance redress mechanisms, and monitoring and evaluation arrangements. This role evidences IDEACONSULT's environmental and social safeguards support to ELMED during the development stage, focused on resettlement planning and related impact-management documentation required for international lender compliance.
