Description

The project is being carried out by the Integrated Economic Development of the Mining Sector Project (DISM II), in partnership with the Congolese Environment Agency (ACE), which is responsible for environmental and social assessments and for monitoring and controlling the implementation of ESMPs at national level.

This work will make it possible to identify good and bad practices in the provinces affected; and in partnership with the various partners and civil society, to propose recommendations integrating REDD+ standards into the extractive sectors. Finally, best practice guides will also be drawn up, based on the experience gained with dialogue platforms in the extractive sector. Adaptations of the various texts relating to the legal and regulatory provisions linked to the environmental and social governance of the extractive sectors will also be proposed in order to be consistent with REDD+ standards and the principles of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI).
