GERMP Phase III Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) development process<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Gambia Electricity Restoration and Modernization Project (GERMP) is an electricity project by the Government of The Gambia (GOTG), the International Development Association (IDA), the European Investment Bank (EIB), and the European Union (EU). It aims to increase NAWEC\u2019s generation capacity through renewable sources and also to reinforce its transmission infrastructure in the Greater Banjul Area (GBA) as well as in the provinces.<\/p>\n

In this regard, 30kV transmission lines with associated MV T-Offs and distribution networks will be constructed in certain parts of the provinces involving 92 communities in Central River, Upper River, North Bank, and Lower River Regions.<\/p>\n

From 19th<\/sup> \u2013 30th<\/sup> September 2023 an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) of the sub-project was conducted along the proposed transmission corridors. The assessment identified potential impacts leading to involuntary resettlement, with consequences on the affected persons in terms of loss of property, income, sources of income and access to natural resources that constitute their livelihoods.<\/p>\n

The Alkalo and community members of the affected communities listed below were met during consultations, and a census\/survey was conducted to identify the project-affected persons along the corridors between 16th<\/sup> – 29th<\/sup> December 2023. All those whose land(s) and fruit trees will be affected by the Project, after confirmation with their respective Alkalo of being left out of the census\/survey, are requested to contact the NAWEC Project Implementation Unit (PIU) as soon as possible. The cut-off date indicated for the census is December 29th<\/sup>, 2023. The communities affected are listed as:<\/p>\n
