Open Development Mekong updates profile of Early Warning System

The Early Warning System is a global initiative that ensures local communities, and the organizations that support them, have verified information about proposed bank-funded projects likely to cause human and environmental rights abuses and provides clear strategies for advocacy before the project financing is approved by the bank.

The initiative exchanges information, advice, tools, and resources with communities, the local organizations supporting them to inform development actors. The information exchanged includes accessible information about projects at development finance institutions, including the roles of any private actors, and critical data from community-led research efforts.  With data from local communities and development finance institutions, the Early Warning System exposes trends in development by sector, bank, geography, and community response.

The profile published on Open Development Mekong presents data related to Lower Mekong countries, including Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.
