Stakeholder Communication, Participation and Consultation
During Project Design Two types of consultations were conducted, (i) stakeholder consultation, and (b) public consultation. Stakeholder consultations were performed mainly with selected individuals and organizations with professional expertise in assessing various impacts of road projects at the national and provincial levels. The public consultations were conducted in Batumi with various stakeholders including the representatives from the affected community. The consultation involved a wide range of participants representing affected people, community leaders, civil society, NGOs, environmental professionals, and central and regional government officials. The stakeholder consultations were held in Tbilisi and Batumi in March, April and June 2009. The objective was to share information on the project and obtain feedback on its design.
During Project Implementation Stakeholder participation and consultation will continue during implementation phase of the Program and under each tranche. The terms of reference of supervision consultants require regular stakeholders and public consultations. RD will work with local governments to conduct stakeholders and public consultations.
