Request summary

On 19 May 2024 IPAM received a Request from a former employee of Acwa Power in Uzbekistan in relation to two EBRD-funded wind energy projects Uzbekistan Bash WPP and Uzbekistan Dzhankeldy WPP. The Requester alleged workplace gender discrimination, stigmatisation and harassment, as well as poor living conditions for women at project camp. Due to risk of retaliation, the Requester asked for her concerns to be considered by the Compliance function of IPAM.  

In September 2026, the Requester communicated that she wished to withdraw her Request, due to ongoing fear of retaliation from the Client. Following this and given that IPAM is unable to continue processing the Case in the absence of a Requester under the Project Accountability Policy, IPAM closed the Case on 21 October 2026.
