Project Description

The Procurement Policy Department (PPD) has stressed capacity building as a primary goal for the enhancement of public governance and in particular procurement to achieve transition objectives. Higher professional education plays a major role in ensuring that key procurement management staff has appropriate skills, experience and qualifications to lead and consolidate transition results as a sustainable base of procurement professionalism and integrity. In order to achieve efficiency and integrity in procurement, public sector procurement officials require best practice guidance and higher education. In order to support this goal, PPD together with the University of Tor Vergata (Rome) has developed and delivered successfully the first three generations of an English language International Master in Public Procurement Management specifically designed for procurement officials from the Bank's countries of operation (CoO). The 4^th generation is ongoing and it will be completed by February 2017.

Building capacity of public procurement professionals in order to contribute towards enhance corporate governance, more efficient use of public funds, better implementation of public development projects and building a network of procurement professional while reducing the risks of EBRD’s operations in CoO.

Access to Information Policy (AIP)

The AIP sets out how the EBRD discloses information and consults with its stakeholders so as to promote better awareness and understanding of its strategies, policies and operations following its entry into force on 1 January 2020. Please visit the Access to Information Policy page to find out what information is available from the EBRD website.

Independent Project Accountability Mechanism (IPAM)

If efforts to address environmental, social or public disclosure concerns with the Client or the Bank are unsuccessful (e.g. through the Client’s Project-level grievance mechanism or through direct engagement with Bank management), individuals and organisations may seek to address their concerns through the EBRD’s Independent Project Accountability Mechanism (IPAM).

IPAM independently reviews Project issues that are believed to have caused (or to be likely to cause) harm. The purpose of the Mechanism is: to support dialogue between Project stakeholders to resolve environmental, social and public disclosure issues; to determine whether the Bank has complied with its Environmental and Social Policy or Project-specific provisions of its Access to Information Policy; and where applicable, to address any existing non-compliance with these policies, while preventing future non-compliance by the Bank.

Please visit the Independent Project Accountability Mechanism webpage to find out more about IPAM and its mandate; how to submit a Request for review; or contact IPAM via email ipam@ebrd.com to get guidance and more information on IPAM and how to submit a request.
