Project Description

Transition Gaps in the EU COOs remain large in the field of urban regeneration, as many cities face a lack of appropriate and green real estate in accessible, well-served locations, especially as they are in the process of shifting from manufacturing towards knowledge-based industries. Further, many of the Central European, Baltic and South-Eastern European COOs face negative demographics and flat rates of urbanization, although this is partially masked by the ongoing migration of populations to a small number of prominent cities accompanied by population decline in a larger number of less prominent settlements. This situation makes a rethinking of the urban space in affected cities indispensable.

Urban regeneration projects can first and foremost improve energy efficiency in built environments by reducing locked-in emissions from sprawling cities and by upgrading existing building stock. These types of projects further have the potential to improve citizens’ quality of life by i) reducing travel times between residential locations and access points for work and public services, ii) improving disinvested locations and creating new public spaces and, perhaps most importantly by iii) supporting new economic models and enhancing labour markets through attraction of new investments in the most accessible urban core locations. The pipeline of project opportunities in EU countries is strong, as potential projects are currently under development in Poland and Croatia. The Bank can demonstrate strong additionally in these engagements through integrated banking and cooperation operations.

Within the context of the Programme, support will be provided in two critical working areas: Brownfield Urban Regeneration Masterplan Support Services and Asset Strategy/ Buildings Energy Support Services.

The EBRD will be the beneficiary of the services.

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.

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.
