Six areas that together cover a resettlement programme, from the first survey to restored livelihoods.

  1. Resettlement planning

    A plan the authorities can approve and a field team can follow, covering who moves, where, when and at what cost.

    • Resettlement action plans (RAP), new and updated
    • Relocation plans by village and phase
    • Resettlement site planning
    • Implementation schedule and budget
  2. Compensation and asset inventory

    A complete record of what each household loses and what it is owed.

    • Survey of land, houses, structures, trees and crops
    • Loss of assets register signed by owners
    • Valuation at replacement cost
    • Entitlement matrix and compensation agreements
  3. Livelihood restoration

    Income sources rebuilt at the new site, starting from what each household wants to do.

    • Agriculture and production land development
    • Livestock and village veterinary services
    • Fisheries and aquaculture
    • Small business, skills and employment
    • Transitional food support and income monitoring
  4. Community development

    A new village that functions as a community, with its own organisation and services.

    • Village committees and organisation
    • Community infrastructure: school, health post, water, roads
    • Education, culture and tradition
    • Measures for women, ethnic groups and vulnerable households
  5. Socio-economic and PAP survey

    The baseline for eligibility, planning and later monitoring.

    • Census of every affected household
    • Occupations, income and expenditure baseline
    • Vulnerability screening
    • Register and database of project affected persons (PAP)
  6. Stakeholder engagement and consultation

    Affected people informed early, heard, and answered on record.

    • Province, district and village meetings
    • Separate sessions with women and ethnic groups
    • Host community consultation
    • Disclosure of entitlements
    • Grievance redress mechanism
