| Summary: | With rapid urbanization and an
increasing number of publicly-funded urban projects, there
is a growing demand to address complex land acquisition and
involuntary resettlement issues in urban settings. A variety
of major urban projects in areas such as urban development,
renewal or upgrading, urban transport, urban watershed
management, water supply and sanitation, and urban solid
waste management require substantial land acquisition and
resettlement efforts that raise significant risks to people
and investments. Governments and international financing
institutions must identify these risks early and manage them adequately. |
