It focuses on involuntary resettlement risks under the national legal framework and World Bank OP 4.12, covering land acquisition, displacement triggers, impacts on trees and agriculture, and constraints near high-tension corridors. The framework also addresses potential disruptions to livelihoods, gender inequalities, and the need for coordinated monitoring and avoidance scheduling through ESMP.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nRepublic of Chad  \nSociété Nationale d’Electricité  \nCameroon-Chad Power Interconnection Project Resettlement Policy Framework  \nExecutive Summary  \nCHAD  \nMarch 2020  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY  \nCONTEXT AND BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT COMPONENTS  \nThe project of interconnection between Chad and Cameroun and electrification in the provinces of MoyaKebbi East and Chari-Baguimi and in the city of N’Djamena answers to a need for strategic development at national, provincial and local levels. The final objective of the project is to improve energy access among communities, particularly with a program of rural electrification following the setup of an interconnected energetic corridor at continental level.  \nIn the frame of the preparation of the project, the Government of the Republic of Chad has developed a Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) in order to mitigate negative socio-economic impacts, following the national legal framework and the World Bank Operational Policies, particularly the OP 4.12 on involuntary resettlement. The project was initially funded by the AfDB, the WB being involved it was necessary to upgrade the Operational Safeguard Policies.  \nThe project has four components:  \n􀁺 Component 1: Creation of an HV interconnection line and substations (Chad Part);  \n􀁺 Component 2: Rural electrification of villages along the HV interconnection line (Chad Part);  \n􀁺 Component 3: Densification of N’Djamena distribution grid;  \n􀁺 Component 4: Institutional support for environmental and social monitoring of the project (this component is not covered within this document)  \nThe project goes through three regions: Mayo-Kebbi East , Chari-Baguirmi , and N’Djamena. The survey area is one the most populated in Chad.  \n􀁺 Chad land tenure system has a dual legal system, following both modern laws (Regime of registration or land title titling) and traditional laws (customary rights), as per the three laws of July 22nd 1967. No land title was recorded with the project area. However, in urban areas most lands are bounded.  \n􀁺 Strong gender inequalities still exist, especially related to financial autonomy, access to land, family rights, participation to socioeconomic and political life. Gender based violence, especially physical, against women are common for numerous women.  \n􀁺 Habitat: In average, households are composed of 5 to 6 individuals. In rural areas, most houses are made of mudbricks, without coating.  \n􀁺 Education: Most of the population in the regions affected by the project has a low-level schooling.  \n􀁺 Health: medical workers are spread unequally over the country, especially qualified ones. There are hospitals and health centers in the cities of Bongor, Guendeleng, Mandelia and N’Djamena  \n􀁺 Water: More than half of the households have access to clean water through improved water supply, but there are strong disparities among regions and backgrounds. Within the survey area, almost all villages have a hand operated well, most of the time built with the support of the government.  \n􀁺 Energy: Despite recent improvements, electricity is still a scarce resource for Chadian households.  \n􀁺 Economic activities: Agriculture and livestock raising are the two main economic activities in the survey area. Other income sources and livelihood activities include small shops, services and handicraft.  \nPOTENTIAL NEGATIVE SOCIAL IMPACTS OF THE PROJECT  \nRegarding the three first components, resettlement related risks are the following:  \n􀁺 There is no restriction related to agriculture under an HT line. Consequently, agricultural activities can be maintained.  \n􀁺 The highest trees (more than 10 meters) must be logged and compensated. Moreover, cultivating high tree species (such as mango tree or date palm) will be forbidden within a defined corridor.  \n􀁺 No public infrastructure hosting ill persons or children can be kept or built under the HT line.
