The document presents the project objective and four implementation components focused on reducing trade costs, strengthening regional coordination, enhancing value chains, and improving transport infrastructure. It includes the Environmental and Social Management Framework for both countries and a focused Environmental and Social Impact Assessment for the Niassa road rehabilitation segment Cuamba–Insaca and Cuamba–Metarica.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARIES OF:  \n(1) ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK  \nMALAWI  \n(2) ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK  \nMOZAMBIQUE  \n(3) ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT NIASSA,  \nMOZAMBIQUE  \nSOUTHERN AFRICA TRADE AND CONNECTIVITY PROJECT (FORMERLY  \nNACALA CORRIDOR)  \nThis document contains the following executive summaries under SATCP:  \n(i) Project Objective and Summary of Components of the Project  \n(ii) ESMF Malawi Executive Summary  \n(iii) ESMF Mozambique Executive Summary  \n(iv) ESIA Niassa Mozambique – Rehabilitation of the road segment Cuamba – Insaca and Cuamba-Metarica Executive Summary.  \nBrief Description of the Project  \nThe objective of the Project is to support Malawi and Mozambique in increasing regional trade coordination, reducing trade costs and time, developing regional value chains, and improving access to infrastructure.  \nBrief Description of the Project  \nThe main objective of the project is to support the Governments of Mozambique and Malawi in reducing trade and transport costs and increasing private investment along the Nacala and Beira corridors where the project will be implemented. The project will be implemented through four components: i) reduce trade costs; ii) strengthen regional coordination and project implementation; iii) strengthen value chains for regional integration; and iv) strengthen transport infrastructure to improve market access.  \ni. Component 1 aims to lower trade costs through trade facilitation, including border infrastructure, regulatory reforms and automation improvements. This provides a further opportunity to harmonize trade facilitation regimes. Trade facilitation improvements will combine simultaneous investments in ICT equipment and infrastructure with regulatory reforms (policies and procedures) and institutional capacity to strengthen trade and connectivity and to derive maximum impact from these investments. The component will focus on a Covid-19 response to support border agencies to manage goods safely and quickly, both during and after the Covid-19 crisis. The project will finance the expansion and rehabilitation of border posts in Malawi and Mozambique. The focus will also be on upgrading strategic capabilities (equipment, buildings, international accreditation, and skills development) to facilitate the movement of agricultural commodities along the corridors and to meet specific demands of private operators. Automation initiatives will be supported that will include upgrading Customs systems (Malawi), developing single window (Malawi), automating the management of agricultural trade (Malawi and Mozambique) and immigration system (Malawi) . Other initiatives supported would include border residency cards, simplified trader regimes, and support to the Ministries of Transport in both countries and the Public Private Partnership Commission (PPPC) in Malawi to improve their institutional capacity and their strategies to develop transport, connectivity, and logistics.  \nii. Component 2 will provide support to the existing Nacala Development Corridor Tripartite Committee (NDCTC) . The committee brings together government and private sector stakeholders from Mozambique, Malawi, and Zambia to collaborate and produce an efficient, predictable transport system with a reliable flow of logistics information that minimizes transport delays atthe port, borders, or intermodal transfers. The component will also support the NDCTC tripartite process to reduce barriers to trade and investment. Project activities will: Develop and implement  \npandemic/climate-related responses to ensure adequate trade flows between the countries; Remove non-tariff barriers, facilitate trade, and develop value chains between the corridor countries; Implement improved transport, transit, logistics and immigration procedures. Establish a corridor measurement and monitoring system; and Implement the Corridor Trip ","cbCaibDAwc7sBgP3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibDAwc7sBgP3","pdf",737834,1,43,"English","en",105,"# Executive
