MICI-BID-BR-2023-0216
Curitiba's Sustainable Urban Mobility Program — Request II
Country: Brazil
Reception date: July, 26 2023
Current Status: Open
Requesters:
A group of Residents of the city of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil.
Summary of the Request
The Request describes potential harm to the Requesters' living conditions from the eviction of a commercial property for the construction of the Project.
Specifically, the Request alleges that the Project is compensating only property owners, but not occupants or tenants, and therefore no payments for lost profits or resettlement options are contemplated.
Recent actions
During the Assessment stage, because of the Program’s resettlement plan, the startup of the execution of its works, and the Requesters needing a resolution of their situation in view of their impending economic resettlement, MICI detected the need to formulate a reduced, intensive process aimed at resolving the dispute as quickly as possible. Therefore, the Assessment and the Consultation Phase stages were carried out together.
On October 30, 2023, as a result of a collaborative dialogue facilitated by MICI, the dispute resolution process culminated with the signing of an agreement between the Municipality of Curitiba, IDB Management and the Requesters. The Parties agreed on a set of support measures that would ensure that the transition of the Requesters’ business to a new location was efficient, planned and with a minimized impact to their livelihood.
On December 11, 2023, the Assessment and Consultation Phase Report, which includes the Agreement reached and its Monitoring Plan, was distributed to the Board of Executive Directors for consideration under short procedure. With the approval of the Monitoring Plan by the Board of Directors on December 15, the Monitoring Stage of the Agreement began. Full compliance with the Agreement is expected in 2024.
Past actions
On August 1, 2023, MICI notified the Requesters and IDB Management of the registration of the Request.
On September 18, 2023, the MICI determined that the Request was eligible because it met all the eligibility criteria set forth in the MICI Policy.
The eligibility determination process has at no time been an investigation of the Project or to the IDB . The fact that the Request was declared eligible is not a determination of compliance or non-compliance by the institution with its Policies.
The Request was referred to the Consultation Phase by decision of the Requesters.
