Foreword
This Guidance Note on Poverty and Social Dimensions in Urban Projects aims to assist Asian Development Bank (ADB) staff, including practitioners and specialists working on their behalf, to effectively address the poverty and social dimensions of ADB’s urban operations aligned with Strategy 2020’s inclusive growth agenda. It provides practical guidance in strengthening the link between urban investments and poverty reduction, by making better use of poverty and social analysis as a resource for successful projects.
The purpose of this guidance note is to ensure that advice related to poverty and social dimension issues in urban projects is relevant and timely, addresses the key poverty and social concerns, maximizes opportunities for positive outcomes, reduces or mitigates risks of negative impacts, and is well integrated throughout the project cycle. It complements the Handbook on Poverty and Social Analysis (2012), which provides general guidance on incorporating poverty and social dimensions into ADB operations.
The guidance note consists of three parts: why poverty and social dimensions matter (section II), what the key poverty and social issues are (section III), and how to design inclusive urban projects (section IV).
I trust that readers will find this guidance note useful when considering how best to incorporate poverty and social dimensions in urban projects.
