Mozambique - Contingent Emergency Response Project : Environmental and Social Management Plan

Overview & Synopsis

The Mozambique Contingent Emergency Response Project (CERP) is an Investment Project Financing (IPF) through which emergency response expenditures can be financed with funds repurposed through the Rapid Response Option (RRO). The CERP is one of the World Bank’s contingent financing mechanisms in the enhanced Crisis Preparedness and Response Toolkit (CPRT), available to the Government of Mozambique (GoM) to access rapid Bank financing to respond to an eligible crisis or emergency. The CERP is prepared in advance of crisis for which the GoM would seek support from the World Bank to finance any eligible crisis response expenditures. The CERP has a duration of six years and does not have any committed funding at approval. Within the implementation period, the CERP can be activated multiple times, depending on the occurrence of eligible emergencies and the availability of funds in the Mozambique World Bank portfolio from which the funds are repurposed to finance CERP activities.
