Social Impacts of Large Dams Equity and Distributional Issues
2000
Review paper focusses on the area of agreement among protagonists of dams, that is some groups of people tend to be net losers from dam projects, as they are disproportionately affected by negative effects of dams while almost excluded from access to benefits generated.The paper makes the point that equity is more concerned about protecting the poor, the vulnerable. It also suggests a framework (set of principles, targeted actions at key stages of the planning process and a number of good or promising practices) that could help strive for a no-loser goal and, where losses are inevitable, turn some or most of the losers into winners.Website include the full text of: draft reportannex A: The Downstream Impact of Large Damsannex B: Perspective Paper on Gender and Large Dams
