Project Objectives [from section 2 of PCN] JEDI will alleviate the impacts of annual floods in the Province of Jakarta (DKI Jakarta) and achieve reductions in associated socio-economic costs through: (i) priority rehabilitation of existing floodways and retention basins; and (ii) provision of technical expertise to improve stormwater drainage and flood control. Dredging and rehabilitation of existing floodways and retention basins will have immediate, positive impacts for over one million people who will no longer be directly affected by severe flooding, like the devastating February 2007 event. Beneficiaries will be predominantly poor communities living in flood-prone areas. Dredging and rehabilitation is only an entry point through which JEDI can begin to engage with and strengthen the capacity of the local government of DKI Jakarta to operate and maintain its flood control system. It represents a platform, a basis from which the World Bank can promote and support comprehensive flood mitigation interventions, not least of which is increased technical O&M capacity, and inter-agency coordination. JEDI has already generated momentum Page 2 towards creating inter-agency and inter-regional cooperation on a range of issues, including water resource management, environmental and social initiatives, and funding mechanisms. Regarding critical social safeguard issues, JEDI has introduced a rights-based approach to community engagement and social development ensuring that beneficiaries enjoy sustainable benefits from the project. Foremost in this endeavor is the development of a World Bank approved Resettlement Policy Framework that adequately engages with and addresses the needs of formal and informal communities alike. C.
