The database assembled by NomoGaia analyzing public data regarding IFC’s potential impact on indigenous peoples is available on this page, both as a downloadable file and through the search function below.
Project Name | Project Number | Country | Category | Nature of Indigenous Risk |
---|---|---|---|---|
Canvest WTE | 36962 | China | B | This is in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region - but IFC concludes " no indigenous people are known to have been in areas or affected by projects |
Ecom Corp Loan | 36815 | World Region | A | Agricultural inputs could affect IPs if farms are coerced into new crops ("any development would be limited to replanting with higher producing coffee or cocoa plants") |
OAWPL and OAPWPL | 37086 | India | B | A greenfield purchase from a 'willing buyer' but where STs/SCs would not have held title does not meet PS7 ("no significant adverse impacts on bird - bats or Indigenous Peoples have been identified") |
Phoenix Tower BR | 36722 | Brazil | B | It would be important to know if this project will affect connectivity for IPs or if rollout will increase connectivity for non-IPs while using IP lands for infrastructure expansion |
SRF India BOPET | 37933 | India | B | IFC claims the footprint is empty but satellite imagery shows it populated with farmers. 21 percent of Madhya Pradesh are STs (Including 3 'Special Primitive Tribal Groups') |
Myanma Awba Group Company Limited | 35880 | Myanmar | B | Project footprints "across Myanmar" should consider IP impacts but IFC relies on formal titles and restricts analysis to "operational footprint" excluding all agriculture (CAO complaint resulted) |
Agrofertil Ext | 37602 | Paraguay | B | Agricultural inputs enable farm encroachment which wasn't analyzed |
Promasidor Nigeria Limited | 37143 | Nigeria | B | IFC asserts that PS7 is "not applicable" without considering where agricultural inputs will be sourced from or how far beyond the fence indigenous impacts might occur |
DCM Shriram Limited Bharuch II | 36511 | India | B | If brownfield expansion requires additional inputs from suppliers - SC and ST could be affected - but these impacts are not evaluated by IFC which is restricted to project footprint |
Indorama Port | 38096 | Nigeria | B | This is quasi-urban but there's very mixed land use in Onne including a large IPs population. IFC rejects their indigeneity: "There are no Indigenous Peoples in Nigeria |
