Study Notes

Introduction to ESS5

  • ESS5 recognizes project-related land acquisition and restrictions on land use can negatively impact communities.
  • This can lead to physical displacement (e.g., loss of homes), economic displacement (e.g., loss of income sources), or both.
  • Involuntary resettlement occurs when people or communities don't have the right to refuse land acquisition or use restrictions.
  • Land acquisition includes outright purchase, expropriation, and acquisition of access rights.
  • Restrictions on land use, include limitations on agricultural, residential, commercial or other land use.

Objectives of ESS5

  • To avoid involuntary resettlement or to minimize it when unavoidable.
  • To prevent forced evictions.
  • To mitigate the negative social and economic impacts of land acquisition or use restrictions through appropriate compensation.
  • To avoid or minimize adverse economic, social and environmental risks resulting from displacement.

Scope of Application

  • The applicability of ESS5 is established during the environmental and social assessment in ESS1.
  • The focus is on communities affected by project activities.
  • This ESS addresses potential risks and impacts on communities.

Requirements of ESS5

  • ESS5 addresses potential negative impacts on communities.
  • Occupational health and safety are addressed in ESS2.
  • Negative environmental impacts and existing pollution are mentioned in ESS3.
  • Projects may involve land acquisition or restrictions on its use leading to physical and/or economic displacement.
  • Avoidance is preferred, but resettlement may be unavoidable.
