The studies assessed the human rights impact of 3 energy supply projects<\/strong>\u2013 the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (Manyara region), the Regional Rusumo Falls Hydroelectric Project (Kagera region) and rural energy supply projects (Mwanza region) \u2013 and 2 projects involving transport infrastructure<\/strong> \u2013 the Tanzania Strategic Cities project (Arusha & Dodoma regions) and the Dar es Salaam \u2013 Moshi railway (Kilimanjaro region). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since taking office in 2005, the late President Magufuli has considered infrastructure development as a key element for achieving Tanzania\u2019s industrialisation and development goals<\/strong>. He declared that \u201cif you want to grow economically, you first invest in infrastructure that will stimulate growth<\/em>\u201d. As a result, many large-scale infrastructure projects are and have been ongoing in the country, to deliver road infrastructure, upgrade the country\u2019s railway systems and airports, and to increase and diversify the country\u2019s energy supply through natural gas and hydropower facilities, to name but a few.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

While infrastructure projects promise positive development, employment and economic growth, the sector\u2019s rapid expansion also raises its potential for adverse impacts on the communities and environments<\/strong> in which projects are implemented or on those involved in the execution of the projects. Large-scale infrastructure projects require urgent attention from a human rights perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Central to the studies presented in this volume are questions of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(1) human rights due diligence<\/strong> by implementing companies: what are companies doing to respect human rights, to prevent human rights harm and to mitigate negative effects?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(2) community impacts<\/strong> of specific infrastructure projects: what are the actual or potential impacts as experienced by communities, and how do they relate to any prevention\/mitigation measures taken by implementing companies?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(3) access to remedy<\/strong> in case of harm: are there mechanisms and procedures in place for people to voice their grievances and get effective redress for negative impacts, in case they occur?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(4) community consultation, participation and awareness<\/strong>: how (much) were communities involved in the design, assessment, implementation and mitigation of infrastructure projects?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
