Capacity Building

The main objective of the INREM-IP Plan Framework is to

help ensure that INREM subprojects are designed and
implemented in a way that fosters full respect for IPs

identity, dignity, human rights, livelihood systems, and

cultural uniqueness as defined by the IPs themselves to
enable them to (i) receive culturally appropriate social and
economic benefits, (ii) do not suffer adverse impacts as a
result of the project, and (iii) can participate actively in the
project.. This IPPF safeguards the rights of IPs to participate
project
and equitably receive culturally appropriate benefits from
the project. For this purpose, an IP plan (IPP) will be
prepared in participating areas and that an Ancestral
Domain Sustainable Development and Protection Plan
(ADSPP) will be enhanced or formulated in areas covered
by ancestral domain claims.
