Madagascar example
Local socio-economic and
environmental conditions
•The zone has been completely deforested and is very seriously eroded;
•The zone is poor in biodiversity, there are no natural reserves and no threatened or endangered
species exist in the plantation zone;
•Little plant cover, regularly destroyed by fire;
•Acid, very infertile soils unsuitable for large-scale food production;
•Low population density: around 15 habitants per square kilometre;
•Agricultural activity limited to the vicinity of the villages and in stream bottoms (subsistence
farming), extensive zebu farming;
•Very limited economic activity; virtually non-existent
•No access to education, health or veterinary services;
•Problems with rendering water drinkable and the purification of waste water, high rate of
diarrhoea and child mortality;
•Landlocked region

E and ESR
Environmental and Economic Social Responsibility
of the project
Investors must be prepared to be involved in a responsible procedure complying with general
international frameworks and international standards for social responsibility.
They must undertake ex ante impact studies on the environmental, economic, social and food
security conditions (production, access to food supplies, etc.) of their projects.
© Copyright New Ecologic Oil 2008
These assessments, certified by an independent organisation, will in particular demonstrate
concern for the project host nation: this interest lies in the spin-offs from a value-added
production procedure involving the rural sector and/or an improvement in food security,
either directly, through increased production, or indirectly by boosting employment and the
income of the local populations.
For a procedure to be seen as “responsible”, an investor must undertake a three-way dialogue,
as transparent as possible, with the national authorities, the territory-based groups and the
local population.

The 8 performance criteria of the FIC
The Financial Investment Company of the World Bank
© Copyright New Ecologic Oil 2008
The signatory finance provider of the Equator Principles must guarantee that the projects it finances within
a PED is compliant with the most recent version of the Performance Criteria, the Environment, Health and
Safety Directives of the FIC; this must be downstream of a social and environmental assessment.
1- Social and environmental assessment and management of project impacts
2- Respect for basic rights and principles in the workplace
3-Prevention and reduction of polluting emissions
4- Respect for public health and safety
5- Reparation and compensation where land is acquired and populations forcibly
removed
6- Preservation of biodiversity and natural resources
7- Protection of the most at-risk native communities
8- Preservation of cultural heritage
