¡¡¡¡¡¡The regional technical assistance project RETA5783:Strategic Environmental Framework (SEF) of GMS with a duration of 2 years starting October 1999.

¡¡¡¡A. The project was implemented by ADB, with a technical assistance grant from the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The six countries of GMS participated in the project. The SEF project was executed by a team of consultants lead by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), in partnership with the UNEP Environment Assessment Programme for Asia and the Pacific (UNEP EAP/AP) and the Mekong River Commission (MRC) based on cooperation of the six countries.

¡¡¡¡B. The overall goal of the SEF project is to assist GMS country governments and the ADB improve environmental protection by helping to ensure the environmental and social sustainablility of economic development undertaken with the GMS in general, and in particular within energ/water resource and transportation sectors of the GMS countries and the ADB¡¯S GMS programme.

¡¡¡¡C. The outputs. The identification and analysis of GMS environment-development ¡°Hotspots¡± is one of the key approaches being utilized in the SEF project. Hotspots are areas representing the confict between economic development and environmental and social goals. Through a participatory process five priority GMS Hotspots have been identified, each Hotspot has been analysed in detail, and a program of strategic operational, policy and institutional recommendations formulated. The results are presented in a series of SEF background documents called GMS Priority Hotspot Profile and Strategic Program Reports, and the results and findings have been incorporated in the main SEF Project Report: Strategic Environmental Framework for the Greater Mekong Subregion.
