The IDB Grievance Protocol is part of the IDB Group's complaint system, through which the first line of attention to users is the project-level complaint and grievance mechanism. Users can also access IDB management grievance mechanisms, and as a last resort, the Independent Consultation and Investigation Mechanism (MICI). This annual IDB Grievance Protocol report provides an overview of grievances received and handled related to environmental and/or social issues in 2023. It includes key issues, comparative data from the two years of the Grievance Protocol implementation, lessons learned, and information regarding outreach efforts and next steps.
