Report on the activities of the Independent Redress Mechanism

The Independent Redress Mechanism (IRM) report details the processing of four specific project complaints (FP039, FP121, FP146, and FP001) and the implementation of its 2022-2023 work plan. Key operational activities included the development of a Gender Strategy Note, the creation of an educational board game called "road to redress," and the provision of mediation training for Direct Access Entities (DAEs). Financially, the IRM spent USD 1.34 million of its USD 1.65 million approved 2022 budget, representing an 81% utilisation rate.

• The IRM processed four complaints during the reporting period: two new complaints regarding FP039 (Egypt Renewable Energy Financing Framework) were merged and are in the initial steps phase; a complaint regarding FP121 (Paraguay results-based payments) was closed after the complainant was granted a seat on the project's steering committee; a compliance review for FP146 (Bio-CLIMA in Nicaragua) was completed and submitted to the Board; and a self-initiated inquiry into FP001 (Peru wetlands) was closed following the execution of four undertakings.
• The IRM is implementing a strategy to mainstream gender considerations across its five functions through a Gender Strategy Note and staff training conducted in late 2022.
• To improve the capacity of Direct Access Entities (DAEs), the IRM hosted the 7th GRAM Partnership webinar on human rights principles and conducted two company-community mediation trainings in November 2022 for 18 participants.
• The IRM's 2022 budget utilisation reached 81%, with actual expenditures totaling USD 1.34 million against an approved budget of USD 1.65 million.
• The IRM conducted outreach activities including a webinar for over 60 participants in Kenya, participation in the Amfori Annual Event, and two side events at COP27 in Egypt.
