USAID/South Sudan compliance-oriented field training for AORs and CORs builds off of the January 2013 “Life-of-Project Environmental Compliance and Environmentally Sound Design and Management (ESDM)” training workshops. As the individuals with primary responsibility for environmental compliance of the projects and activities under their purview, the objective is to teach CORs and AORs field inspection best practices to ensure environmental compliance. The training will cover sector-specific best practices not covered previously (and identified as an ongoing training need) and link practices to development objectives in South Sudan. This will be conducted by providing an overview of sector-specific best practices in a classroom setting, and through field visits to assess EMMP implementation.
