We recognize that Community Engagement is key to sustainable project development. As such, engagement with beneficiary communities are carried out through out the project life cycle. In order to build trust and get the buy-in of the project beneficiaries, consultation with and sensitization of community members can not be overemphasized. Community engagement helps to create awareness among community members about a project and sensitize stakeholders on the project benefits, ensure State and Local Government support and participation and collaboration of community members before project commencement. Below are pictures from engagements carried out across sites in 17 States proposed for the Minimum Subsidy Tender (MST). These engagements were carried out by the REA/NEP team.
