Greater Mekong Subregion: Regional Investment Framework Implementation Plan (2014-2018)

Abstract

The Greater Mekong Subregion Regional Investment Framework Implementation Plan, 2014-2018 (RIF-IP) identifies a robust pipeline of 92 high priority projects from among the more than 200 projects included in the Greater Mekong Subregion Regional Investment Framework, 2013-2022 (RIF). The total cost of the priority projects in the RIF-IP is estimated at US$30.1 billion, or approximately US$20 billion less than all of the projects included in the RIF. The 92 projects in the RIF-IP have been prioritized for their potential to attract support from development partners and the private sector. The RIF-IP sets forth the parameters for a resource mobilization campaign to address financing needs and establish a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system to track the status of individual projects and the RIF-IP as a whole.
