In the wake of an acrimonious debate on big dams, the World Bank
brokered a global agreement on financing as well as on the sharing of
the rewards and risks of the controversial Nam Theun 2 hydroelectric
project in Lao PDR. Through this process, it prepared the project for
the country and the country for the project. Doing a Dam Better
describes how careful management, effective communications, and
technical expertise helped to reach consensus and nurtured
private-public partnerships, engaged stakeholders, strengthened the
country's development framework and poverty reduction efforts, and
addressed the project's environmental and social impacts.
