Sustainable development is crucial to the transition process. The EBRDs
investment staff are trained on the requirements of the Bank's Environmental
Policy, and the EBRD supports sustainable development as part of every project.
Some projects are specifically designed to make environmental improvements in
the municipal, power, and industry sectors. Other projects incorporate
environmental components, such as reducing greenhouse gas emission,
implementing worker protection standards, or treating waste water.
The EBRD describes key environmental and social challenges for each country
and sector in the country strategies and sector policies. These also outline
how the EBRD can contribute to addressing those issues.
