This RPF is for the Nhlangano-Siphambanweni Water and Sanitation Project (NSWSP). This RPF is prepared to guide the preparation and implementation of the RAP for impacts that may be caused by civil work activities under Components 1 and 2 of the NSWSP, including associated activities. It sets out the principles and objectives governing the preparation and implementation of social risks and impacts mitigation measures when the specific impact location (s) of component 1
