Comunidad Autonoma de Andalucia
The proposed project consists in (i) upgrading of the teaching and research facilities through new construction and renovation of existing buildings, as well as contributing to increasing and improving the space available for teaching and research activities and (ii) financing of eligible intangibles and wage costs of scientists and other academics.
The objective of the project is to co-finance the Junta de Andalucía budgetary outlays for capital investments and research expenditures in the ten public universities in the Comunidad Autónoma de Andalucía (CAA) to improve university infrastructure in order to provide the student population with higher education with improved quality, to expand research activities and to facilitate and support innovation.
Educational facilities are not specifically mentioned in the EIA Directive on Environmental Impact Assessment, though the project may be covered by Annex II of the Directive in relation to urban development. During appraisal the Bank’s services will verify whether any EIA is required and the environmental effects of the project.
As a public administration entity the promoter is required to follow EU public procurement rules (2004/17/EC and 2007/18/EC) including publication of contract notices in the EU Official Journal as implemented by national law, if and where appropriate. Projects with values below the EU thresholds will be procured according to the provisions laid down in the regional legislation.
