Committee Members Designation Position<\/p>\n

The thesis aimed to evaluate the Yemeni legal framework in the fields of environment, social safeguards, and \u200eoccupational health and safety through a comparative analysis with the Environmental \u200eand Social Framework (ESF) of the World Bank, in order to measure the degree of \u200ealignment between national legislation and international standards and assess the \u200eeffectiveness of their application within Yemen\u2019s institutional and legislative context\u200e.<\/p>\n

The study yielded several key findings summarized as follows:<\/p>\n

– A preliminary level of compatibility was identified between Yemeni laws and international standards in the fields of environment, social safeguards, and occupational health and safety.<\/p>\n

– Implementation gaps were found, stemming from several institutional and structural challenges.<\/p>\n

– Technical capacities were limited within some entities responsible for enforcing environmental, social, and health regulations.<\/p>\n

– Overlapping mandates were observed among institutions tasked with oversight and enforcement.<\/p>\n

– Effective mechanisms for monitoring, follow\u2011up, and institutional accountability were absent.\u200e<\/p>\n

In light of these findings, the researcher recommended the following:\u200e<\/p>\n

– Updating the legislative framework and regulatory bylaws governing environmental, \u200esocial, and occupational health and safety sectors in Yemen to align with \u200einternational standards.\u200e<\/p>\n

– Strengthening institutional coordination among the entities responsible for \u200eimplementing these regulations.\u200e<\/p>\n

– Developing enforcement and monitoring mechanisms to ensure effective \u200eimplementation of relevant laws and regulations.\u200e<\/p>\n

– Building technical and institutional capacities of competent authorities in the fields of \u200eenvironmental and social assessment and occupational health and safety.\u200e<\/p>\n

The defense session was attended by a number of academics, researchers, students, colleagues, and the researcher\u2019s family.<\/p>\n
