Short Statement: "The most important phase is the consultation with local people, which should be interactive, because the people have no idea of the shock that they are going to have when they are displaced from where they are used to live from long ago (this idea comes from my experience on displacement caused by Large Dams, both in West Africa and in France) and the lack of information is always an issue through the process of displacement."
