Resumen
Descripción
Yemen's dependence on the oil
sector as a source of economic growth is no longer
sustainable given the rate at which oil reserves are being
depleted. This study was conducted to assess the potential
contribution of the mineral sector to sustainable growth and
poverty alleviation in Yemen and to define the constraints
that will need to be overcome if this potential is to be
realized. In so doing it helps to define those areas of
government action and donor support that will need to be
sustained over the medium to long term. Finally, it will be
important for the Government of Yemen to signal its intent
and commitment to give to the mineral sector the type of
support that will be required over the medium to long term
in order to successfully harness the country's mineral
potential and bring about wider economic benefits.
