Resumen
Descripción
The Gambian authorities completed the
2007 poverty reduction strategy paper (PRSP) annual progress
report (APR) in October 2008. This is the first APR for the
country's second PRSP, which covers the years 2007 to
2011.' The overall strategic priorities of the PRSP
are: (i) macroeconomic stability and effective public
resource management; (ii) promotion of pro-poor growth and
employment through private sector development; (iii)
improved basic social services; (iv) strengthened local
communities and civil society organizations (CSOs); and (v)
mainstreamed multisectoral programs on gender, environment,
nutrition, and population. The PRSP incorporates programs
focused on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The APR
is complemented by a 2008 report on progress towards the
MDGs and a report which analyzes poverty related public
expenditures in 2007. The APR analyzes key elements of the
PRSP implementation, including macroeconomic performance,
public sector reform, real sector performance such as
agriculture and tourism, and the social sectors and
crosscutting issues such as HIV/AIDS and gender.
