| Summary: | The purpose of this country
environmental analysis (CEA) is to assist the Government of
Cote d'Ivoire, development partners and civil society
to integrate environmental issues into policy dialogues and
country programming through: a) assessing environmental
priorities in Cote d'Ivoire, b) identifying
environmental implications of key policies, c) evaluating
the country's institutional capacity to address their
priorities; and d) identifying practical environmental
governance, financial, institutional and policy solutions to
promote environmentally and socially sustainable natural
resources management coupled with sustainable growth. This
CEA is also expected to contribute toward the inclusion or
mainstreaming of environmental considerations into
macro-economic and sector policies and programs, in addition
to the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP), which are a
prerequisite to sustainable development. This CEA study
further complements ongoing efforts by the Bank in the
mining, petroleum, cocoa, and agricultural sectors. In sum,
the purpose of this CEA is to improve the analytic basis for
environmental decision making to help ensure that the
efforts to support poverty reduction, broad-based reforms
and environmental management are mutually reinforcing. This
CEA aims to promote in particular the Government's
efforts toward realizing millennium development goal (MDG):
ensure environmental sustainability. In addition, by
reducing the disease burden of environmental risk factors,
environmental sustainability underpins the achievement of
most MDGs, given that many MDGs have an environmental health component. |
