| Summary: | The objectives of this Country
Environmental Analysis (CEA) for the Central African
Republic, are to provide an analytical basis for the
development of policy recommendations, assist in defining
priority investments to address the most significant
environmental management challenges, and inform
decision-making in relation to the achievement of
sustainable economic growth. This analysis consists of three
components, the first being an identification and estimation
of the principal sources, costs, and trends, of
environmental degradation. This is followed by an analysis
of the current institutional capacity for environmental
management. Finally, priority environmental issues are
analysed, leading to a set of policy and investment
recommendations. The three most important priorities are:
environmental management in the mining sector; management of
forests and wildlife resources; and promoting growth that is
resilient to climate change. Two generic CEA tasks were also
undertaken: an analysis of the costs of environmental
degradation, and an assessment of institutional capacity for
environmental management. Recommendations for policy,
investment, and technical assistance are presented as short,
medium, or long term priorities, in table format, together
with an indication of the primary responsibility for each
action, and an initial budget estimate for the investment,
and technical assistance recommendations. |
