Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

According to the Bank’s website, the objective of this project is to: (1) strengthen competition in key enabling sectors and domestic revenue mobilization; (2) expand equitable access to health and education services; (3) promote the sustainable use of natural resources. In December 2021, Côte d’Ivoire adopted the National Development Plan (PND) 2021-2025, as its main strategic planning document to sustain high economic growth and inclusion in the medium-term. This operation directly supports the first three categories of actions of the PND and is aligned with the country’s climate change commitments and the Paris Agreement. The operation also supports outcome area four of the new corporate score card: effective macroeconomic and fiscal management. By improving tax revenue collection, it supports a stable fiscal environment that can help government manage debt and marshal resources to deliver services such as health, education, and infrastructure. The operation has three pillars: Pillar 1: Strengthen competition in key enabling sectors and domestic revenue mobilization; Pillar 2: Expand equitable access to health and education services; and Pillar 3: Promote the sustainable use of natural resources.

Early Warning System Project Analysis
For a project with severe or irreversible impacts to local community and natural resources, the Early Warning System Team may conduct a thorough analysis regarding its potential impacts to human and environmental rights.

The overall risk rating for the operation is assessed as substantial given its scope that requires sustained macroeconomic stability in a complex regional and global environment.
