Development Objective

The objective of this operation is to support growth in the non-extractive sectors and fiscal consolidation. It is structured around two pillars. The first pillar supports competitiveness by addressing trade barriers and skills shortage, and by expanding access to energy; and promotes increased agricultural productivity.
