Abstract*

This program document in a series of three, development policy operation (DPO-1) to the Republic of Ghana for special drawing rights to support the Government of Ghana (GoG) as it implements reforms under its Natural Resources and Environmental Governance (NREG) program.

Development Objective

The proposed DPO-1 selectively supports reform efforts by GoG in three key natural resources and environment (NRE) sectors for sustainable growth and development#forestry and wildlife, mining, and environmental protection. The objectives of this first DPO series are to: (a) ensure predictable and sustainable financing of the forest and wildlife sectors and effective forest law enforcement; (b) improve mining sector revenue collection, management, and transparency; (c) address social issues in forest and mining communities; and (d) integrate environmental considerations across sectors supporting growth through Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), and an inter-sectoral climate change strategy.
