Mauritania - Economic Governance and Investment Management Support Project (PA2GI)

The proposed operation is a grant of three million units of account (UA 3 million) from the resources of the African Development Fund (ADF) to the Islamic Republic of Mauritania to finance the Economic Governance and Investment Management Support Project (PA2GI). PA2GI is an institutional support project intended to assist Mauritania in its efforts to ensure robust, sustainable and job-creating economic growth. More specifically, it involves striving to ensure public investment optimisation, private investment promotion and the strengthening of tax and land governance, in support of the national policy objectives of the National Accelerated Growth and Shared Prosperity Strategy (SCAPP) and the Presidential Priority Project (ProPEP). PA2GI comprises three components, namely: (i) strengthening the public investment process and private investment promotion; (ii) improving tax and land governance; and (iii) project management. Project activities will be implemented over a period of 36 months, from the entry into force of the ADF grant, scheduled for June 2021.
