INTRODUCTION

Senegal has been a member of GGGI since November 2014. Senegal’s principal strategic focus in the coming 5-10 years is the successful implementation of policies to sustain strong macroeconomic growth and catalyze structural changes that targets poverty reduction and social inclusion. The Government of Senegal (GoS) recognized the need for change and adopted a very ambitious development strategy called “Plan Senegal Emergent” (PSE), the economic growth roadmap that ambitions to make Senegal an emerging country by 2035. The GoS, as outline in its NDCs, is increasingly aware that green growth approaches are essential to integrate within its economic growth strategies.  GGGI plans to support this initiative.  Taking stock from 2016 planned deliverables, the interventions in the 2017-2018 biennium program period will support the efforts in several strategic areas including Green Cities Development. Building on GGGI’s lessons learned in other countries and based from the current development priorities of the GoS as well as some of the ongoing green city initiatives of key development partners in the country, GGGI will accompany the Government of Senegal in the implementation of Green Secondary City Project, starting with three pilot cities in 2019.
