CONCLUSION

340. The Poverty Reduction and Growth Strategy (SCRP) is the new unifying framework for all sectoral strategies and constitutes the background document for government interventions for the period 2007-2009. Serving as an operationalization framework for the government's Strategic Development Approaches (SDAs), the 2007-2009 SCRP was prepared with the participation of all segments of Beninese society.

341. The success of this strategy will depend largely on its degree of ownership by the various stakeholders concerned. It thus requires that:

• the units responsible for implementing the strategy, both at the governmental level and at the level of grassroots communities, effectively own its content; • the government makes sustained efforts to mobilize resources and utilize them on a priority basis for the effective implementation of the strategy, in accordance with the Paris Declaration; • institutional and human capacities are strengthened at all levels (central and local); • the actions of the government’s technical and financial partners fall within and are harmonized with the frame of reference represented by the SCRP.

342. To minimize all these risks, the government intends to strengthen and perpetuate the periodic consultations with all stakeholders and to implement a high-performance monitoring and evaluation system that will make it possible at all times to assess the progress made and plan the necessary corrective measures.

343. In order to render the SCRP operational, the government prepared a Priority Action Program (PAP) for SCRP implementation. This PAP recapitulates the investments that will enhance the visibility of the major measures and actions which will help to accelerate growth and reduce poverty. It links the SCRP, the different sectoral strategies, and the program budgets of the ministries.
