Recommendations

  • Senegal should provide adequate budget lines to respond to spending needs on climate resilience building initiatives, and to allow men and women engaged in agriculture to have access to financial services.
  • The country should establish necessary measures to increase agricultural productivity, while increasing the size of irrigated areas and the use of agriculture inputs such as fertilizer.
  • Senegal should also reinforce data collection, management and reporting on Malabo indicators in order to report on more indicators for the next round of the Biennial Revieew reporting.
