Green Economy Assessment Study - Senegal

This Exploratory Report on the Green Economy (ERGE) Green Economy Assessment Study - Senegal was created under the Green Economy Initiative launched by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 2008. It aims to enable Senegal to seize the opportunities offered by the green economy. Firstly, it seeks to demonstrate, based on strong macroeconomic arguments, the merits of investing in sectors producing goods and services that add value to, or are respectful of, the environment. It then aims to give guidance on means of promoting green investments that benefit the poor in order to drive the “Emerging Senegal” strategic plan.
