Mali: Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper

International Monetary Fund

No 2003/039, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: This paper examines the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) for Mali. The PRSP is an expression of the government’s desire to engage in development activity that is more intense, more organized, more consensus-based, and more effective, and capable of bringing about lasting poverty reduction. Although redistribution activities and social protection systems are necessary in the short term to reduce the impact of poverty, it is above all a matter of integrating these activities into long-term strategies that will put the poor in a position to help further their own economic and social well-being.
