9.2. Arab Partners<br />
Arab and Islamic partners continue to play a significant<br />
role in financing infrastructure in <strong>Africa</strong>. Table 2 provides<br />
a summary of their contribution <strong>for</strong> infrastructure in<br />
<strong>Africa</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>2011</strong>, amounting to USD2.9bn. In 2010 the<br />
Arab Funds support almost doubled to (USD3.3bn)<br />
and seems to have stabilised at this level, with a<br />
slight reduction of 12% in <strong>2011</strong>. Annex 13 Arab Fund<br />
Coordination Group Commitments <strong>2011</strong> shows further<br />
details on additional Arab finance.<br />
Covering 32 recipient countries is a broad task, but<br />
Arab and Islamic support in <strong>2011</strong> was mainly limited<br />
to countries in the North and East <strong>Africa</strong>n Region.<br />
Major recipient countries accounted <strong>for</strong> 66% of total<br />
commitments including: Sudan with 26% (USD784m),<br />
Tunisia with 23% (USD420m), Morocco 13% (USD377m)<br />
and Mauritania 12% (USD348m).<br />
About 42% of total commitments went to projects<br />
in the energy sector, 34% to transport projects and<br />
10% to the water sector. In total Arab donors reported<br />
commitments aimed at the funding of 89 projects with<br />
an average volume of USD33m per project. Twenty-five<br />
