policy environment, and increased institutional and human resource capacities will lead to a sustainable overall reduction of poverty and hunger. USAID/Senegal is committed to conduct impact evaluations on all programs over $20 million over the life of the program and will measure for impact three to five years after the completion. The highestlevel objectives under the FTF framework will be analyzed using the standard indicators presented therein. Under the Senegal FTF initiative, four programs will undergo the requisite impact evaluation: the Agriculture-Nutrition program, the Capacity Building for Agriculture Education and Research Project (CBAER), Wula Nafaa, and the Economic Growth Project (PCE). When necessary, USAID/Senegal will create a terms of reference or utilize existing central mechanisms in order to complete the impact evaluation. As discussed above, the Mission is committed to building capacity within the host government and host-country stakeholders to ensure quality data at the impact evaluation level. 6. FINANCIAL PLANNING Table 2 below illustrates that the private sector contribution is fairly significant at about 10 percent, primarily within agriculture. The plan estimates sector-specific funding by source over a five-year period beginning in 2011. After central and local government contributions have been estimated, there remains a gap. This remaining gap of about $1.3 billion (rate of exchange for illustrative purposes 500 FCFA = $1.00) is expected to be filled by donors and the private sector. Further commitments and new pledges for the CIP and associated Social and Economic Policy Document (DEPS 17 ) will be announced during the Donor Consultative Group. Table 2.

However, the DEPS document needs to be validated and is already delayed until the first quarter of 2011. The World Bank prepares the document for six to eight months after validation before the Donor Consultative Group can meet to discuss the GOS budget gaps, find additional funds, and pledge new commitments. (Only after completion of the DEPS - PRSP-III equivalent - do donors pledge new commitments.) Based on this timing, new commitments will be made in late 2011 at the earliest. In addition, Senegal’s presidential elections will take place in early 2012. 17 The Social and Economic Policy Document (DEPS) is equivalent to PRSP-III 28
Given recent history, it is unlikely the Donor Consultative Group would make any new pledges before the 2012 elections. At the end of 2005 Senegal designed their PRSP II for investment years 2006 – 2010. However, the presidential election was scheduled for February of 2007, over one year later. In this instance, it was not until the post-election cabinet was put into place and after the parliamentary elections were held in May 2007 that donors convened the Donor Consultative Group in October 2007 to announce strategic adjustments of commitments in progress and new pledges for the PRSP strategy period. It is conceivable that the Donor Consultative Group, therefore, could convene as late as October 2012 to address commitment gaps and confirm and count new pledges. Half of the gap is covered by already committed funds as illustrated in the current three-year rolling plan, Table 3 below. Currently, the GOS has sufficient funds from locally financed capital expenditures and donors to carry the CIP from 2011 to 2013. The level of political will to support the agriculture sector will be tested during 2011 as capital expenditures are drawn upon. The GOS Ministry of Finance prepares a three-year rolling investment plan. The most recent was developed in June-July 2010 for the years 2011-2013. The following information was extracted from the comprehensive Ministry of Finance plan submitted and approved by the Parliament in 2010. This table suggests that the donors would mobilize $387.4 million dollars, which is half of the gap mentioned in the CIP plan. Table 3.

The three-year plan in Table 3 is based on funding commitments, and excludes the private sector. The funding priorities of donors are overwhelmingly focused on the agriculture sector. The USG, based on 2010 commitments, represents about 24 percent of total sector contributions over the next three years; with a 42 percent share of agriculture sector contributions over the same period. This is in line with the USG aspiration to assume leadership of related donor groups. USAID/Senegal is also leading the other donors by planning for agriculture related investments through 2015. Although all ongoing donors’ investments are coordinated around the final CIP at current commitment levels, new pledges that will be directly tied to the CIP will be announced iteratively. Some donors will invest during 2011 to design activities that best target the CIP. 29
