| Summary: | This report discusses the process and
methodology involved in developing a practicable method for
undertaking a comparative analysis of transport sector and
poverty reduction strategies. The report notes that this is
an important milestone in a process that has been ongoing
since the 2000 Business Meeting and Initial General Assembly
of SSATP. Those meetings began the SSATP Strategic Review
and formulation of new governance arrangements. The outputs
of the Strategic Review resulted in demands being expressed
by country coordinators for the transport sector to better
demonstrate its contribution to poverty reduction and for a
move towards a more integrated, programmatic approach within
SSATP. The strategic goal of the program is to ensure that
transport sector strategies are firmly anchored in
overarching poverty reduction strategies was established at
the 2002 SSATP Stakeholders' Meeting in Maputo,
Mozambique. The guidelines are designed with a
participatory methodology for the comparative assessment,
which was tested out by three countries: Guinea, Rwanda and
Tanzania during the first half of 2003. These guidelines
are the result of the experimentation and verification by
transport and poverty reduction strategy personnel in
sub-Saharan Africa. |
