| Summary: | The objectives of the project ($9.37
million, 1996-2001) were to (a) enhance the capacity of the
mining sector institutions to carry out their functions of
encouraging and regulating investments in the mining sector
in an environmentally sound manner and (b) support the use
of techniques and mechanisms that will improve productivity,
financial viability and reduce the environmental impact of
small-scale mining operations. It had two components:
Strengthening of Mining Sector Institutions, and Assistance
to Small-scale Mining Enterprises. The project took into
account lessons learned from three previous operations in
Ghana which focused on developing the mining sector: the
Export Rehabilitation project, the Export Rehabilitation
Technical Assistance project, and the Mining Sector
Rehabilitation project. |
