Working Toward a Sustainable Solution to Flooding in Senegal

The World Bank helped the Senegalese government acquire emergency supplies in the aftermath of floods that forced nearly one million people to flee their homes.

 

As of August 2009, the World Bank had approved 122 projects for Senegal totaling about US$3.0 billion. The commitment value of 20 ongoing International Development Association (IDA)-financed operations is about US$700 million equivalent, with an undisbursed balance of about US$460 million.

Portfolio performance is discussed quarterly with the government.

The 20 operations are in :

  
  • agriculture
  • rural development
  • infrastructure
  • environment
  • transportation
  • population/health/nutrition
  • social protection
  • energy/water
  • public and private sector development, and
  • natural disaster management.
