Sierra Leone

This paper presents the status report on preparatory activities for the full Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) for Sierra Leone. The governance and institutional arrangements proposed in the interim PRSP (I-PRSP) for the preparation of the full PRSP have all been set up and are currently functioning. The I-PRSP focused on a small number of realistic and meaningful indicators and targets. However, these monitoring indicators will be expanded during the preparation of the full PRSP to include qualitative indicators, which will be identified during the Focus Group Discussions and Participatory Poverty Assessments Consultations.Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers;expenditure, public expenditure, poverty reduction strategy, poverty analysis, poverty reduction strategy paper, social impact analysis, public expenditure review, focus group, data collection, focus group discussions, public expenditure reviews, impact analysis, household survey, expenditures, living standards, household income, medium-term expenditure framework, fiscal revenues, public expenditure tracking survey, expenditure survey, participatory poverty assessments, expenditure tracking, public expenditure tracking, expenditure framework, poverty assessments, mtef, medium-term expenditure
