potential, strengthen their competitiveness and create new enterprises.
• Maximise the “demonstration effect” – Provide operational support to selected
enterprises to show the benefits of pro-trade policies and generate demand for
advisory and material services provided by TSIs
• Link small-scale producers to the world – Communities in remote areas and
SMEs owned by women and youth to be integrated into the global value chain.
Case study: Senegal
The Senegal Context:
The Government of Senegal has adopted a plan to jumpstart the economy
and reduce poverty by using the untapped export potential of the productive sector to drive wealth and job creation. One of the most significant
initiatives involves implementing the recently adopted Accelerated Growth
Strategy (Stratégie de Croissance Accélérée, SCA) for 2007-2011, which is
also aligned with the Government’s 2006-2010 poverty reduction strategy
paper (PRSP II). In collaboration with the national stakeholders, ITC has
developed an integrated trade development programme for Senegal, which
supports Senegal’s export development vision. It aims at strengthening
the international competitiveness of enterprises in the identified priority
sectors, the capacity of trade support institutions (TSIs), as well as the public-private dialogue.
