Infrastructure Action Plan in South Sudan: A Program for Sustained Strong Economic Growth
At the request of the Government of the Republic of South Sudan (GRSS), the African Development Bank Group (AfDB) has provided assistance in preparing this flagship Infrastructure Action Plan (IAP) aimed at putting in place an effective instrument for all stakeholders to collectively provide the necessary full-fledged support to address the country’s development challenges.
The IAP proposes a major program for the development of basic infrastructure in the decade ahead that, in conjunction with a range of other initiatives that build human capacities and labour force skills and strengthen institutions that will provide the basis for a transition to economic growth in the range of 9% a year in real terms in the non-oil economy.
