In 2010, the World Bank initiated a technical assistance program in social protection with the Government of Senegal, with a focus on safety nets. The World Bank and the government identified a number of technical notes and training sessions tailored to the immediate needs of the government. This Senegal safety net assessment integrates and summarizes the content of these technical notes. Poverty is a serious concern in the country, with the economy displaying significant vulnerabilities. While the government has been quick to respond to past crises, some of the measures taken by the government have had certain drawbacks. Also, factors such as poorly targeted support and rising prices have detracted from the efforts taken by the government. A well designed and implemented national safety net system is thus of utmost importance. This document examines the various factors involved in the creation and implementation of a well-designed safety net system for Senegal.

Fin 2010, la Banque mondiale a lancé, en collaboration avec le Gouvernement du Sénégal, un programme d'assistance technique sur la protection sociale, tout particulièrement les filets sociaux. La Banque mondiale et le Gouvernement ont identifié plusieurs notes techniques et séances de formation « juste à temps » adaptées aux besoins immédiats du Gouvernement qui devaient être réalisées dans ce cadre. Cette Évaluation des filets sociaux au Sénégal introduit et résume le contenu de ces notes techniques. Au Sénégal, la pauvreté reste élevée et a stagné ces dernières années. Au plan national, l'économie est fréquemment affectée par des chocs importants qui ont des effets sur la croissance économique. Le Gouvernement et les partenaires internationaux clés ont conclu que la mise en place d'un système de filets sociaux ciblés était préférable à la poursuite des subventions générales des prix. La Revue des programmes de filets sociaux a identifié 12 programmes actuellement mis en œuvre par le Gouvernement au début de la décennie. En réponse à la priorité accrue accordée aux filets sociaux par le Gouvernement, des efforts supplémentaires seront nécessaires pour faire en sorte que le système national de filets sociaux sénégalais repose sur un cadre institutionnel efficace. Il sera essentiel que les programmes dispersés fassent place à une approche système. La coordination des politiques et des actions liées au développement du système de protection sociale devra favoriser l'harmonisation et l'intégration des programmes et soutenir le développement de dispositifs opérationnels communs (en particulier pour ce qui est des mécanismes de ciblage et de registre central) ou cohérents et compatibles
