O prograpa Pro PALOP-TL ISC (Fase II) deu continuidade ao Projecto Pro-PALOP-TL-ISC (Fase I), implementado entre 2014 e 2017.
O Acordo que financia a Fase 2 do Programa Pro PALOP-TL ISC foi assinado em novembro de 2018. Este relatório abrange o período completo de desenvolvimento e implementação do programa, de novembro de 2018 a maio de 2023.
Durante o ano de 2019, na fase inicial do programa, os Planos Anuais de Trabalho (PTAs) foram elaborados em todos os países beneficiários. Estes planos foram desenvolvidos de forma participativa e inclusiva, permitindo identificar as necessidades específicas de cada instituição a nível nacional, dentro do contexto mais amplo do programa. A abordagem foi considerada uma boa prática por várias avaliações e monitoramentos do programa.

The Action aims at contributing to peace and justice through the promotion of stronger institutions and the rule of law via a multi-sector and multi-stakeholder’s approach. Emphasis will be placed on the reduction of corruption, money laundering, and organised crime (with a focus of drug trafficking) through prevention, investigation, and criminalisation to improve accountability and compliance with good governance principles.
The Action builds upon and complements the results achieved through the implementation of the programme ‘Supporting the Consolidation of the Rule of Law in PALOP countries and Timor-Leste’ (PACED) financed under the European Development Fund (EDF), which ended in June 2022. It assumes that through these achievements the target countries can now advance a step forward and start putting into practice (operationalisation) the support provided by the EU in these thematic sectors in the past decade.
The economy of the sub-Saharan region is facing a combination of shocks and policy challenges rarely seen before, as Russia’s war of aggression in Ukraine is creating major stresses for the global economy, weakening the postpandemic recovery and putting macroeconomic stability at risk. Economic policymakers face an extremely complex policy environment which poses difficult trade-offs to address the emerging challenges in addition to the unprecedented longer-term challenges, such as increased inequality, escalating fragility and conflict, a growing digital divide, and the existential threat of climate change; and to continue to pursue inclusive sustainable economic development.
In this context, the overall aim of the proposed intervention is to build capacity in Sub-Saharan Africa in economic governance in order to build resilience to macroeconomic challenges and thrive in opportunities (such as green transition, gender equality, good governance and digitalisation) and align with regional and national development plans, including green strategic plans and commitments. More specifically, capacity development of National Governments and economic institutions, notably Ministries of Finance, Revenue (Tax and Customs) Authorities, Central Banks, Financial Sector Supervisors, Anti-Corruption Agencies, and Statistical Agencies in 45 SubSaharan countries (listed under section 2.2); as well as of Regional Organisations in core economic aspects targeted by this action will support the consolidation of macroeconomic, financial and fiscal frameworks and the integration
of climate change and gender equality aspects to strategic allocation of resources. The action will build on the achievements of the hands-on capacity development provided to countries and regional organisations in the SubSaharan region by the IMF’s network of Regional Capacity Development Centres (RCDCs) and the IMF’s Africa Training Institute (ATI).
