Environmental and Social Management Framework (CGES) — PreGeFIP Project
Summary — The Environmental and Social Management Framework (CGES) for the PreGeFIP public financial management project of the MEF.
Key Findings
- Frames a public financial management project through its safeguards: the PReGeFiP environmental and social management framework, for a project of 60 million US dollars over five years, with component 1 on domestic resource mobilization at 25 million and an evidence-based policymaking line at 3.8 million.
- Devotes a full chapter to security risk rather than to environmental impact alone, with a simplified security risk assessment on three priority levels, mitigation measures for project staff, and conduct to follow in cases of kidnapping, sexual assault, and shooting or crossfire, plus stress management and wellbeing.
- Sets the macroeconomic case the project answers to: real GDP contracting 2.7 percent in volume, and constant-price GDP of 552.0 billion gourdes in 2025 against 658.3 billion in 2018, a fall of more than 106 billion constant gourdes and a cumulative drop of more than 16.0 percent over the period.
- Records tax revenue below 6 percent of GDP on average, described as the lowest level in the region, with fiscal receipts estimated at 5.2 percent of GDP in 2024 and a heavy reliance on indirect taxes.
- Names the depression as running seven years already, which is what distinguishes this from a single-year shock.
- Sets results indicators in operational terms, including the number of ministries for which 100 percent of budget expenditure is executed.
- Aligns with the World Bank's Environmental and Social Framework and carries the screening and monitoring instruments, including contractor questionnaires on whether works were suspended under the contract's GCC clause.
