EXECUTIVE SUMMARYEXECUTIVE SUMMARYEXECUTIVE SUMMARYEXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The 2002 Annual Conference and Stakeholders Meeting of the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy Program (SSATP) marked a departure from the pattern of past meetings, and constituted a significant step on the path to transition to a “program approach”. For the first time, all components of the SSATP – Road Management Initiative (RMI), Rural Travel and Transport Program (RTTP), Trade & Transport (T&T) incorporating Railways Restructuring (RR), and Urban Mobility (UM) – organized their annual meetings under one roof. Consequently the meeting brought together a remarkable range of leading stakeholders involved in transport policy in some 34 sub-Saharan African countries. And among the more than 180 participants were Ministers and other high-level policy-makers, senior representatives of 16 regional economic communities, institutions and sub-regional organizations, country coordinators of the RMI and RTTP components, leading private sector players, donors, international organizations and international and regional experts.

The stakeholders’ conference and meeting was also significant because of its timing. New issues had been emerging in recent years which demanded a clear response. Some issues are internal to the SSATP program (new governance arrangements, the need to review the program’s strategic direction particularly in the light of the poverty reduction challenge and dependence on a diminishing number of bilateral donors). Other issues relate to new developments in the region – the African Union, New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD), the African Transport Ministers’ resolution that the SSATP should be a principal policy development tool – as well as to continuing challenges such as maintenance financing, transport safety, and improved access and mobility for the poor. It was vital that a full range of transport sector stakeholders were present so as to identify the most appropriate response to these challenges.

The meeting was intensive entailing a carefully structured sequence of plenary sessions, component meetings, and a stakeholders’ workshop. Held over four days, the participants heard about many new initiatives and examples of good practice, engaged actively in formal and informal debates and working sessions, and identified priority themes for the future direction of the SSATP program. A “market place” of displays and materials provided a focus for the sharing of ideas and experiences, and even the chance to test out an intermediate means of transport.

By the end of the meeting a series of priority actions – for individual SSATP components and for the program as a whole - had been identified for consideration in the immediate 2002/2003 Business Plan and in the longer-term strategic plan of SSATP. Among the priority issues for attention by SSATP in its future work are:

- advice and support with the development of integrated transport sector policiesintegrated transport sector policiesintegrated transport sector policiesintegrated transport sector policies, focusing in particular on their synergy with Poverty Reduction Strategy processes

(PRSP) and taking into account the needs of the rural poor as well as of trade across borders;

- improving the linkages between transport and poverty reductiontransport and poverty reductiontransport and poverty reductiontransport and poverty reduction, particularly through engaging in Poverty Reduction Strategy processes (PRSP), promoting appropriate travel and transport policies and initiatives, raising awareness about the importance of gender, environment and HIV/AIDS and supporting transport impact monitoring;

- support for policy initiatives that aim at the improved financing of roads maintenanceimproved financing of roads maintenanceimproved financing of roads maintenanceimproved financing of roads maintenance including rural roads and transport corridors;

- support for policy formulation, strategy implementation, awareness-raising and exchange of best practice to improve the safety and security of transport userssafety and security of transport userssafety and security of transport userssafety and security of transport users;

- dissemination of good practice, support to research, promotion of public-private partnerships and facilitation of capacity building to strengthen private sector private sector private sector private sector participation in transport financing and managementparticipation in transport financing and managementparticipation in transport financing and managementparticipation in transport financing and management;

- promotion of regional cooperationregional cooperationregional cooperationregional cooperation on transport issues, including support for the implementation of regional programs and databases, and stronger engagement with African initiatives in particular the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD);

- and engaging in dialogue with regional economic communitiesdialogue with regional economic communitiesdialogue with regional economic communitiesdialogue with regional economic communities to promote their adoption of the SSATP agenda, supporting new SSATP coordination functions at country level, and longer term modification of management arrangements which will match World Bank decentralization strategies.

The meeting also validated the evolution of the SSATP towards program approach. While recognizing the specificity of some transport issues, for example in rural and urban areas or at regional level, many of the priority issues can only be addressed effectively by working together, across components and countries.

Immediately following the stakeholders’ meeting, the Annual General Meeting of the SSATP was held, providing an opportunity for the immediate consideration of the outputs of the stakeholders’ meeting.

The 2002 SSATP meeting was judged to be a substantial success by participants and organizers alike. Particular satisfaction was expressed with the objectives, agenda and organization of the meeting and with the conference venue and facilities. Interpretation and translation should have been better. In spite of the visa and registration difficulties that some participants

ix

experienced on arrival, the atmosphere of the meeting was excellent, with highly professional debates and outputs. As the SSATP program manager observed in the closing session, the meeting was marked not only by a positive “spirit of Maputo” but also by the forging of bonds between key stakeholders in the SSA region. The meeting clearly demonstrated the latent force that exists in the region to advocate and champion transport as an essential pillar of development.

RESUMO EXECUTIVORESUMO EXECUTIVORESUMO EXECUTIVORESUMO EXECUTIVO

A Conferência Anual e a Reunião das Partes Interessadas do Programa de Política de Transportes da África Subsariana (SSATP), de 2002, afastou-se do padrão das reuniões anteriores, e constituiu um passo importante na transição para a uma “abordagem de programas”. Pela primeira vez, todas as componentes do SSATP – a Iniciativa para a Manutenção Rodoviária (RMI), o Programa de Transportes e Viagens Rurais (RTTP), o Comércio e os Transportes (T&T) que tem incorporada a Reestruturação dos Caminhos de Ferro (RR) e a Mobilidade Urbana (UB) – organizaram as suas reuniões anuais debaixo de um único telhado. A reunião congregou, por conseguinte, uma gama notável das principais partes interessadas na política de transportes em aproximadamente 34 países da África Subsariana. E, entre os mais de 180 participantes, encontravam-se Ministros e outras autoridades políticas de alto nível, os representantes superiores de 16 comunidades económicas regionais, as instituições e organizações sub-regionais, os coordenadores para os países das componentes de RMI e RTTP, os principais protagonistas do sector privado, os doadores, as organizações internacionais, e os peritos regionais e internacionais.

A conferência e a reunião das partes interessadas também teve um significado importante por terem lugar num momento oportuno. Novas questões foram surgindo nos últimos anos, as quais exigiam uma resposta clara. Algumas dessas questões são de natureza interna, do programa de SSATP (novos arranjos relativos à governação, a necessidade de examinar a direcção estratégica do programa, tendo especialmente em conta o desafio colocado pela redução da pobreza e a dependência de um número decrescente de doadores bilaterais). Outras questões estão relacionadas com os acontecimentos recentes ocorridos na região – a União Africana, a Nova Parceria para o Desenvolvimento da África (NEPAD), a resolução dos Ministros dos Transportes dos Países Africanos de que o SSATP deveria ser um instrumento principal da política de desenvolvimento – assim como os desafios existentes e contínuos, tais como o financiamento da manutenção das estradas, a segurança dos transportes, e melhores condições de acesso e mobilidade para os pobres. Era de importância vital que a gama completa das partes interessadas no sector de transportes estivesse presente para formular a resposta mais adequada para esses desafios.

A reunião foi intensa, e compreendeu uma sequência cuidadosamente estruturada de sessões plenárias, de reuniões das componentes, e uma reunião técnica das partes interessadas. Num período de quatro dias, os participantes ouviram falar sobre muitas iniciativas novas e sobre exemplos de boas práticas, empreenderam activamente debates formais e informais e sessões de trabalho, e identificaram os temas prioritários para a direcção futura que o programa de SSATP deverá seguir. Uma “praça” de exibições e materiais proporcionaram a ocasião de partilhar ideias e experiências, e mesmo a oportunidade de testar um meio de transporte intermédio.

Próximo do fim da reunião, tinha sido identificada uma série de acções prioritárias – para as componentes individuais do SSATP e para o programa na sua totalidade –a serem examinadas no Plano Empresarial imediato de 2002-2003 e no plano estratégico a longo prazo. Entre as questões prioritárias às quais deveria ser prestada atenção no SAATP, nos seus trabalhos futuros, encontram-se as seguintes:

A reunião também validou a evolução do SSATP no sentido de uma abordagem de programas. Se bem que reconhecendo a especificidade de algumas questões relativas aos transportes, por

xiii

exemplo nas zonas rurais e urbanas, ou a nível regional, muitas das questões prioritárias apenas podem ser abordadas efectivamente por meio de um trabalho conjunto que abarque todas as componentes e todos os países.

Imediatamente após a reunião das partes interessadas teve lugar a Reunião Geral Anual do SSATP, a qual proporcionou a oportunidade de examinar imediatamente os resultados da reunião das partes interessadas.

A reunião do SSATP de 2002 foi considerada um grande êxito, tanto pelos participantes como pelos organizadores, os quais declararam estar especialmente satisfeitos com os objectivos, a agenda e a organização da reunião, e com o local e as instalações da conferência. Os serviços de interpretação e de tradução deveriam ter sido melhores. Apesar das dificuldades deparadas por alguns participantes à sua chegada em relação aos vistos e às inscrições, o ambiente da reunião foi excelente, tendo os debates e os resultados sido de alto nível profissional. Como referiu o director de programa do SSATP na sessão de encerramento, a reunião caracterizou-se não só pelo “espírito positivo” de Maputo, mas também pelo estabelecimento de elos de ligação entre as principais partes interessadas na região da África Subsariana. A reunião demonstrou claramente a força latente que existe na região para promover e defender os transportes como sendo um pilar essencial do desenvolvimento.

The proceedings are organized in two volumes, Volume 1 (this one) which provides the key narrative texts recording the meetings and their outputs, together with a number of related annexes. Volume 1 is intended to have a “stand alone” character. Volume 2 will include a full record of all component meetings, and documentation and presentations on a component-by-component basis.

The intention was that this strategic framework would enable the subsequent elaboration of an SSATP action plan, including the transition to a program approach.

Less explicit, but nonetheless equally important, was the objective of sharing experience and sharing experience and sharing experience and sharing experience and knowledge about new developments and issues knowledge about new developments and issues knowledge about new developments and issues knowledge about new developments and issues concerning transport policy and initiatives - among national and regional actors, across transport sectors and between public and private players.

The 2002 meeting in Maputo occurred at a key moment in the history of the SSATP program. Over 15 years, the various components of the program — Road Management Initiative (RMI), Rural Travel and Transport Program (RTTP), Trade & Transport (T&T), Railways Restructuring (RR) and Urban Mobility (UM) — have demonstrated considerable success in supporting policy development and practical initiatives in many countries of sub-Saharan Africa. Membership of RMI and RTTP by SSA countries has grown, and demands for more active involvement in and support from all components have increased, from both national and regional actors.

By 2000 it had become clear that the delivery of support through individual components working largely separately was not an efficient — or fully appropriate — response to the needs of stakeholders, and did not reflect the increasing demand for a more integrated approach to transport policy and issues in SSA. Moreover, components had been insufficiently demand-led when developing and delivering services to users. As was clear at meetings of the RMI and RTTP in the late 1990s, stakeholders wanted to be better consulted and more involved in decision-making.

Starting with the May/June 2000 Business Meeting in Washington DC, and continuing later that year at the Copenhagen “Initial General Assembly”, program partners and stakeholders set

in motion activities which lead to the publication in February 2001 of new governance arrangements for the program, the “SSATP Framework” and the undertaking of a comprehensive strategic review. Governance was addressed by clear definition of the roles of elements of the framework, the AGM, the SSATP Board, an Advisory Group, the Program Manager, Component Managers, and the World Bank. Themes of African ownership, transparency, and accountability underpinned the proposed arrangements.

The May 2001 RMI and RTTP annual coordinating committee meetings were held back-to-back in Saly, Senegal, with one day of a combined meeting which workshopped selected issues to test their adaptability to a “program approach”. The outcomes of Saly reflected a clear demand for progress towards a program approach while maintaining component focus where appropriate, and overarching all, the paramount need for the SSATP to clearly play its part in the war against poverty in the region.

The SSATP strategic study, likewise, proposed, after a period of consolidation, that there be a transition to a program approach to be completed by 2006/2007. Consequently, the Maputo meetings were arranged with a number of specific goals in mind. In the forefront were the objectives of clarifying goals and approaches to the transition to a program approach, and, as importantly, underlying all, ensuring that the methodology employed strengthened (indeed, depended upon) African ownership of the process and outcomes.

PPPPARTICIPATIONARTICIPATIONARTICIPATIONARTICIPATION

Participation at the 2002 meeting was impressive, not only in the range of experience and seniority of participants, but also because of the countries and regional organizations

represented. More than 180 people in total participated in the four-day meeting.

34 SSA countries were represented by delegations composed of senior policy-makers and transport sector representatives, including the RMI and RTTP coordinators where these exist. Four regional economic bo-dies, nine international and sub-regional organizations, and three regional transport bodies were also

represented at the meeting. Representatives of seven donor organizations were present (including the EC). A full complement of SSATP staff from Washington and the regional offices in SSA was also present, and played the leading role in organizing the meeting.

A list of the participants is contained in Appendix 1 of this report.

AAAAGENDA AND PROCESSGENDA AND PROCESSGENDA AND PROCESSGENDA AND PROCESS

The agenda of the meeting was developed in consultation with the SSATP components and team members. RMI coordinators were also involved, represented by a Task Force of three RMI coordinators — from the host country of Mozambique, Guinea and Zambia. Some adaptations were also made during the meeting. The final agenda is contained in Appendix 2 of this report.

The four days were intensive, starting at 8.30 in the morning and continuing to 18.00 most evenings. The meeting was structured in three main parts:

- an official opening and introductory session on the Monday morning - meetings of the individual components on the Monday afternoon and all day Tuesday

(RMI and RTTP coming together for a joint session on the Tuesday afternoon) - a stakeholders’ meeting with all participants on Wednesday and Thursday morning

The agenda of the meeting was designed to allow a structured flow of ideas and information to emerge during the four days, moving step by step from issues and perspectives of the individual components to priorities and activities within an overall program approach. It aimed in particular to facilitate the emergence of common themes of concern — as well as suggestions for joint activities — between the SSATP components.

Plenary sessions of presentations and discussions alternated with working groups, providing opportunities for learning about new developments and initiatives as well as for animated debate and discussions on key issues and priorities. Facilitators assisted in structuring and steering the discussions and working sessions, which were conducted in French and English in almost all sessions.

While maintaining the logical sequence of component and plenary sessions, a number of plenary presentations were made during the four days of the meeting and workshop which were deemed to be of interest (and importance) to all participants. They can be found in Appendix 3 and include:

- Obstacles to transit traffic operations on regional corridors — Mr. N’Guessan - Transport issues and the PRSP process — Dr. George Banjo - RMI Status and vision — Mr. Steve Brushett - RTTP Status and vision — Mr. Dieter Schelling - T&T Status and vision — Mr. Marc Juhel - UM Status and vision — Mr. Patrick Bultynck - The SADC Protocol on transport — Dr. Charles Kunaka - Poverty and social dimension of transport — Mrs. Wendy Walker & Mr. Cheikh Sagna

The richness of the participation was highlighted by the initiative taken by some participants to organize their own meetings during the four days. One such meeting aimed to create an African Division of the International Association of Public Transport (IATP). Others took the opportunity to meet in sub-regional groups, or to catch up on networking between organizations.

The pleasant and practical surroundings of the TDM conference center in Maputo helped provide the right working atmosphere, and enabled participants to stretch their legs and briefly enjoy the winter sun between sessions. At the heart of the leafy conference center was the “marketplace” where tea and coffee was served and where participants could browse the displays of good practice, obtain documents and materials and talk informally about their ideas and experiences. Outside the marketplace, participants could even see and test out the “Uhuru”, an intermediate means of transport which attracted much attention.

Considerable documentation was provided to participants at the beginning of and during the meeting; copies of presentations, syntheses of outputs of working sessions and summaries of final conclusions. Great efforts were made to produce material in English and French, although this could not always be achieved in the time available.

The meeting was formally opened by the Honorable Tomáz Augusto Salomao, Minister of Transport and Communication of Mozambique. Minister Salomao was accompanied by the Honorable Roberto Costley-White, Minister for Public Works, who provided an additional address for the meeting. Dr Mohamed Ibn Chambas, Secretary-General of ECOWAS also gave a key-note opening address.

The meeting was formally closed by Madame Guissou, Director of Transport and Communi-cations, UEMOA, with a closing statement by the RMI coordinator from Tanzania, speaking on behalf of the RMI coordinators.

EEEEVALUATION BY PARTICIVALUATION BY PARTICIVALUATION BY PARTICIVALUATION BY PARTICIPANTSPANTSPANTSPANTS

A rapid evaluation was conducted at the end of the meeting. 90 participants completed evaluation forms, assessing the meeting under seven criteria and providing observations and suggestions for the organization of future meetings.

The general level of satisfaction by participants with the meeting was high:

- 92% considered the objectives to be very good or good - 88% felt the organization and timing were very good or good - 79% found the information and documentation to be very good or good - a resounding 97% appreciated the conference venue and facilities as very good or good

However, some aspects could have been much better:

- While 56% were appreciative of the travel and hotel arrangements, 31% found them to be only partly good and 13% were very dissatisfied

- 52% found the welcome arrangements on arrival to be very good or good – but nearly half had unsatisfactory experiences

- nearly 50% assessed the interpretation and translation as partly or not at all good (the quality of the interpretation and relative absence of material in French were a particular concern)

Many participants made suggestions on how to improve future meetings. The principle points made were:

��Create more opportunities for African representatives to drive the process, e.g. form a workshop steering committee to encourage greater ownership

�� Elaborating clear and focused objectives (in consultation with the relevant delegates). This should result in clear and focused outputs during the meeting

�� Distributing the agenda at least one month in advance �� Arranging in advance how documents would be distributed �� It would be more helpful if all relevant documents were distributed in a bound

form or in a file, in all the necessary languages — for ease of reference. Documents are more useful if received prior to the presentation

��Better organization of travel and accommodation arrangements including complete information on financing issues, especially what delegates are responsible for and what SSATP is responsible for

��Better welcome arrangements both at the airport and at the hotel reception (although the VIP welcome arrangement was well intentioned, it turned out to be quite cumbersome)

�� Flexibility in the travel arrangements, particularly with regard to delegates with special travel arrangements

��A request for a field trip session and at least one free afternoon to allow delegates to “see” the town and shop

6

��Need for Component Managers to report on progress against objectives in a clear manner

��Use of professional facilitators would help to make the best use of the limited time dedicated to the workshops

��Need for more ongoing dialogue/response from SSATP management during sessions instead of leaving this to the end

�� Interpreters should be more assertive and ask people to speak more slowly and clearly otherwise, a considerable amount of information is lost. Interpretation should be better coordinated

The full results of the evaluation are contained in Appendix 4.

Following the plenary opening session on the Monday morning, the meeting split into four parallel groups, each focusing on one of the main components of the SSATP program: Road Management Initiative (RMI), Rural Travel and Transport Program (RTTP), Trade & Transport (T&T) and Urban Mobility (UM). The fifth SSATP component, Railway Restructuring (RR), was considered within the T&T meeting.

These individual component meetings continued during Monday afternoon and Tuesday. RMI and RTTP came together in a joint session on the Tuesday afternoon. The outputs of the component meetings were then fed into the stakeholders’ meeting on the Wednesday and Thursday. Although the component meetings followed different formats, all four had the same objectives.

The component sessions aimed to bring participants up to date with recent activities and new developments, to clarify the components’ Business Plan for 2002-2003 and to identify priority activities for consideration within the longer-term strategic plan of the SSATP program as a whole.

The Road Management Initiative (RMI) meeting had two aims: to review the RMI Business Plan 2002-2003 and establish priorities, and to identify common themes from among these priorities to be an input into the joint meeting with RTTP.

The meeting was attended by 27 national representatives from 20 SSA countries, including existing members of RMI (15 countries), one applicant country (Rwanda) and four countries which participated for the first time in an RMI meeting (Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Mauritius and Niger). Other participants included observers from the European Union, French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, NORAD, DANIDA, World Bank, ILO/ASIST and ECOWAS.

The meeting started with the dissemination of information on recent RMI activities and outputs (the new CD-ROM Collection, the RMI section of the 2002/2003 SSATP Business Plan, a summary of the status of actions agreed at the 15th Annual Coordinating Committee in May 2001 at Saly, the new RMI brochure and copies of RMI publications since December 2001).

Following this, the country representatives met by themselves, under the chairmanship of the three RMI Coordinator representatives (Guinea, Mozambique and Zambia) who formed the Task Force to advise on the preparation of the meeting. The purpose of this part of the meeting was to assess actions taken since 2001 and to review — and if necessary suggest changes to — the current 2002-2003 Business Plan for RMI.

The key points raised by the country representatives, presented to the following open session of the RMI meeting by the Tanzanian RMI coordinator, were:

�� the general satisfaction of country representatives concerning the advances made since 2001, particularly the actions taken at the September 2001 interim meeting on the RMI Coordinators’ terms of reference, location, reporting and performance indicators.

��The main focal areas for further action should be: o specification of the role of transport in poverty reduction and impact

measurement; o advancing the cooperation with RTTP at all levels where common interest

existed, especially in road management and financing; o aiding those countries, largely in West and Central Africa, which were felt

to be at an earlier stage of progress than other members of RMI.

During the ensuing discussions, participants were generally supportive of the view that integrated transport policy development in all countries would help the implementation of RMI concepts, especially with regard to the contribution of transport to poverty reduction.

There was also endorsement for the highest priority being given to completing the pilot assessment surveys, giving particular attention to the problems of the francophone countries on which less attention has been paid to date. It was also realized that such surveys should be seen not as a “once off” but part of the regular future tasks of the coordinators. The participants also felt that attention could be given to:

�� reviewing the RMI coordinators’ terms of reference, reporting and performance indicators previously agreed to, to take into account the need for a greater emphasis on poverty reduction through transport cost reduction;

�� common arrangements with RTTP concerning country coordination where this was appropriate;

�� clarifying country membership of RMI and how best to bring regional entities into the work of the RMI;

�� further work on Road Funds, particularly knowledge dissemination and capacity building especially in resource mobilization.

On the issue of country membership of RMI, the component manager confirmed that all four countries that had formally applied to join RMI since 2001 — Burundi, Chad, Guinea and Senegal — were considered as members of the component.

Country performance assessmentsCountry performance assessmentsCountry performance assessmentsCountry performance assessments

The Tuesday morning session focused on the outcomes of the pilot performance assessments, one of the main activities during 2001-2002. Five country representatives — Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique, Guinea and Kenya — presented the experiences gathered and the lessons learned from the performance assessment exercise. The presentations generally supported the view that the exercises were:

�� valuable — in terms of the useful data generated for coordinators; �� relevant — as they can help to address the need for advocacy tools vis-à-vis

decision makers; �� feasible — in that adaptations of the instrument were progressively increasing user

friendliness and simplicity of data input.

The presenters had useful suggestions on further refinements to the instrument, which were noted for further action by the RMI component manager. It was proposed that a timetable for the roll out of the final version and a plan of action for how the work could be completed in other countries — as well as retrofitted to those who had earlier undertaken the pilots — would be finalized after the meeting.

The final session of the RMI component meeting focused on priority actions for 2002-2003 and identification of common themes for RMI-RTTP collaboration. The initial discussion centered on priority issues in SSA countries, action on which would benefit from collaboration between RMI and RTTP.

Some of the key considerations arising at country level — and which could be supported by SSATP — were noted as:

��Completion of institutional reform processes �� Finding ways to further strengthen road sector institutional capacity �� Setting up or strengthening existing Road Funds ��Undertaking a performance assessment exercise ��Promoting involvement of private enterprises in road sector work ��Elaborating national maintenance strategies and holding stakeholder workshops and

dissemination events �� Finding concrete ways to measure and enhance the poverty impact of roads

10

Reflecting on these priorities, the RMI component manager suggested that RMI activities should focus on country program support, knowledge accumulation and dissemination, and capacity building. Country program support will be provided primarily through the completion of the performance assessment surveys. Much of the knowledge dissemination activity would be focused on Road Funds which will include support to the formation of a Road Fund association and dissemination on best practice for second generation Road Funds. Attention will also be given as a priority to those countries where difficulties were being experienced in adapting Road Funds to IMF requirements. Capacity building activities will pay greater attention to francophone participants, including the development of senior road executive courses with a francophone educational institution. It was also suggested that a target should be to ensure that each coordinator had access to at least one training opportunity in poverty reduction during the 2002-2003 Business Plan period.

Preparing for the next annual meeting, the country participants indicated that the following countries — Burundi, Cape Verde and Tanzania — had been selected to serve on the Task Force, and that Burundi had offered to host the next coordinators’ meeting.

The outputs of the intensive discussions during the RMI component meeting were summarized and presented at a subsequent joint meeting of RMI and RTTP

The detailed minutes of the RMI meeting as well as copies of the presentations and outputs are contained in a separate Annex in Volume 2.

The Rural Travel and Transport Program (RTTP) meeting had two objectives: to review the RTTP Business Plan 2002-2003 and to discuss adjustments, if needed, and to identify common themes with RMI and SSATP as a whole, in view of the prospective move towards a programmatic approach.

The meeting was attended by more than 45 persons comprising Coordinators, observers from IFRTD, Irish Aid, ILO/ASIST, and the RTTP Management Team.

The meeting commenced with a presentation and discussion of the RTTP component program as scheduled for the meeting (afternoon of July 1, 2002 and morning of July 2, 2002). After agreement on the program was achieved, representatives from Francophone and Anglophone RTTP countries made summary presentations of the respective country programs. These will be found in a separate annex in Volume 2.

Generally, it was felt that, while progress is being made in respect of the various country programs, it would be difficult to achieve the objective of reaching stage 3 (implementation stage) in all member countries by the end of 2003 as is the objective of the Business Plan. This was linked to the lack of resources forthcoming for rural transport programs in many countries

11

and the resulting lack of motivation of decision makers to adopt rural transport policies and strategies. On the other hand, it was explained that countries without a conducive rural transport policy and strategy are unlikely to attract funding for rural transport. To get out of this vicious circle, it was felt necessary, that SSATP assists countries with resource mobilization, and that this would be easier in the framework of the planned programmatic approach.

In the following session the RTTP Business Plan for 2002 and 2003 was presented (see RTTP Annex in Volume 2) and discussed with the participants. Generally it was felt that the Business Plan was still adequate and that only minor adjustments were needed in view of the experience made so far and in view of the move towards a programmatic approach. Particular emphasis is required in respect of a better information exchange between RTTP Coordinators and RTTP Management, amongst RTTP Coordinators and across language barriers. It was agreed that rapid efforts must be made to ensure Internet access by all coordinators. Further, it was agreed that an exchange of good practice is required and that this will be done via “country and thematic buttons” on the RTTP web page. These should be filled with good practice examples, as soon as possible, and in any case before the end of 2002. Concise summaries would be prepared of good practice reports. Translation from French to English and vice versa would be undertaken by the Regional Offices in Abidjan and Harare with quality assurance being provided by the Washington Dc office. Also, it was discussed that the role of and support to countries that have already achieved state 3 (Ethiopia, Malawi, Madagascar) needs to be better defined and that it should be clarified how non-member countries can become RTTP countries.

Discussion of Thematic Issues Discussion of Thematic Issues Discussion of Thematic Issues Discussion of Thematic Issues

On Tuesday July 2, 2002, during the first session four core rural transport themes were discussed. Each theme was introduced by a brief presentation by one of the participants (see Component Annex). Following were the four themes discussed:

1. Promotion of Intermediate Means of Transport and Rural Transport Services 2. Appropriate Institutional Set-ups for Rural Transport 3. Provision of Basic Access; and 4. Gender & Rural Transport The ensuing discussions amongst the participants were very lively and it became clear that better dissemination of existing information and exchange of best practice is paramount to achieving better results on the ground.

In the following session cross-cutting issues between RTTP and RMI and beyond related to the entire SSATP were discussed in view of the afternoon joint RMI-RTTP session. Network based road management and financing was identified as the clear core joint RMI-RTTP issue. It was agreed that sustainable solutions for the management and financing of rural transport networks could only be achieved in a joint RMI/RTTP framework. Other cross-cutting issues for RMI/RTTP and beyond were identified and discussed, such as road safety, gender, poverty alleviation, project implementation, etc.

On the Tuesday afternoon the RMI and RTTP participants — around 70 in all — came together in a joint session to identify together common priority issues to be taken forward to the stakeholders’ meeting. Report-backs from the separate RMI and RTTP meetings were made, followed by a synthesis of the seven priority themespriority themespriority themespriority themes common to the two components. The priority areas were identified as:

��The contribution of transport to poverty reduction ��The development of integrated national transport policies ��Roads maintenance funds and revenue sources ��Promotion of SMEs, taking into account gender and labor-based approaches ��Capacity-building, particularly in management ��Regional cooperation ��Performance assessments and monitoring of impact

The participants were then invited to break into five regional working groups: two French-speaking, two English-speaking and one Portugue-se-speaking. Each group had the task of identifying what activities should be carried out in a coor-dinated way between RMI and RTTP (either relating to the common priority areas or concer-ning other issues of importance) and suggesting how the program should be organized to facilitate a more coordinated approach. The five

groups reported back in plenary at the end of the afternoon, their reports indicating significant consensus around the priority activities as well as some organizational changes for collaborative working between RMI and RTTP.

The joint RMI-RTTP priority activitiespriority activitiespriority activitiespriority activities identified by the working groups included:

��Management and financing of roads: o Exchange information and experiences on financing mechanisms o Support awareness-raising and capacity-building, particularly at management

level o Institutional arrangements

�� Formulation of integrated transport policies: o Emphasize the links between transport and poverty reduction o Take gender issues more thoroughly into account o Address safety, security and the environment o Support mobilization of resources o Address transport services

��Optimize the participation of the private sector and local communities: o Promote small-scale enterprises: traders, craftspeople, contractors and

consultants o Promote employment and labor-based approaches o Involve NGOs, local authorities and communities

A consensus also emerged among the working groups concerning the organizational set-up at country level for coordinating between RMI and RTTP:

If other SSATP components are represented in the country, then these would also be coordinated by the SSATP coordinator or national committee. Methods of coordination between the component coordinators would vary from country to country, depending in part on the institutional responsibilities for transport policy.

One of the working groups also suggested an organizational set-up at regional level, with one SSATP regional coordinator linked to the SSATP country coordinators within his or her region. This proposal received strong support from the participants.

The key conclusions of the joint RMI-RTTP meeting were summed up in the presentation of the meeting outputs to the opening plenary session of the stakeholders’ meeting the following morning:

- there is a strong demand for a more global, coherent approach to national transport policy

- the reduction of poverty is a key driver - the collaboration between RMI and RTTP must continue, focusing on the priority

activities - the short-fall in financing of roads maintenance is a major priority, requiring urgent

and joint action - the implementation of the Business Plan for 2002-2003 should reflect the new spirit of

collaboration between RMI and RTTP In terms of concrete actions to be undertaken to strengthen RMI-RTTP collaboration, four areas were identified:

1. Create a joint RMI-RTTP Task Force, including three coordinators from each component and the component managers

2. Organize a mid-term meeting of RMI and RTTP coordinators during the 2002-2003 Business Plan period to decide on future steps and themes

3. Determine the resource needs for common activities and organizational arrangements 4. Establish a network for the dissemination and exchange of information to link RMI and

RTTP ongoing initiatives

TTTTRADE RADE RADE RADE & T& T& T& TRANSPORTRANSPORTRANSPORTRANSPORT

The Trade and Transport (T&T) Component meeting — which gathered together 42 participants — was the first opportunity for the component’s stakeholders to meet together since the T&T component was redesigned following the 2000 SSATP Business Meetings. As a result of the broadening of scope of T&T from its main focus on ports and maritime transport (as it used to be until 1998) to a transport chain approach, it was also the first time since the inception of the SSATP that T&T brought together such a large variety of transport sector partners, ranging from private transport operators to sub-regional economic organizations, including national transport ministries, corridor authorities, professional associations and donor representatives.

As well as bringing participants up-to-date with current initiatives, the T&T meeting had the objective of seeking confirmation from the regional stakeholders on the relevance and adequacy of the proposed T&T work program for 2002-2003 in relation to their perceived needs, and to amend the work program accordingly.

The meeting generated considerable interest from participants, not only in the content of the discussions but also in the possibilities of greater involvement in the T&T component. In order to carry forward the momentum created by this first T&T meeting, the participants proposed to turn the gathering into a T&T Steering Group, enabling everyone to keep in touch with the

15

T&T community as the work program gets underway and as lessons are drawn from the initiatives undertaken.

The first half of the meeting was devoted to several presentations from SSATP management and participants, including:

(i) a reminder of the initial component work plan proposal as defined in the Business Plan

(ii) the review of several initiatives already underway or under consideration for support from T&T in Western, Eastern and Southern Africa: a. the UEMOA Project of Observatory of Practices along Regional Corridors; b. the TTCA Northern Corridor development agenda; c. the PMAESA/TTCA Cargo Tracking System Project; and d. the USAID-RAPID Project on the Trans-Kalahari and Dar-es-Salaam Corridors; e. the preparation of a data-base of all administrative and regulatory instruments

governing transport and inter-state corridors. (iii) the presentation of two initiatives concerning transport and trade facilitation

outside the region, in which the World Bank is involved, to provide a broader perspective on how the Bank addresses this agenda worldwide: a. the Global Facilitation Partnership for Transportation and Trade (GFP), and the

associated GFP-Distance Learning Initiative; and b. the collaborative research work with the Asia Pacific Economic Council

(APEC) on the economic benefits of trade and transport facilitation.

The second half of the meeting took the form of a participative brainstorming session, which aimed to define the T&T work program for 2002-2003. A consensus quickly emerged on the benefit of rooting the overall T&T agenda within the regional corridor concept, thus providing a unifying factor around which to organize the different elements of the program.

As a result of a lively exchange of views and a host of suggestions from almost all participants, the following outputs were proposed to form the updated T&T work program for 2002-2003:

��Establishment of Corridors Observatories and Expansion of Pilots �� Legal Regional Reform

o Harmonization of regional instruments o National adaptation

�� Support to Corridor Groups o Review of existing corridor systems o Determination of road maps and model arrangements for corridor management o Organization of Corridor Workshops to help jumpstart the establishment of

new Corridor Groups o Design and implementation of corridor cargo tracking systems

�� Support to Small Cross-Border Traders o Research of a special status

16

o Assistance to creation/strengthening of local small traders associations ��Railway Concessioning Toolkit Translation and Dissemination ��Training

o Inventory of training needs and opportunities per corridor o Preparation of Corridor Guides for different categories of stakeholders,

summarizing existing regulations, tariff/fees, and working practices. The full texts of all presentations made at the T&T meeting are provided in the separate Component Annex.

The Urban Mobility Component’s (UMC) twelfth Steering Committee Meeting had three aims: (a) to discuss the UM Business Plan 2002-2003 through different presentations on the main topics covered by the Business Plan; (b) to identify complementary needs and issues to be included in the Business Plan and (c) to identify common themes which might be considered within a SSATP programmatic approach.

The meeting was attended by 46 delegates from 12 African countries. Other participants included observers from the European Union, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the International Union of Public Transport (U.I.T.P.).

UM Business Plan 2002UM Business Plan 2002UM Business Plan 2002UM Business Plan 2002----2003200320032003

Papers on the five key elements of the BP were presented and debated. They are:

�� Institutional reform, with two Urban Transport Authorities in place in Dakar (CETUD) and Abidjan (AGETU) and one under preparation in Lagos (LAMATA). The importance of establishing such an institutional coordination gathering the main actors of the sector was highlighted as key for any improvement in urban mobility.

��Role of the Municipalities in the urban mobility policy: lack of human and financial resources was stressed as a major issue of the decentralization process under way in sub-Saharan Africa;

��Urban Air Pollution which is now under the umbrella of the Clean Air Initiative in sub-Saharan Africa. The session was chaired by Mr. Gnacadja, Minister of Environment, Housing, Urban Affairs and Urban Mobility of Benin. The main item on the agenda was the sub-regional Action Plans to phase-out leaded gasoline in the aftermath of the regional conference of Dakar in June 2001 where the decision to eliminate lead from gasoline by 2005 was officially taken (the so-called Dakar Declaration);

��Microenterprises with cases from Bamako, Abidjan, Accra, Nairobi, Harare, Dakar, Douala and Yaoundé. Based on the comprehensive information on the operation and financing of the microenterprises, a toolkit should be prepared in the near future on a

17

regulatory framework suitable for this king of services. The experience under way in Dakar where all the small operators are now gathered into one single federation was considered by the participants as a positive step towards a more efficient system of transport services.

��Non Motorized Transport and road safety (see hereafter). The Meeting provided also the opportunity for the presentation and debates on two recent activities carried out by the component:

�� Scoping study on the cities of Addis Ababa, Dar es Salaam and Nairobi. History and current status of public transport is almost the same: all the three cities were waning only big buses but currently the market is dominated by small/medium minibuses. For each city, the study presented, as main recommendation, a draft Action Plan. The success of such a Plan requires a strong political support, independent funding and a “champion” to run the Transport Authority;

��Assessment of the Non Motorized Transport (NMT) Program carried out in Kenya and Tanzania between 1995 and 1999. Guidelines for NMT have been issued as major output of the Program. They will be translated and disseminated in the near future.

Both studies (scoping and NMT assessment) are expected to be finalized by September 2002. The recommendations of the scoping study would provide the background for national seminars during which draft Action Plan on policy reform will be prepared. Based on those presentations and the debates, the BP 2002-2003 was endorsed by the delegates with some complementary requests.

Complementary suggestions on the UM Business Plan 2002Complementary suggestions on the UM Business Plan 2002Complementary suggestions on the UM Business Plan 2002Complementary suggestions on the UM Business Plan 2002----2003200320032003

The participants expressed the wish to add the following topics on the Business Plan:

�� Land use integrating urban mobility with two case studies to be carried out; �� Freight transport in urban centers

As far as the management of the component is concerned, there was a strong desire to move to (a) a more decentralized organization and (b) a reinforcement of the human resource allocated to the component’s management. Such a move would be implemented by:

�� Setting up two sub-regional units with UM experts to coordinate the implementation of the BP with countries of the sub-region;

�� Identifying in each active country a “focal point” to coordinate actions at national level and disseminate information;

�� Improving the flow of communications at the sub-regional level

Participants also unanimously highlighted the importance of training sessions as the one organized in Addis Ababa in May 2002 and Abidjan in July 2000. There was an agreement to

18

include operators in a future training session, in addition to experts from ministries and municipalities.

Identification of common themes to be tackled within a programmatic approachIdentification of common themes to be tackled within a programmatic approachIdentification of common themes to be tackled within a programmatic approachIdentification of common themes to be tackled within a programmatic approach

During the discussions on the progressive programmatic approach, a consensus was reached on the importance to keep the “urban” features and issues within the approach, while developing a platform of cooperation with other components on topics such as:

• Road safety • Poverty and Transport • Transport policy formulation at national level • HIV/AIDS prevention and awareness • Financing and maintenance of urban roads • Private sector development (SME, microenterprises)

In the aftermath of the Steering Committee, a special session was organized in partnership with the International Union of Public Transport (U.I.T.P.) on the relaunching of the African Union of Public Transport (UATP). Thirty-five delegates attended this special session. As a reminder, the UATP was formally launched in the early 90’s as part of the Urban Transport Component’s activities. The members of the UATP came from the public transport companies. With the failure of most of these formal companies, UATP nearly disappeared. The updated structure of the UATP would embrace operators, regulators, consultants, municipalities and would be more in line with the changes in the provision of urban transport in sub-Saharan Africa. Exchange of views among participants demonstrated the complementarities between the UATP’ Project and the SSATP-UM in terms of knowledge sharing, capacity building and dissemination. Based on such synergy, a join workprogram could be elaborated in the future between both structures.

The component meetings were followed by a “stakeholders’ meeting” which brought together all participants. Starting on Wednesday morning and ending at lunchtime on Thursday, this meeting aimed to map out the strategic direction of the SSATP program as a whole. As the stakeholders’ meeting was immediately followed by the 2002 Annual General Meeting of SSATP, it was a timely moment for stakeholders to give their views on the future strategic direction of the program and to influence decision-making by the members of SSATP.

The stakeholders’ meeting began with a plenary session during which the component meeting outputs (jointly for RMI and RTTP, separately for T&T and UM) were presented and discussed.

19

Following this a presentation by a senior representative of the Southern African Transport and Communication Committee (SATCC) was made.

At this point the facilitator took over, to explain the objectives and method of the remaining part of the stakeholders’ meeting. In order to maximize the participation of delegates in the time available, it was proposed to split into nine working groups (four bilingual, five monolingual either French or English) covering eight themes. These themes had been identified by the SSATP team from the outputs of the component meetings, and in particular from the priority areas for joint action by the components. The eight themes were:

1. Development of integrated transport sector policies – discussed by two groups, one French, one English

2. Sustained, adequate financing of roads maintenance – one bilingual group 3. Involvement of the private sector in the financing and management of transport

infrastructure and services - one bilingual group 4. Development of small-scale enterprises in the transport sector, including traders,

contractors and consultants, both women and men - one bilingual group 5. Demonstrate to policy-makers and stakeholders the impact of transport on poverty

reduction, including the cross-cutting issues of gender and HIV/AIDS – English group 6. Improved transport safety and security – French group 7. Improved regional cooperation on transport issues and a greater involvement of

regional entities in the SSATP program — one bilingual group 8. Improved SSATP organizational structure and governance arrangements, taking into

account global, regional and national levels — English group With the exception of group 8, each working group had more or less the same task:

- to identify and exchange information on examples of good practice relevant to the theme being addressed;

- to discuss the support that the SSATP program could provide at national and regional levels to promote policy development and improved practice on the theme;

- to propose three priority actions that should be considered in the SSATP action plan. The tasks for group 8 were to identify and assess the options for an organizational structure and governance arrangements better adapted to coordinated working across components and to addressing the priority themes and cross-cutting issues, and to make recommendations for changes to the existing structure and governance arrangements at global, regional and national levels.

Participants chose their working group by taking pre-prepared “tickets” – containing information on the topic, tasks, venue and timing of the group – as they left the meeting room at the end of the plenary session. Following lunch, the working groups appointed their own chairperson and rapporteur, and set to work. The exchanges on examples and lessons of good

20

practice and the discussions on priority actions that could be taken by SSATP were lively and constructive.

At the end of the afternoon, participants rejoined the main meeting hall to present their main findings to the other participants. The highly professional presentations were an appropriate ending to an intensive day’s work. The findings of the nine working groups as they were presented in plenary are reproduced in Appendix 5.

The following morning participants had a further chance to discuss in plenary session the themes of the working groups — additional examples of good practice were mentioned as well as other issues of concern to stakeholders. Points raised during the discussions included suggestions for additional sources of maintenance resources, the need to tackle corruption, the priority that should be placed on safety and security, the importance of rural travel and transport (roads, water and railways) and of corridor roads.

Following a long coffee break which allowed the SSATP team to prepare the final presentation in French and English, the SSATP program mana-ger summed up the main findings of the meeting.

Firstly, he summarized the main issues for priority action by the SSATP components (these are men-tioned in Chapter 2).

Then a series of priority actions for priority actions for priority actions for priority actions for joint action by SSATPjoint action by SSATPjoint action by SSATPjoint action by SSATP components,

22

Summing up the overall conclusions of the meeting, the SSATP program manager noted the clear consensus that had emerged during the four days on the key themes that will shape the SSATP program approach at country and regional levels. He indicated the broad endorsement of the Business Plan, with clarification of particular component outputs and activities, as well as the general desire for a more coherent, program approach to enable the SSATP program to deliver ever more effective support to stakeholders in the region. A particular priority for the program is to facilitate vertical and lateral links between countries and regional economic communities through knowledge sharing and networking, so as to improve the championship of transport as a vital element of strategies to reduce poverty and promote economic development.

The meeting ended as it had started, on a very positive note. The closing statement to the meeting by the RMI coordinator from Tanzania, speaking on behalf of the RMI coordinators, summed it up. “The meeting has been successful in several ways. Firstly the venue, away from the city and our hotels and which provided an enabling environment for total commitment and active participation by all of us. Secondly the programming and facilitation of component sessions have been well organized and effectively managed to achieve the intended objectives. Thirdly the eight joint workshops provided the required input, ownership and direction on the way forward for SSATP”.

The Chairwoman of the final plenary session, Mme. H. Guisssou, Director of Transport for UEMOA, formally closed the event with a short speech echoing the very positive sentiments of participants, and noting with satisfaction the collaboration between UEMOA and the SSATP.

�� It would be important to inform delegates about all local arrangements (such as accommodation, meals, travel arrangements, venues for various activities and per diems) as soon as they arrive.

�� List of delegates including contact details should be circulated in advance to support networking.

�� Per diems should be paid on arrival to enable delegates with no money to meet their incidental needs and to avoid unnecessary expenses.

�� Need to clearly state details of expenses to be borne by participants and those for which SSATP is responsible.

�� World Bank back up staff should be more cautious. �� Difficulties with the per diem (delegation felt badly treated). �� No blackmail to get one’s per diem �� Welcome arrangements were well intentioned but both airport VIP and Hotel

�� Nobody at the airport.

�� Allow time for a field trip to see some of the case studies and works being undertaken by the host country.

�� Not enough e time to visit the town, meeting people from the country. �� Next time, allow for one free afternoon for shopping and seeing the city. �� Sessions were overcrowded and participants had no time to interact. �� Allow time for participants to discuss internally what has taken place during the

day in preparation for the next day.

Organization of SessionsOrganization of SessionsOrganization of SessionsOrganization of Sessions

�� Working groups were very good but need more time. �� Use of professional facilitators would help to make the best use of the limited time

dedicated to the workshops. �� Sessions should start at the stated times, regardless of number of participants

present. �� No more than four hours of work per day and only in the morning. �� Sessions should be organized in such a way that we have only 8 working hours a

day, they should end at 16hours. �� All sessions should have clear objectives and outcomes should be based on the

objectives.

63

�� Videotape some of the sessions for follow-up purposes with other stakeholders in the country.

�� Workshops or discussion groups involving two or more languages should take place in rooms with microphones.

�� Mixing of French and English should speaking participants should be minimized to allow for proper discussions.

�� Need for more ongoing dialogue/response from SSATP management during sessions instead of leaving this to the end.

�� Issues raised during plenary discussions should not suddenly ‘disappear’ without agreement from participants. Allow enough time to finalize the conclusions for review by stakeholders.

�� It would be useful for documents to be presented in advance to allow for their distribution soon after the presentations.

�� It would be more helpful if all relevant documents were distributed in a bound form or in a file — for ease of reference. Documents are more useful if received prior to the presentation.

�� There should be paper copies of all presentations for distribution to participants. �� All documents should be in French and English. �� Need for laptops and printers for use by delegates — a documentation center with

fax and phone facilities. �� Give a paper to recapitulate all the expenses and prepare the subsequent envelope:

it will take into account the personality of every participant. �� Need to get the documents resulting from this meeting and the translation in both

French and English.

�� There was good spirit and participation — keep up the work of SSATP. �� This meeting was much better than the Saly meeting — it is the best SSATP/TMI

ACM too. �� It is necessary to continue with the SSATP meetings as a way of sharing

experiences throughout SSA countries. �� Facilitation was better than in Saly — good for achieving objectives. �� There is need to present donor policies on transport sector policies/support. �� Create more opportunities for African representatives to drive the process, e.g.

form a workshop steering committee to encourage greater ownership. �� How can discussions during breaks and in the bars be captured and reflected in the

workshop outputs? �� Need for better organization and co-ordination with the host country. �� Better involvement of local and national governments in the organization of the

event. �� All instructions should be written down. �� Nothing new has been gained from RMI/RTTP. These have been diluted and seem

to be directionless. �� The host country did not present what he was doing within the SSATP, that is a

pity. �� The secretariat appeared to be overwhelmed with work – participants lost valuable

time confirming plane bookings on their own. �� The Mozambican hostesses were excellent, helpful and patient. �� Difficulties with the visas (2 days without any passport). �� Better understanding from resident missions of the World Bank. �� Congratulations for this meeting!

Excelências,

Minhas Senhores e meus Senhores, Em menos de um mês, a nossa região foi abalada por dois acidente ferroviários de proporções trágicas e efeitos dramáticos.

Quero aproveitar esta ocasião para uma vez mais em nome do Governo de Moçambique agradecer as mensagens de conforto solidariedade e encorajamento dirigidas aos moçambicanos bern como as famílias enlutadas em particular na sequência do acidente ferroviário ocorrido na Estação de Tenga a pouco menos de 40 kms de Maputo, no sistema ferroviário que liga o nosso País a vizinha Africa de Sul acidente que causou 197 mortos e 169 feridos.

A Cornissão de Inquérito designada pelo Governo para investigar as causas do acidente deverá ao longo da primeira quinzena deste mês fazer a entrega do seu relatório.

Não refeitos desta tragédia a cerca de uma semana na vizinha República Unida da Tanzania novo acidente ferroviário bate-nos a porta desta vez ceifando a vida a cerca de 300 pessoas e ferindo cerca de 800 pessoas. Nova tragédia.

Ao Govemo da República Unida da Tanzania ao povo irmão da Tanzania e as famílias enlutadas em particular endereçamos uma vez mais as nossa mais sentidas condolências ao mesmo tempo que desejamos rápidas melhoras aos feridos. Sabernos bem o drama que estão vivendo, mas há que encontrar forças para ir repondo a normalidade no sistema.

Em memória das vítimas, deste acidente peço-vos que observemos um minuto de silêncio.

Como região, ao nivel da SADC concluímos que se impunha revisitar os mecanismos de segurança nos sistemas de transporte em geral e nos ferroviários em particular corn efeitos imediatos.

Excelências, Minhas Senhores e meus Senhores,

Acredito que a razão de nos juntarmos neste encontro é a troca de pontos de vista, sobre os caminhos a seguir quanto ao desenvolvimento da infraestrutura de transporte em termos de cobertura, qualidade e segurança bem como a eficiéncia dos diferentes operadores com o propósito de lograrmos uma major eficácia dos nossos sistemas.

Estou ainda convencido que ao nível da Africa Subsahariana a insfraestrutura de transportes é um instumento importante para fazer face aos desafios que se nos colocam em cada urn dos nossos países nomeadamente:

��A Construção de uma capacidade doméstica para fazer face aos desafios do futuro; ��A boa Governação �� alívio da pobreza ��A remoção das barreiras para facilitar o livre movimento de pessoas e bens ��A manutenção de políticas macroeconómicas credíveis.

Para ser mais preciso, por exemplo ao nivel da SADC a infraestrutura de transporte assenta em:

�� 88.000 km de estradas dos quais 48.000 fazem parte do Network regional de estradas da SADC

�� kms de vias ferroviárias regionais excluíndo os 1.600 krn do Corredor de Nacala que liga o Porto de Nacala em Moçambique ao vizinho Malawi

�� 15 Portos servindo as necessidades regionais de importação e exportação ��Mais de um aeroporto por estado membro servindo as ligações Internacionais ��De Este a Qeste serca de 1.100 km de águas interiores navegáveis ao longo do rio

Zambeze que atravessam ricas áreas em termos agrícolas florestais e minerais mas ainda não exploradas.

Apoiando esta infraestrutura regional descrita de forma sumária existe em cada País um Network de estradas, linhas férreas, portos e aeroportos servindo as necessidade domésticas.

Se as condições gerais da infraestrutura podem ser classificadas de fraco para o bom, corn pequenos troços em excelentes condições, há todavia zonas onde a infraestrutura está em muito más condições - very poor condition - tanto por razões de concepção há muitos anos, ou por fraca manutenção.

Por outro lado ainda há traços por serem construídos - rodoviarios e ferroviários -, forçando os transportadores a seguirem longas rotas alternativas para chegarem aos seu destinos. Adicionalmente os procedimentos ao nivel das fronteiras são demorados fazendo corn que os operadores levern muito mais ternpo nas suas viagens.

67

Estima-se que cerca de 30 a 35% do valor dos produtos na região da SADC e quiçá na Africasubsahariana é devido ao custo do transporte.

Em conclusão a região tern de reduzir a sua alta componente do custo de transporte para níveis razoáveis e aceitáveis, se pretendernos que os nossos produtos sejam competetivos quer a nível interno quer a nível do Cornércio Internacional.

Precisarnos póis de prosseguir os nossos programas de reformas domésticas e aprofundar a integração regional.

Felizmente a Paz e a Estabilidade vão abraçando um maior número de países na nossa região Subsahariana.

Por ironia, ninguém pode hoje ignorar o facto de que o mundo é hoje uma arena global e nós não podernos escapar dos efeitos da globalização. Então já não é suficiente que os nossos sistemas e infraestruturas de transporte tenham um bern performance. O performance tem de ser medido em função dos standards mundiais, se como região ou suregião querernos ser competitivos e ocupar algurn espaço. Este é o desaflo que temos pela frente.

Excellencies,

Ladies and gentlemen,

In the space of less than one month, our region has been hit by two railway accidents of tragic proportions, the effects of which have been deeply felt.

On behalf of the Government of Mozambique, I would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks once again for the messages of comfort, solidarity, and encouragement sent to our people and especially to the bereaved families impacted by the accident that took place at the Tenga station, located slightly less than 40 kilometers from Maputo, on the line linking Mozambique to neighboring South Africa, and which left 197 persons dead and 169 injured.

The Commission of Inquiry appointed by the Government to investigate the causes of the accident is to submit its report during the first half of this month.

While we were still coming to terms with this tragedy, around a week later, in the United Republic of Tanzania, another railway accident took the lives of about 300 persons and left some 800 injured. Another tragedy.

68

To the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania and to the Tanzanian people, and in particular to the families now mourning the loss of loved ones, we extend once again our most heartfelt condolences and at the same time our best wishes for a speedy recovery to the injured. We are well aware of the anguish they are experiencing, but now the energy must be summoned up to restore the system to normalcy.

In memory of the victims of this accident, I would ask that we observe a minute of silence.

As a region, at the level of SADC, we have concluded that it is imperative that we review the safety mechanisms of our transport systems in general and of our railways in particular without delay.

Excellencies,

Ladies and gentlemen,

It is my understanding that the reason for our gathering together here is to exchange views on how best to develop our countries’ transportation infrastructure in terms of coverage, quality, and safety, together with the efficiency of the different operators, with the overarching aim of improving the efficacy of our systems.

I remain convinced that for Sub-Saharan Africa, the transportation infrastructure is an important instrument for meeting the challenges that we face in each of our countries, specifically:

�� The building of domestic capacity to meet the challenges of the future �� Good governance �� Poverty alleviation �� The removal of barriers in order to facilitate the free movement of persons and

goods �� The maintaining of credible macroeconomic policies

To be more precise, for example at the SADC level the transportation infrastructure is based on:

�� 88,000 km of roads, 48,000 km of which form part of the SADC regional highway network;

�� 40,000 km of regional railways excluding the 1,600 km of the Nacala Corridor linking Mozambique’s port of Nacala with neighboring Malawi

�� 15 ports serving the region’s import and export needs �� More than one airport per member State serving international flights �� From east to west, about 1,100 km of navigable inland waterways along the

Zambezi River that run through areas that are rich in agricultural land, forests, and mineral resources but which are still undeveloped

69

Supporting this briefly outlined regional infrastructure there is, in each country, a network of roads, railways, ports, and airports serving their domestic needs.

While the general condition of the infrastructure can be rated from poor to good, with some short stretches in excellent shape, there are still areas where the infrastructure is in very poor condition, either because it was designed many years ago and no longer meets today’s requirements, or else due to inadequate maintenance.

On the other hand, some stretches of both highways and railways still remain to be built, a situation which obliges carriers to traverse long alternative routes to arrive at their destinations. In addition, the procedures at border crossings are drawn-out, which adds greatly to the cost in terms of time for operators.

It is estimated that about 30-35% of the cost of products in the SADC region and possibly in Sub-Saharan Africa as a whole can be ascribed to the cost of transportation.

In conclusion, the region needs to bring its high transportation cost component down to reasonable and acceptable levels, if we want our products to be competitive, whether domestically or in international trade.

We must therefore move ahead with our domestic reform programs and intensify regional integration.

Fortunately, a larger number of our Sub-Saharan African countries are now enjoying peace and stability.

Ironically, no one can today ignore the fact that the world has become a global arena and we are unable to escape the effects of globalization. That means that it is now not enough for our transportation systems and infrastructures simply to perform well. Their performance must be measured in terms of world standards if as a region or subregion we want to be competitive and be significant player. This is the challenge that lies ahead.

Sua excelencia,

Senhores coordenadores da iniciativa de gestão rodoviaria,

Senhores coordenadores do programa de transportes e mobilidade rurais,

Distintos convidados, Minhas senhoras e meus senhores:*-

Moçambique é um país extenso com mais de dois mil quilómetros de comprimeto, ocupando uma superfície de mais de 800,000 quilometros quadrados e com uma população de cerca de 17 milhões de habitantes. A major parte dessa população vive nas zonas rurais e de forma dispersa.

Moçambique também é um país banhado pelo mar com boas potencialidades para a atracagem de navios internacionais ou de cabotagem.

A guerra, a seca e a fome, à semelhança do que ocorreu ou mesmo, ainda ocorre, em muitos países africanos, forçaram ao êxodo rural, ficando muita da população concentrada em pequenas áreas urbanas, algumas das quais de ocupação desordenada.

A necessidade de garantir um adequado sistema de transportes para as zonas rurais, um eficiente sistema de transportes para servir os países do interland e de dotar as cidades de uma mobilidade fácil, conduziu a que o governo de moçambique, aprovasse e adoptasse políticas visando promover acções concretas na área dos transportes, parte dos quais coincidem com o Programa de Políticas dos Transportes para a África Sub-Sahariana, coordenados conjuntamente pelo banco mundial e pela comissão económica para a África.

Distintos convidados, minhas senhoras e meus senhores

A vossa presença em Maputo vai permitir, não só que sejam delineadas estratégias e agendas de acção para o programa de Políticas dos Transportes da África Sub-sahariana, como ira tambem, sem duvida, impulsionar a consolidação de estratégias e de acções destinadas a tornar mais eficiente o sistema de transportes de Moçambique.

Sendo o objecto do vosso trabalho a melhoria dos transportes como factor condicionante e promotor do desenvolvimento económico e do bem estar social da África Sub-Sahariana, quero em nome do governo da Republica de Moçambique, e em meu nome pessoal,desejar as boas vindas a todos os participantes a este workshop anual do programa de políticas dos transportes da África Sub-Sahariana.

71

Caros participantes, minhas senhoras e meus senhores,

As mobilidades urbana, rural ou internacional, são um factor importante e impulsionador do desen volvimento de um país e de uma região. Contudo, estes não resolvem por si sós, o problema da pobreza absoluta com que a major parte das populações dos países da África Sub-Sahariana se vê a braços. O alívio da pobreza resolve-se com programas multisectorias concretos e integrados de desenvolvimento nos quaís um adequado sistema de transportes é uma das componentes principals.

Desde a proclamação da independência nacional, Moçambique viveu diferentes etapas de desenvolvimento. A guerra de desestabilização de que o país foi vítima foi o período em que se viveu o maior retrocesso no sistema de transportes, com as infra-estruturas rodoviárias seleccionadas como um dos alvos de ataque e grandemente destruídas ou abandonadas por insegurança. O período qie se seguiu à assinatura do acordo geral de paz em outubro de 1992, foi, por um lado, o despontar da paz e reconciliação entre os moçambicanos e, por outro lado, de um salto qualitativo que se inicia na gestão operacionalidade do sistema de transportes.

No sector rodoviário foram traçados programas, com investimentos nacionais e estrangeiros de mais de mil milhões de dólares americanos que, para além de reduzira intransitabilidade das estradas, foramintroduzidas reformas na gestão rodoviária. Foi criada uma autoridade autónoma de estradas onde a inclusão dos utilizadores na gestão de estradas e a separação da gestão do financiamento é uma das inovações.

O transporte e a mobilidade rurais - um programa recentemente concebido e em estabelecimento em moçambique, é também uma iniciativa nos esforços em curso para, de forma integrada, se resolver o problema dos transportes e de desenvolvimento nas zonas rurais.

O NEPAD é uma iniciativa africana de grande alcance para o programa de transportes para a África Sub-sahariana, nosso objecto de atenção. É dever de todo o africano contribuir com o seu saber para que o NEPA, como projecto para o desenvolvimento auto sustentado de África, resulte bem sucedido. No NEPAD as infraestruturas e a formação do capital humano estão no topo da lista de acções a realizar para o seu sucesso.

Nos nossos paises, os sistemas de transportes constituem um factor decisivo, se quisermos que o potencial agrícola e industrial de África possa eliminar a imagem de fome com que o mundo nos associa e os nossos países possam entrar a competir no mercado mundial.

Observo com bastante preocupação e apreensão, o facto de o HIV/SIDA estar a alastrar e a tomar contornos desoladores no nosso continente. Sendo os nossos povos vítimas desta pandemia, ela atinge sobretudo os nossos jovens, em quem devemos investir tudo o que podermos, preparando a passagem do testemunho a seu favor. A nossa juventude, os nossos trabalhadores, tem sido os grupos mais atingidos. Vejo que muitos de vocês sao esses jovens, e

72

por isso encorajo-vos a darem um contributo pessoal e personalizado nas campanhas de prevenção e de redução do HIV/SIDA.

Distintos convidados, minhas senhoras e meus senhores.

Gostaria, a terminar, de agradecer o contributo que os parceiros de cooperação tem dado aos diferentes programas de transportes em Moçambique.

Agradeço também a todas as instituições e pessoas singulares que tornaram possível a realização deste workshop.

A participação de todos, particularmente dos coordenadores dos diferentes países, nos debates agendados irá contribuir para a definição de estratégias e acções comuns para os transportes. Estamos ansiosos por conhecer os vossos contributos e recomendações. No combate ã pobreza em que estamos empenhados, o vosso saber e experiência é algo de que não podemos prescindir.

Pesem embora as dificuldades por que tem passado, Moçambique é um belo país. Não percam a oportunidade de, durante os tempos livres, procurar conhecer melhor a sua cidade capital. No vosso caminhar irão sentir, sem duvida, o pulsar do nosso povo e a razão da nossa determinação de querermos construir um país mais próspero e desenvolvido.

Muito obrigado pela vossa atenção.

Your Excellency,

Coordinators of the Road Management Initiative,

Coordinators of the Rural Travel and Transport Program,

Distinguished guests,

Ladies and gentlemen,

Mozambique is a large country covering more than 2,000 kilometers in length, with an area of over 800,000 square kilometers and a population of approximately 17 million. The greater part of this population lives in scattered settlements in the rural areas.

Mozambique is also a coastal country that possesses outstanding potential for development of port facilities for international and coastal shipping.

As happened and indeed still is happening in many African countries, war, drought, and famine forced people to move out of the rural areas, with the result that a large proportion of

73

the population is now concentrated in small urban areas, some of which have been occupied in an unplanned fashion.

The need to ensure an adequate transportation system for the rural areas, together with an efficient system to serve the countries of the hinterland, and to make moving about the cities easy, led the Government of Mozambique to approve and adopt policies aimed at promoting concrete actions in the transportation sphere, some of which are consistent with the Sub-Saharan African Transport Policy Program, which is jointly coordinated by the World Bank and the Economic Commission for Africa.

Your presence in Maputo will not only make it possible for action strategies and agendas to be formulated for the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy Program, but will also undoubtedly promote the consolidation of strategies and actions designed to make Mozambique’s transportation system more efficient.

Since the objective of your work is the improvement of transportation as a decisive factor that serves to promote the economic development and social well-being of Sub-Saharan Africa, on behalf of the Government of the Republic of Mozambique and in my own name, I would like to welcome you all to this annual meeting of the Sub-Saharan African Transport Policy Program.

Urban, rural, or international transportation facilities are an important factor and one that serves to foster the development of a country and of a region. However, they do not by themselves alone resolve the problem of the abject poverty that the majority of the people of the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa have to contend with. Poverty alleviation will be accomplished with concrete and integrated multisectoral development programs in which an efficient transportation system will be one of the principal components.

Since the proclamation of national independence, Mozambique has passed through different stages of development. The war of destabilization foisted on the country was the period in which the transportation system suffered the most, with the road infrastructure being chosen as one of the main targets and being largely destroyed or abandoned because of the prevailing lack of security. The period that followed the signing of the general peace agreement in October 1992 was, on the one hand, marked by peace and reconciliation among Mozambicans, and on the other, by the start of a qualitative move forward in the management and operating capacity of the transportation system.

In the road sector, programs were set up involving national and foreign investments of over US$1 billion which, besides improving the usability of the roads, also helped to fund the introduction of road management reforms. An autonomous roads authority was established, which featured innovations such as inclusion of users in the management of the roads and separation of management from financing.

74

Rural transportation and mobility, a recently designed program that is currently being set up in Mozambique, is also an initiative that seeks to use an integrated approach to resolving the problem of transportation and development in the rural areas.

NEPAD is a major African initiative for the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy Program, the subject of our workshop. It is the duty of every African to contribute his or her knowledge to NEPAD, so that this project for the self-sustained development of Africa will prove a success. NEPAD sees infrastructure and the training of human capital as key to its success. In our countries, the transportation systems constitute a decisive factor, if we want Africa’s agricultural and industrial potential to be able to eliminate the image of hunger that the world associates with us and for our countries to be able to enter and compete in the world market.

I note with considerable concern and apprehension the fact that HIV/AIDS is spreading and assuming devastating proportions on our continent. Our peoples are the victims of this pandemic, which affects especially our young people, in whom we must invest everything that we can, thereby preparing them for the role ahead of them. Our youth and our workers have been the groups hit the hardest. I see that many of you are young, and for that reason I encourage you to make a personal and personalized contribution to the campaigns to prevent and reduce HIV/AIDS.

Distinguished guests,

Ladies and gentlemen,

In concluding, I would like to express our thanks for the contribution that our cooperation partners have made to the different transportation programs in Mozambique.

I also wish to thank all the institutions and individuals who have made the holding of this workshop possible.

The participation of all, and especially of the coordinators from the different countries, in the discussion of the items on the agenda, will help with the formulation of common strategies and actions for transportation. We are eager to hear your contributions and recommendations. In the struggle against poverty in which we are engaged, your knowledge and experience are of inestimable value for us.

Despite the difficulties that we have experienced, Mozambique is a beautiful country. Do not miss the opportunity, during your free time, to get to know our capital city better. As you walk around you will undoubtedly sense the vibrancy of our people and become profoundly aware of the strength of our resolve to build a more prosperous and developed country.

Thank you for your attention.

Mr Chairman, Your Excellency Ministers Tomáz Salomao and Roberto Cosley-White, Honourable Ministers, ladies and gentlemen,

On behalf of the Board of SSATP, it is my pleasure to thank the Ministers for setting aside time in their busy programmes to join us the opening session and especially Minister Salomao for opening the 2002 SSATP Annual Meeting. This meeting, this year, is a very special occasion. For the first time SSATP brings together all its component and stakeholders. And, by bringing together people from all the sub-regions of SSA, this will surely facilitate and enrich the sharing of experiences in roads, railways and ports as well as fostering the family spirit of SSATP.

It’s also very appropriate that we find ourselves in Mozambique, a country which easily relates to SSATP, as:

�� Road Management Initiative is at the heart of ROADS 3 – Mozambique’s road sectoral development programme that’s supported by many multi-lateral and bilateral donors

�� Rural Travel and Transport also complements ROADS 3 and is essential for supporting Mozambique’s Poverty Reduction Strategy which aims at increasing rural access and mobility,

�� Trade and Transport is also a vital contributor to Mozambique’s transport development corridors, which run inland from the ports of Maputo, Beira and Nacala into South Africa, Zimbabwe, Malawi as well as attracting traffic from countries further away such as Zambia and Botswana,

�� Urban Mobility is poised to play its role in Mozambique, where urbanisation is at lower levels than in many other SSA countries. It’s therefore the right time for Mozambique to benefit from lessons learnt from this component before Maputo and other major towns become congested and polluted,

�� Railway Restructuring – Mozambique is very familiar with the railway concessioning process – it can therefore contribute to SSATP as well as learning from other countries, such as Cote d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Cameroun etc where concessions have been operating for several years.

Mozambique, as one of the coastal countries of SSATP, is therefore a good example of a country where a programme approach has potential for increasing SSATP’s efficiency in facilitating the development of affordable, safe and sustainable transport services.

76

I would therefore invite the Ministers, if they could find time, in their busy lives to attend some of the sessions this week, possibly the stakeholder workshop on Thursday or the Annual General Meeting on Friday. I also hope that we will have an active participation from their staff and other agencies dealing with roads, ports and railways.

I, would also like to take the opportunity, and I’m sure my fellow Board members would agree, of mentioning the linkages between SSATP, NEPAD and the recently announced G-8 Africa Action Plan. SSATP is recognised on several occasions in NEPAD’s Infrastructure Initiative for which a draft short-term plan of action will be reviewed this week in Durban in the context of OAU/AU. And, the G-8 Africa Action Plan refers to infrastructure in its third of eight engagements, titled, – Fostering Trade, Investment Economic Growth and Sustainable Development. NEPAD therefore counts upon an efficient and effective SSATP performance to reach these goals.

Mr. Chairman, I will finish by thanking the Honourable Minister for the warm welcome he has extended to us all. And, I would ask participants to rise to the challenge of clearly identifying how SSATP develops its programme approach and to specify how such an approach and component activities fit within their own country transport programme. If we together achieve this goal we will leave Maputo satisfied with our work and hopefully have still found sometime to explore the wonders of this impressive city of Maputo.

Thank you.

Mr. Chairman,

the Minister of Transport of the Republic of Mozambique

Your Excellency, the Honourable Ministers,

Distinguished Delegates,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I wish to express the gratitude of the Executive Secretariat to the World Bank for inviting ECOWAS to participate in this important SSATP meeting in MAPUTO.

Your Excellency,

Distinguished delegates,

The idea of developing a sub-Saharan Africa Transport Programme arose from the need to provide safe, reliable and affordable transport services to the people of Africa with a view of lighting the masses out of poverty.

As you may recall, ECOWAS was more particularly engaged in the Road Maintenance/Management component of the programme since 1995. It was at the 10th RMI/RTTP Coordinating Committee meeting in Yaounde in 1995 that the World Bank and the European Union agreed to organize a regional seminar on the road maintenance initiative. Today nine (9) ECOWAS countries are fully involved in the RMI Programme.

I wish to state here that ECOWAS is equally involved in the other four components of the SSATP and will support any modifications that would be envisaged to gradually change from the component approach to a programme approach. We believe the programme approach will address all the critical issues and embrace all the aspects that can bring sub-Sahara Africa out of poverty.

Mr. Chairman;

Ladies & Gentlemen;

ECOWAS will endeavour to seek the High level commitment required from our governments for the SSATP programme which is in fact embedded in the NEPAD programme for Africa At this meeting, the delegates will need to search for ways of building coherence for all the components so as to ensure that the development of agriculture produce in our an area will

78

imply simultaneous development of schools, hospitals, markets, rural roads and social services in the same zone. In my view, the holistic approach could strengthen and ensure African involvement and accountability. At the ADF III (African Development Forum) held in Addis Ababa in March 2002, the African Ministers of Transport assigned to the SSATP the role of principal transport development tool as the way forward for UNTACDA II and to extend this to the whole of Africa

Mr. Chairman,

It is not my intention to put the cart before the horse. I believe your fruitful deliberations will result in far reaching decisions that could help to improve the transportation system in Africa.

It is our intention to seek your support for the development of interconnecting railway in Africa considering the enormous advantages this mode of transport has over others in terms of pollution, safety and mass transit of goods and persons.

Ladies & Gentlemen;

I appeal to this meeting to deliberate on a railway concessionary toolkit as a means of encouraging public private sector participation in the Development of the railways. This is the only way we can ensure commercialization and the restructuring of the railway management.

My second appeal is for the SSATP through our development partners to examine the possibility of assisting ECOWAS to set up observatories along the Community road network so as to reduce if not eliminate harassment and long delays for goods in transit and for travelers.

Finally, I wish to thank the host country, Mozambique for the assistance granted to the World Bank and our development partners for organizing and for sponsoring this meeting.

I thank you very much indeed for your attention.

V. SOLUTIONS ET RECOMMANDATIONS

INTRODUCTION

� Sans transport il n’y a pas d’échanges commerciaux.

� La compétitivité du Commerce requiert la maîtrise de la chaîne logistique

intégrée du transport.

� Maîtrise de la chaîne repose sur la connaissance des règles, normes,

mécanismes, procédures et usages édictés par les Conventions

internationales.

� A tous les niveaux hiérarchiques en Afrique Subsaharienne, les principes

de base en vigueur des Conventions Internationales ne sont pas

respectés dans le temps et dans l’espace.

� D’où le dysfonctionnement permanent des Corridors de transport Inter-

États, Intra-Communautaire et Inter-Communautaire.

� Quelles solutions idoines pour la Gestion Intégrée des Corridors en

Afrique Subsaharienne?

90

I- RAPPEL DES NOTIONS SUR LE FONCTIONNEMENT CONVENTIONNEL DU TRANSPORT EN TRANSIT

� Le caractère défensif, lucratif et spéculatif de la gestion des

Corridors a engendré: la multiplicité des opérations, documents,

procédures de contrôle, prélèvement et des intervenants.

� L’objet, le rôle, les attributions, le fonctionnement des acteurs

varient au gré des intérêts du moment, au détriment de la

compétitivité et des performances des Corridors.

� D’où la nécessité de faire un rappel sur les principes de base des

Conventions Internationales de référence, de les codifier pour

assurer l’optimisation des activités commerciales et des Transports

internationaux.

A- Le cadre institutionnel et juridique

* Objectifs des Conventions internationalesÉdictés par la CNUCED, l’OMI, le GATT/OMC, le CCI, l’ISO, l’IRU, l’OMD…

Les objectifs sont:� optimiser les activités commerciales et les transports internationaux en vue

de stimuler le développement économique, • favoriser et assurer l’expansion ordonnée du commerce et du transport ;• harmoniser les normes et les moyens techniques de déplacement des

marchandises ;• faciliter les formalités et procédures du commerce et du transport ;• harmoniser, simplifier, unifier les documents du commerce et des transports ;• accélérer les opérations physiques du transport ;• optimiser les coûts et les délais ;• protéger l’espace économique de chaque pays contre les fraudes fiscales et

douanières ;• accorder des facilités maritimes portuaires et de transit pour les pays sans

littoral maritime ;• accorder des régimes de faveur à certaines catégories de marchandises ;• faciliter le transport intégré ;• favoriser la conclusion de contrats commerciaux (achat /vente) et de

transport ;• mettre en place des bases de données sur toute la chaîne du commerce et du

transport.

91

A- Le cadre institutionnel et juridique (suite)

* Quelles sont ces Conventions?� La convention internationale pour la simplification des pratiques douanières

(1923). � La Convention relative au Contrat de Transport International de Marchandises par

Route, dite Convention de Genève (C.M.R., 1956)� La Convention Douanière relative aux conteneurs (1956-1972)� La Convention visant à faciliter le Trafic maritime International (Convention FAL,

OMI, 1965) � La Convention Internationale relative au Commerce de Transit des pays sans

Littoral (New York, (1965). � La convention internationale sur la Simplification et Harmonisation des Régimes

Douaniers, dite convention de Kyoto (1973). � La convention douanière relative au transport international de marchandises sous-

couvert de carnet TIR, dite Convention TIR (1975). � La convention des Nations Unies sur le Transport Multimodal.

B- Normes, règles mécanismes de fonctionnement, quelle application idoine ?

� Transport Multimodal� Transport combiné� Chaîne logistique intégrée de transport� Inter modalité du transport

C- Quelle optimisation du transport international ?

* Distribution Physique Internationale� Règle d’or : permettre de «transporter le produit adéquat dans la

quantité requise, à l’endroit convenu et au moindre coût total ; pour satisfaire les besoins du consommateur sur le marché international, Juste à Temps (JAT) et en Qualité Totale (QT) ».

Quatre piliers sont :• Le contrat d’achat/vente internationale (Incoterms); • Le contrat de transport international de marchandises (Lettre de voiture, B/L,

LTA, DTM);• Le contrat international d’assurance de la marchandise (Police, certificat

d’assurance); • Le contrat international de paiement (Crédit documentaire). Application de la règle d’or pour industriel, producteur, agricole, commerçant

repose sur: – Information en temps réel sur la marchandise circulante depuis l’usine, bord

champ, entrepôts jusqu’au consommateur final ;– Prix de vente CAF, le prix boursier, le prix de vente à la consommation ; – Comparaison des chaînes logistiques intégrées de transport des produits

concurrents par rapport à d’autres provenances .Détermination de la mise à marché de ses produits en fonction des critères ci-

dessus

Formation des transporteurs et des chauffeursLe renforcement des capacités est un facteur essentiel de l’activité de

transport. La formation concerne tous les acteurs et tous les domaines de la fonction transport :

• Connaissance et perfectionnement des transports Inter-États et régional

• Connaissance et perfectionnement en matière, de normes, de règles, de

mécanismes, de procédures et d’usages dans les transports

• Connaissance en matière de concurrence , de compétitivité, et de performance du transport liée au commerce

Mise en place d’un code de conduite professionnelle

• par activité

• par filière de produit/marchandise

93

II- IMPORTANCE ECONOMIQUE DU TRANSPORT� Sans transport, il y a pas de commerce extérieur

• A/ En Afrique subsaharienne

� Environ 90% des échanges extérieurs en Afrique subsaharienne passe par la mer.� Environ 60% des échanges hors d’Afrique se font particulièrement avec l’Europe.� Entre 60% et 90% du Commerce Inter-régional s’effectue par voie routière.

B/ Exportations africaines de la CEDEAO

� Exportations:

• CEDEAO (intra) ���� 17%

• Afrique du Sud ���� 25%

• Afrique du Nord ���� 36%

• Autres Pays ���� 22%

� Échanges Inter-régionaux

• CEDEAO : 27% intra-régional – 73% international

• Europe : 63% intra-régional – 37% international

II- IMPORTANCE ECONOMIQUE DU TRANSPORT (suite)

C/ Quelles opportunités d’échanges commerciaux liés au transport dans le cadre de l’African Enterprise Network (AEN) ?

� Mondialisation, libéralisation, intégration économique, NEPAD, quelles réalités, quelle

appropriation pour le secteur privé moderne en Afrique Subsaharienne.

� Solutions idéales et réalistes: les réseaux de l’entreprise sous-régionaux

intégrés au niveau régional. � Afrique Subsaharienne: African Enterprise Network (Addis Abeba).

� Espace de l’Ouest UEMOA/CEDEAO: réseau de l’entreprise en Afrique de l’Ouest (REAO).

� Espace de l’Afrique Australe COMESA, SADC: South African Enterprise Network (SAEN).

� Espace Afrique de l’Est: COMESA, IGAD: EAST African Enterprise Network (EAEN).

� Activités AEN:

Tout secteur d’activités de l’entreprise, en sous-réseaux professionnel.

� Relations d’affaires,

� Développement, facilitation et amélioration de l’environnement des affaires en relations

avec les institutionnels, les bailleurs de fonds, les administrations et surtout d’autres

opérateurs privés,

� Création d’entreprises supranationales par sous secteurs d’activités.

94

II- IMPORTANCE ECONOMIQUE DU TRANSPORT (suite)

Problèmes rencontrés en matière de chaîne logistique intégrée des Transports par les opérateurs privés.

� Les voies de communications (route, rail ) sont vétustes, dans le cas

contraire, elles sont insuffisamment entretenues ; toutes choses qui

ne favorisent pas toujours la fluidité des trafics ;

� Les instruments institutionnels juridiques et administratifs

connaissent une interprétation et une application parcellaires,

disparates et lucratifs; à défaut d’une gestion maîtrisée par leurs

auteurs;

� Les corridors de transport et de transit sont gangrenés par des

contrôles administratifs et prélèvements souvent illicites de la

Police, de la Douane et de la Gendarmerie ( P.D.G. ) et/ou

opérationnels excessifs, successifs, redondant et onéreux ;

II- IMPORTANCE ECONOMIQUE DU TRANSPORT (suite)

� Les véhicules de transport ( route, rail ) sont également vétustes, et sont

pour la plupart inaptes au plombage et au scellement douaniers,

indispensables aux échanges inter- États;

� Les documents administratifs et contractuels sont pléthoriques et leur

exploitation disparate est dans la plupart des cas, en flagrante contradiction

avec les objectifs de la libre circulation des biens et des capitaux prônés par

tous ; pire avec les principes de la Distribution Physique Internationale

(DPI ).

� Initiatives réussies par les Réseaux d’Entreprise:� REAO/ Création de l’observatoire des pratiques anormales aux franchissement des

frontières;

� REAO/ Création de sous réseau professionnel des transports Net-Translog;

� REAO/ Création de Transway Africa: entreprise supra-nationale de transport;

� AEN/ Création de fichiers des hommes d’affaires membres des réseaux sous-régionaux.

95

III/ ORGANISATION ET FONCTIONNEMENT DES TRANSPORTS SUR LES CORRIDORS DE L’AFRIQUE SUBSAHARIENNE

A. Interprétation des conventions internationales de référence

1) Les accords multilatéraux

� Accords routiers

Convention portant réglementation des Transports Routiers Inter-États;cas du TRIE/CEDEAO

D’une manière générale, les accords définissent et réglementent :· les normes de circulation routière ;· les caractéristiques techniques des véhicules ;· les itinéraires de transit ;· l’interdiction du transport routier de abotage ;· les quotas de répartition du fret avec les clés et les mécanismes de gestion par des

bureaux de fret ou des conseils de chargeurs

� Accords ferroviaires bilatéraux/Multilatéraux: Transport International par Fer (TIF)

* les modalités de fonctionnement du réseau entre pays concernés ;

· les règles et procédures de transit sur l’un ou l’autre territoire;· L’ancrage institutionnel et opérationnel dans le port de transit;· Les conditions et modalités de passage des frontières;· L’assurance des marchandises.

III/ ORGANISATION ET FONCTIONNEMENT DES TRANSPORTS SUR LES CORRIDORS DE L’AFRIQUE SUBSAHARIENNE (suite)

� Accords maritimes et portuaires

Signés au profit des pays sans littoral maritime. Ils définissent:

- l’octroi de concession et les facilités portuaires ;

- les principes pour l’exploitation des espaces et installations de stockage ;

- les tarifs préférentiels, les délais de franchise par rapport au régime de

droit commun ;

- les avantages fiscaux.

- l’accès des véhicules et du personnel roulant dans l’enceinte portuaire.

� Accords d’assurance

• Marchandises.

• Faculté.

• Personnel roulant.

• Passager.

96

III/ ORGANISATION ET FONCTIONNEMENT DES TRANSPORTS SUR LES CORRIDORS DE L’AFRIQUE SUBSAHARIENNE (suite)

� Accords douaniers :

Signés au profit des pays sans littoral maritime, matérialisé par des conventions de

transit inspirer du TIR, elles instituent une déclaration permet entre autre de :

• agréer les caractéristiques techniques des moyens de transport ;

• identifier la marchandise et le véhicule, objets du transit ;

• repérer l’itinéraire et les bureaux de passage, frontière, destination ;

• préciser les prescriptions de délai de traversée et autres obligations exigées au

conducteur du véhicule ;

• déterminer le champ d’application du régime et de la déclaration du transit

(territoire national, plusieurs frontières) ;

• déterminer la responsabilité du principal obligé (Transporteur / Transitaire)

• fixer les procédures en cas de force majeure;

• servir de supports statistiques et d’informations en cas d’infractions, de règlement

des différends et de coopération douanière.

V- LES SOLUTIONS ET RECOMMANDATIONS

� Espace concerné:• CEDEAO, UEMOA, OMAOC, CEMAC, COMESA, CEPGL, SACU, EAC, SADC…

� Solutions idoines

• Des comités de facilitations dans chaque État

• L’observatoire des pratiques anormales

• La création de postes de contrôle juxtaposés aux frontières terrestres

• L’harmonisation de l’informatisation des bases de données.

� Les données confectionnées dans les tableaux :

• Tableau 04 (page 17), Tableau 05 (page 20), Tableau07 (page 28), Tableau 10 (page 34 ) du document de base

peuvent permettre en faisant des études de cas, d’engager le commerce inter et intra communautaire en l’améliorant par rapport à l’existant.

� Le projet d’Observatoire des pratiques ; à l’image de ce qui est prévu dans l’espace CEDEAO/UEMOA ; certainement que chaque corridor pourrait sensiblement réduire les inefficacités décriées par tous.

104

Rechercher des moyens technologiques et techniques avancées pour résoudre les problèmes de fiabilisation et de sécurisation des

véhicules de transport

Trois solutions méritent d’être expérimentées :

� Faire don à chaque pays sans littoral maritime de 250 Camions neufs et chacun

de leur partenaire sur le littoral par corridor 50 camions neufs par rapport au

volume des trafics, ou si possible des wagons de marchandises. La gestion de

ces véhicule pourrait prendre la forme d’une coopérative…

� Appliquer un système de tracking des véhicules comme le Projet PNUD/

CNUCED RAF 88-014 l’ avait initié en 1993 sur certains corridors en Afrique de

l’Ouest et du Centre. Cette technonogie a été mise au point par un promoteur de

Côte d’Ivoire SILS TECHNOLOGY.

� Appliquer le Système de Grille Plombé (SGP), brévété pour sécuriser les

véhicules vétustes inaptes au scellement et plombage douanier. Cette technique

est réalisée par un promoteur Ivoirien. Les 25 ministres des transport de

l’OMAOC l’ ont déjà adopté .

Conclusion et Recommandations

• Au niveau politique Face à la mondialisation, la gestion communautaire des activités de transport doit primée sur les intérêts étatiques.

• Au niveau institutionnel

- La libre circulation des personnes, des biens, des services et des capitaux prônée par la CEDEAO et l’UEMOA doit être effective,

- La nécessité de privilégier une interaction positive et synergique, au plan technique, administratif et opérationnel ; en matière de transport Inter-États et de transport régional.

- Création de structures conjointes de gestion devraient exister entre la CEDEAO et l’UEMOA pour éviter d’éventuels clivages partisans et de surcroît pénalisants pour les opérateurs et les économies concernées.

105

Au niveau juridique Au niveau juridique

1 / Convention TIE/ CEDEAO, toilettage en faveur de :• -la suppression des escortes administratives onéreuses ; et des règles de répartition du fret,

des chargements à tour de rôle anticoncurrentiel ; • -L’instauration de contrats type de transport pour les différentes catégories de marchandises

et surtout la restauration du caractère juridique de la lettre de voiture au même titre que le connaissement (B/L) ou la Lettre de Voiture Aérienne (LTA)

2 / Convention TRIE/CEDEAO

Application disparate d’un pays à un autre, par rapport à ses principes fondamentaux :-(70% du parc de véhicules de marchandises est vétuste ; à défaut de pouvoir le renouveler par des crédits appropriés ; il faut autoriser des solutions palliatives sécurisantes tel que le Système de Grille Plombé (SGP) en expérimentation en Côte d’Ivoire; par la Caution Nationale, La Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie, l’Autorité douanière les transporteurs et les transitaires.

-Régionalisation du Fonds de Garantie par un seul prélèvement valable pour toutes les frontières.

-L’instauration d’un Document Douanier Unique valable pour toutes les déclarations aux frontières ferroviaires et routières.

3/ Respect dans le fond et la forme de l’application synergique et intégrée des quatre contrats (commerce, transport, assurance, finance) qui formalisent l’Acte commercial international et des dispositions du Transport Multimodal.

• 4/ Harmonisation de la carte brune CEDEAO et du code CIMA en vue de faciliter une application idoine l’assurance des véhicules et des marchandises.

Conclusion et Recommandations

Au plan administratif

1/ Élaborer des statistiques fiables sur le transport. et renforcer la coopération douanière.

2/ Instituer au plan communautaire CEDEAO/UEMOA, un système d’agrément des taxes, des redevances, des cotisations et autres prélèvements d’une part, et une harmonisation de ceux-ci d’autre part; dans le but de maîtriser les coûts de transport sur les corridors.

106

Au plan de l’organisation

• 1/ Instaurer au plan national et communautaire CEDEAO / UEMOA, des comités nationaux de facilitations du transport et du commerce ; et apporter un appui financier aux projets de l’OMAOC et de l’UEMOA dans ce domaine.

• 2/ Renforcer les capacités des intervenants de la fonction transport notamment les transporteurs et les chauffeurs routiers.

• 3/ Codification et diffusion des compétences des agents de contrôle routier afin d’éviter les amalgames, les confusions qui souvent sources de prélèvements illicites.

• 4/ Faciliter la mise en œuvre des Observatoires des Transports Internationaux par Mer, en vue de maîtriser l’information sur la marchandise circulante de bout en bout (Projet SSATP/ CMEAOC/ Banque Mondiale). A cet égard, des financements conséquents devront être trouvés auprès des bailleurs de fonds, afin réactiver les activités dudit observatoire.

• 5/ Favoriser la mise en oeuvre au plan communautaire CEDEAO / UEMOA / CILSS / REAO (Forum Ouest Africain), de l’Observatoire des Pratiques Anormales aux Franchissements des Frontières ; afin de traquer , de dénoncer, et de sanctionner tous les facteurs (normes, règles, mécanismes, usages) de dysfonctionnement du système de transport. A ce propos, le projet doit être nécessairement étendu à l’espace CEDEAO comme initialement conçu par le promoteur à savoir le REAO ;afin d’intégrer valablement les opérateurs du Ghana et du Nigeria.

Au plan technique

• 1/Communautariser au niveau CEDEAO/UEMOA, la construction, l’entretien et l’exploitation des routes, le long des corridors ; avec comme corollaire, le prélèvement et la gestion communautaire d’un Fond Routier. Cette approche aura l’avantage d’accroître la fluiditédes trafics.

• 2/ Sécuriser les véhicules vétustes (70% du parc) par le Système de Grille Plombée qui confère à la carrosserie des camions, les avantages du conteneur (voir fiche en Annexe);

• 3/ Instaurer les ponts bascules au départ, à la frontière et à l’arrivée sur tous les corridors pour les véhicules de transport en transit, en vue de contribuer à lever le doute douanier.

• 4/ Instituer aux frontières, des postes et des bureaux à contrôle juxtaposé. Soutenir en la matière le projet de l’UEMOA

107

Au plan opérationnel

1/ Adopter une gestion logistique intégrée du transport sur les corridors afin de réduire les coûts, accélérer les procédures, harmoniser et simplifier les documents et optimaliser le délais dans l’espace UEMOA / CEDEAO.

2/ Créer un Guide Pratique du transport et de la Logistique en Afrique de l’ouest pour faciliter l’exploitation idoine des mécanismes, des règles et usages au bénéfice des intervenants de la fonction transport.

3/ Favoriser la création d’entreprises supranationales de transport, telle que Transway Africa à capitaux (Burkinabé, ghanéen, ivoirien, et malien) sur initiative des membres du Sous-Réseau Net Translog du Réseau de l’Entreprise en Afrique de l’Ouest ( REAO), pour mieux répondre aux objectifs de l’intégration économique sous-régionale.

CommentsCommentsCommentsComments

The aforementioned performances can be reduced by a third thereby optimalizing the performance on condition that an integrated management logistic management is put in place together by the policy-makers, the service providers and the transport users.

Judging from what has been mentioned earlier, it could be stated that the transport malfunctioning is one of the main factors responsible for the poor development of intra-community trade in West Africa. In order to resolve the problem, all the partners in the integrated management of corridor transport operation in West Africa should review the situation and adopt a logistic approach in performing their role in accordance with the following recommendations:

Recommendations Recommendations Recommendations Recommendations

Policy Level

In the face of globalization, the community management of transport activities should take precedence over individual state interests.

Institutional Level

The free movement of peoples, goods and services as proposed by ECOWAS and UEMOA should be effective as well as the need to promote positive and synergic interaction at the technical, administrative and operational level in Inter-Country and regional transport.

In fact, there should be joint bodies between ECOWAS and UEMOA to prevent possible partisan divisions and extra costs, which penalize operators and the economies of the countries concerned.

Legal Level

1. A significant review should be carried out on the TIR Convention with emphasis on the following:

�� the abolition of cumbersome administrative escorts as well as the rules governing the distribution of freight and loading in turns which hinder competition and competition;

�� the establishment of specific transport contract for the various categories of goods and particularly the re-establishment of the legal nature of the waybill as the same manner as the bill of lading or the airway bill.

2. ITIR/ECOWAS Convention

�� The implementation of the provisions of this convention varies from country to country when compared with its fundamental principles.

110

�� 70 per cent of the vehicles transporting goods are old as the transporters do not possess the necessary loans for vehicle renewal. Permission should be given for the institution of secure palliative measures such as the System of Lead Sealing (SLS), which is on trial on Cote d’Ivoire involving State guarantee, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Custom Authority, the Transporters and the Transit Agents.

�� Establishment of guarantee Fund on a regional basis in which a single payment is valid for all the borders

�� Establishment of a single customs documents in the ECOWAS space, which is valid for all declarations at rail and road borders as well as for customs duties on goods.

3. Respecting the substance and the form in the synergic and integrated in the

implementation of the provision of the four agreements namely the agreements on trade transport, insurance and finance that constituted the International Trade Agreement and the provisions on Multi-modal transport which should be ratified.

4. Harmonization of the ECOWAS Brown card the CIMA Code to facilitate the strict

application of vehicle and goods insurance in order to safeguard intermodal transport all along the transport chain.

Technical Level

1. Community participation within ECOWAS/UEMOA in the composition maintenance, operations of road along the corridor and consequently the community levy and management of a Road Fund. This approach will contribute to increase in the flow of traffic.

2. Provide security for old vehicles (70 per cent of the fleet) through the system of lead

sealing which gives trucks a container advantage (see sheet attached in an Annex). 3. Establishing weighbridges at departure points, at the border and on arrival and limiting

checkpoints to 3 (three) on all corridors for transit vehicles with a view to removing customs apprehensions and other administrative bottlenecks.

Organizational Level

1. Establish within countries and ECOWAS/UEMOA national committee for the facilitation of the transport and trade.

2. Strengthening the capacity of the operators in the transport function with particular

reference to transporters.

3. Codify and disseminate the skills of road traffic supervisors to prevent confusions which are often sources of illegal dues.

111

4. Facilitate the implementation of an Observatory of International Transport by sea in order to control information on goods moving from one end of the transport chain to other (SSATP Project/CMEAOL/World Bank).

5. Promote the establishment of a community plan ECOWAS/UEMOA/CILSS/REAO for

an Observatory on Abnormal practices at border crossings in order to track down, denounce and punish those guilty/norms, rules, mechanisms, uses, of the malfunctioning of the transport system.

AdministrationAdministrationAdministrationAdministration

1. Prepare reliable transport statistics and strengthen customs cooperation through the harmonization of computerized systems.

2. Establish an ECOWAS/UEMOA community plan on a system of taxes, dues,

contributions and other levies as well their harmonization in order to control transport costs on the corridors.

Operational Level 1. Adopt an integrated logistic transport management system on the corridors in order to

reduce the costs, to accelerate the procedures, to harmonic and simplify the documents and to reduce the time within UEMOA/ECOWAS.

2. Publish a Practical Guide on Transport and Logistics in West Africa to facilitate the

strict operation of mechanisms, rules and usage in force for the benefit of operators.

3. Promote the establishment of supranational transport enterprises such as the Transway Africa with capital (from Burkina Faso, Ghana, Cote d’Ivoire and Mali) through the initiative of members of the professional sub-network Net Translog of the Enterprise network in West Africa (REAO) to better respond to objectives of sub regional economic integration

PERCEPTIONS ON TRANSPORT (1)

“The problem of Africacan be summed up in one word –

TRANSPORT .”(Lord Luggard )

114

PERCEPTIONS ON TRANSPORT (2)

“Distance is technically irrelevant.”(Stafford Beer).

PERCEPTIONS ON TRANSPORT (3)

“While the great powers are trying to get to the moon, we are trying to get to the village ...

While the great powers have been to the moon and back and are now even communicating with the stars ...

We are still trying to reach the village and the village is getting even more remote ..”

Hon. Julius Nyerere

115

PERCEPTIONS ON TRANSPORT (4)

• “A community without roads does not have a way out.”—a poor man in Juncal, Ecuador

• “If we get a road, we could get everything else: community center, employment, post office, water, telephone.”—young woman in a discussion group, Little Bay Jamaica

• ”How would you get a sick person out of here? Walking is impossible, a vehicle would not get out, you could not go by horse—how long does it take to go by horse? The ill person would die.”—a young woman, Los Juries, Argentina

Transport is a means to an end.

LINKAGES BETWEEN TRANSPORT AND POVERTY

Transport is a necessary input to achieve

• Economic growth• Personal welfare• Governance and empowerment• Increased security• Other related objectives

But it is the nature of the input that determines its contribution to poverty reduction

116

EXISTING APPROACH TO THE PROVISION OF TRANSPORT

PrincipallyCommonly, absence of sector wide transport policy.

• Partial analysis, focus on needs of ‘formal’ part of the network, less on ‘informal’ parts used by the poor.

• Emphasis on ‘hard’ side at expense of ‘soft’ side.• Weakest links in the transport chain are those used by the

poor and have highest unit cost.• Poor disadvantaged by the cost of access and the cost of

lack of access.Existing approach not sufficiently pro-poor BUT emerging recognition of need for improvement

TRANSPORT AND POVERTY REDUCTION

Transport can contribute to sustainable growth

• Reducing transaction costs and facilitating trade flows;• Enabling economic players to respond to opportunities;• Lowering the costs of inputs;• Creating employment – in transport and non transport;• Enhancing human and social capital (by improving access

to schools and health centres and reducing isolation);• Improving environmental conditions linked to improved

livelihoods, health and reduced vulnerability of the poor.

But only if well planned, implemented, maintained and used

117

KEY FOCUS FOR PRO-POOR TRANSPORT PROVISION• Creating Opportunities

– economic development linkages (growth, markets, employment, trade)

– human development (education, health—access, attendance, quality, gender)

• Facilitating Empowerment– social development (communications, inclusion) – empowerment&governance (information,

participation&transparency in planning, decision-making, budget allocations, implementation and monitoring)

• Enhancing Security (reducing risk & vulnerability)– households level (affordable, reliable, safe services)– community level (public works, access at disaster)

THE POVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGY PROCESS

• Basis for obtaining debt relief• Promotion of good governance and improved

resource utilization• Framework for medium term planning • Move from Projects to Program support• Designed to be country driven, involve all

stakeholders and participative process BUT…..• IS TRANSPORT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT?

118

TRANSPORT IN POVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGY PROCESS

Emerging experience from practice

• Technical agencies late participants in the process• Quality of technical inputs weak• Transport linkages present but weak with absence of cross

cutting (within and between sectors) treatments• Lack of articulation of actions which promote pro-poor

growth• Absence of sector wide transport policy inhibits quality of

input, existence increases ability to access resources.

TRANSPORT IN POVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGY PROCESS

Challenges to improving existing practice

• Contributing to growth with equity – reduce transport costs but CONSIDER who gains and who loses

• Developing pro-poor institutional, regulatory, legal, etc frameworks

• Mainstreaming gender and social assessment – economic, social and political imperative

• Multi-sectoral work – new skills, new ways of doing things• New partners and changes in existing partnership relationships• Improving our understanding of poverty impact of transport• Enhancing quality of participation and input to poverty

reduction strategies

119

TRANSPORT AND POVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGY PROCESS

Implications of the Challenges

• Donors / World Bank – client centered, value adding assistance technical & advisory

• Within country - appropriate institutional arrangements;- capacity mobilization;- new partnerships and relationship

between stakeholders;- effective resource use - ownership of development process.

Adoption of a holistic approach to transport sector issues.

Rural Travel and Transport ProgramRural Travel and Transport ProgramRural Travel and Transport ProgramRural Travel and Transport Program

Objective of RTTP• The objective of the RTTP is to assist countries to

adopt appropriate and sustainable rural transport policies and strategies

• Such policies and strategies need to address– The promotion of affordable rural transport services

and intermediate means of transport– The physical planning process for rural infrastructure– Conducive management and financing arrangements

for rural transport infrastructure– Appropriate design and selection procedures for rural

transport infrastructure interventions– Suitable implementation mechanisms for rural

transport infrastructure interventions

Achievements• Created a solid knowledge base on rural transport• Promoted enhanced awareness of rural transport issues• Has initiated the process of participatory preparation of

rural transport policies and strategies in 14 Sub-Saharan African countries

• Has led to the preparation of comprehensive rural transport programs in three of the above countries, and numerous smaller initiatives implementing appropriate rural transport policies and strategies

• Has substantially contributed to the understanding of the policy development and the physical planning process for rural infrastructure, as well as to poverty and gender issues

126

The 2002-2003 Program

• Further development of knowledge base and its wide dissemination

• Promotion of exchange of lessons of experience• Completion of rural transport policies and

strategies in at least 14 countries and initiation of multi-donor supported rural transport programs

• Move towards convergence with RMI

Issues Hampering the Development and Implementation of Rural Transport Policies

and Strategies• The persistent maintenance financing gap on main

roads makes it difficult to justify channeling more resources towards rural transport

• The cross-cutting nature of rural transport makes it difficult to find suitable institutional set ups for the implementation of policies and strategies

• There is still a lack of knowledge and experience as to how rural transport services and intermediate means of transport can be promoted

127

Future Challenges for RTTP• Up scaling of pilot rural transport services and

intermediate means of transport promotion programs

• Development of comprehensive, country-wide and poverty focused transport sector policies that adequately consider rural transport issues

• Promotion/initiation of appropriate, country-wide, multi-donor supported rural transport programs

• Promotion of an active, Africa-based rural transport knowledge network focusing on good practice exchange

Urban MobilityUrban MobilityUrban MobilityUrban Mobility

In March 1991, the Urban Transport Component of the SSATP held its first major event, a regional conference in Yaoundé, Cameroon. The key topic of this conference, jointly organized with the International Union of Public Transport (U.I.T.P.) was “Satisfying Urban Public Transport demands”.

Today, in Maputo, we are in a completely different environment. The urban transport crisis, as in may cities all over the world, has worsened, the gap between demand for transport and supply has increased, the service has deteriorated in terms of reliability, quality, environmental impact and safety. Mobility in African cities has been in a downward spiral for decades. Roads have become steadily more congested and sprawling cities have made distances greater. Most of the urban public transport companies of 1991 do not even operate any more.

Has the SSATP’s urban mobility component contributed to alleviate such growing problems? The response to this key question laid the foundation of a new SSATP management structure as well as a comprehensive Business Plan based on the lessons learnt from the past.

On an institutional level, the UM component has contributed to the development of two major institutional reforms in Dakar and Abidjan. Meanwhile, such a breakthrough is not enough for us to claim victory.

As far as the Urban Mobility Component is concerned, let me stress that shifting from issues such as urban public transport in 1991 to the ongoing agenda shows the great change in priorities. Indeed, for a few years, the component, while still focusing on policy reform, as its core business, addresses issues such as microenteprises, road safety, non-motorized transport, urban air pollution. Here is the difference: the urban mobility component’s priority is strongly based on the reality of daily life in sub-Saharan Africa. All these issues are related, connected and such links explain the rationale of considering them as an articulated vision of urban mobility contributing to a pro-growth and pro-poor policy.

Indeed, all studies confirm that one trip out of two is made on foot and more than three quarters of motorized transport is made with the small minibuses. The poor do not own cars: they walk or travel in crowded minibuses. The component’s workprogram takes into account such a reality of daily life in urban areas. In other words, the component focuses on pro-poor policy formulation. More than ever, we will reinforce such a strategic approach.

Another major shift occurred by recognizing the growing importance of the Local Government in urban mobility. Although the decentralization process in sub-Saharan Africa is still an unfinished agenda, municipalities have a key role to play in urban planning, land use, traffic management, to mention only a few. Since 1997, representatives from Municipalities are full

134

members of the urban mobility component and contribute to the preparation and implementation of its work program.

That’s one of the reason why, since 1999, we have signed a Partnership Agreement with the Municipal Development Program (MDP).

Its objective is to promote an effective decentralization in sub-Saharan Africa.

In this context, we published, in July 2001, the materials of the knowledge-sharing session organized in Abidjan in July 2000 with the MDP West Africa. In May 2002, we organized the same kind of one-week session in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, with the MDP East Africa for participants from Anglophone countries.

During the past eighteen months, the regional studies on microenterprises in Bamako, Abidjan, Nairobi and Harare have been finalized. Their findings and conclusions have been published as Working Paper. In April 2001, the eleventh Steering Committee Meeting was held in Accra, Ghana and the proceedings of the meeting published as Working Paper.

In order to extend our knowledge and improve information on accessibility, safety, efficiency and financial sustainability of urban mobility in sub-Saharan African cities, a scoping study on three cities (namely Addis Ababa, Nairobi and Dar es Salaam) was carried out between March and June 2002. The conclusions and recommendations of such a comprehensive study will be presented during this conference. They are expected to facilitate the draft of an Action Plan for policy reform in each of the three cities.

Between 1994 and 1999, Non Motorized Transport was one of the key topics on the component’s agenda. A complete assessment of this important program of activities has been carried out during the last three months in Kenya and Tanzania. Here again, the conclusions of this assignment will be discussed during the component’s sessions. Guidelines for pedestrian and bicycle traffic in African cities have been prepared as major output of the NMT Program and will be disseminated soon. Such guidelines will be an important tool for improving mobility in African cities. More than ever, NMT will remain on the agenda.

As part of the Clean Air Initiative in sub-Saharan Africa, a regional conference on the phase-out of lead in gasoline was held in Dakar in June 2001. Delegates from 25 countries made the official commitment (the so-called Dakar Declaration) that, by 2005, lead will be eliminated from gasoline. Although the message is now largely disseminated across the continent, let’s me again reiterate that lead is a silent threat for those exposed, especially those living or working in the streets: young children are particularly affected: their neurocerebral development can be irreversibly affected by lead through IQ regression. Lead is a poison. Exposure to lead as well as air pollution is linked with poverty.

135

As a follow up to the Dakar conference, four seminars were organized: in Abuja (November 2001), in Dakar (March 2002 for West Africa), in Cotonou (in April 2002 for Benin, Niger, Nigeria and Togo), in Nairobi (June 2002 for East Africa). The main features of the Clean Air Initiative are : ownership by African stakeholders, cross-sectoral approach, awareness raising, public-private partnership, strengthening of African expertise.

Let’s have a look at the future. Although it’s too early, at this stage of our conference, to detail the next step, the following key elements will be taken into account for the urban mobility component: first and foremost the support to policy reform leading to poverty reduction will more than ever be the overarching objective and raison d’être of the component.

Achieving such an overall objective requires a combination of measures and strategic option such as progressively moving to a SSATP programmatic approach to improve the economy of scale of our work, create synergy on join thematic issues with other components and mapping transport policy all across the board at the country level as well as at the regional level.

Another key feature of this strategy will be the strengthening of our cooperation with African institutions in order to increase ownership of the process and anchor our efforts in the region. Such a cooperation will also mean a partial decentralization towards Africa of the component’s coordination.

We also need better tools to supervise the progress made with relevant and regularly updated data. The set up and development of a database (or “performance indicators”) should help us achieving such a monitoring objective. Other activities would be the preparation of a toolkit on regulation of microenterprises, the extension of the scoping study to three other cities, the dissemination of NMT guidelines, the provision of advisory services to prepare policy reforms in additional cities.

To conclude, I would like to emphasize two messages: in this conference room, major transport policy makers, regional institutions, highly qualified experts, representatives from the private sector, well known consultants are gathered. Relevant papers will be presented and debated. This Program has accumulated a tremendous treasure of knowledge. As an example, the Urban Mobility component has published 18 Working Papers during the last four years. We hold winning cards, provided that we implement what we consider our mission statement and keep pushing policy reforms.

The second message is about the opportunity for African Decision makers to take the SSATP as their own business, as a strong tool for regional integration and cooperation in transport. This Maputo conference is the right time and place for strengthening the African ownership of this program.

The way forward may be long and will require a combination of policy, technical, regulatory and institutional measures, as well as financing. But we need to work together to make cities in

136

Africa more “liveable” and attractive to direct investments, in support of sustainable development and economic growth.

As far as the Urban Mobility Component is concerned, reaching such objectives and addressing such challenges would also allow this component to contribute to making the cities in Africa a better place to live , today and for the next generations.

I thank you for your attention and wish us an excellent conference.

Chairperson,

Hon. Ministers,

Your Excellences,

Ladies and Gentleman,

I stand her representing about twenty RMI coordinators from sub-Saharan Africa. This is the 16th meeting of the RMI coordinators annual meeting. We, the coordinators revolted in Pretoria, proposed a way forward in Saly and now in Maputo we rejoice on the outcome.

We are happy to note that we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Since the Saly meeting, there has been good progress on the RMI request. We have implemented almost all the components of the action plan that we formulated. We were given an opportunity to attend the SSATP board meeting held in Washington in July 2001. We have had a meeting of the Task Force in RMI in Lusaka which contributed further to the shaping of RMI in meeting the changing economic in social environment. The Task Force formulated the action plan, defined the TOR for RMI coordinators, formulated the criteria for membership of RMI, location and funding of RMI coordinators and reporting format. Above all, we have come up with a tool kit to measure the performance of RMI in member countries through quantifiable indicators.

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen,

On behalf of the RMI coordinators, I wish to congratulate the organizers for having planned and managed a very successful meeting.

This meeting had been successful in several ways. Firstly the venue, away from the city and our hotels of accommodations provided an enabling environment for total commitment and active participation by all of us. Secondly the programming and facilitation of individual sessions the RMI and RTTP individual and joint session have been well organized and effectively managed to achieve the intended objectives.

Thirdly the seven workshop organized by the facilitators on Wednesday, 3rd July provided the required input, ownership and the direction of SSATP on its way forward.

174

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentleman,

We wish to register our satisfaction of outcome of this meeting.

For RMI/RTTP coordinators, the best output is the proposed action plan for convergence of RMI/RTTP into one program of action to fight poverty through transport cost reduction, and improved accessibility and mobility from the village to the city and from farm to the market.

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentleman,

This holistic approach is commendable. We would like to urge all the other components, namely Trade and Transport, Urban Mobility and Railway restructuring to follow suit. We emphasize the need and urgency and importance of formulating and integrated Transport Policy in all the SSATP member countries as a top priority. This will enable us to manage the scarce resources, to reduce the transport cost, to bring about greater impact on poverty reduction.

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentleman,

We have three requests to make in our drive to achieving the new vision of SSATP. First we would request for an interim meeting of RMI/RTTP coordinators to follow up on the emerging themes and charter the way forward to deliver through a common plan of action.

Secondly there is a request made to hold the next meeting in Burundi. Thirdly, we would like to urge the Donor Community to support the SSATP more actively in view of the positive development through the convergence of RMI/RTTP as the engine of poverty reduction in sub-Saharan Africa.

In conclusion, on behalf of RMI coordinators I would like to thanks you all and congratulate the organizers for a job well done, in our vision to liberate Africa from poverty.

Thank You

176

Objectives• Assess how poverty and social issues are identified

and addressed.– “Good Practices”– “Missed Opportunities”

• Create a “toolkit” to serve as a professional framework for managing poverty/social dimensions of the transport portfolio.

• Help build local capacity to enhance sustainability• Design a retrofitting plan for current projects to

Subject

• Number of projects: 80• Number of countries: 35• % of African population affected: 83%• Total amount loaned: $12 BI• Time Frame: 1990-2008

177

Why?• Millennium Development Goals : Require a move from cost/benefit

justifications to linking the outcomes of transport projects to these poverty/social goals.

• Since 1999, the World Bank Africa Transport Sector has had a partial poverty/social focus:- Initiated several multi-sector projects- Retrofitted all projects for HIV/AIDS and Gender concerns

• Following Vietnam & Guatemala studies of transport/ poverty linkages, the Africa Transport Sector seeks focused instruments to :

- Measure impacts- Integrate findings- Retrofit projects

How?• Reviewed poverty/social issues raised in internal surveys for Africa Transport • Analyzed project documentation: 80 Projects

• In depth: Current projects with more than two years till closing: 13• Cursory: - Projects going to the Board in next 2 years: 22 - Current projects closing within 2 years:25- Projects closed within last 2 years: 20

• Interviewed TTLs, sector staff, SDV field staff to better understand sector perspectives.

• Participated in Transport Forum and AFTTR retreat to fill information gaps.• Visited projects, Government representatives, Donors and NGOs to “ground-

truth” findings and integrate into toolkit.

Poverty/Social issues raised in Bank Internal Evaluations

- Concentration on monitoring outputs and not outcomes- Social studies done in project preparation, but population not disaggregated and little poverty targeting- Technical assistance given, but few or no training opportunities- Some very positive comments on effort for coalition building among government and private sector stakeholders

- Key social indicators not listed in the project documents or monitored and evaluated throughout the project cycle.- Social risks not fully identified & covered in project documentation- Lack of social scientists on the project supervision team- Resistance of key stakeholders- Poor community participation in project design

2- Participation�Has increased over time, but more can be done and it can be better by exploring alternative Partic. Appro.Better focused social analysis in the beginning would help create integrated participatory processes.

3- Learning, Monitoring & Evaluation�No regular written dissemination of different approaches within AFTTR�TTLs do not regularly and systematically address poverty/social issues in their BTOs and Aide-Memoires.�Monitoring systems do not constantly check poverty/social indicators.

1- Social Assessment

Poverty & Social Issues: I= Identified, A= Addressed

182

4-Creating Opportunities• Increasing emphasis on

community training & employment

• Little emphasis on informal sector – especially with reference to services

• No analysis of impacts of income generated in labor based programs (use, control, etc.)

5- Enhancing Security• Little emphasis on Transport

safety (including IMT’s)• HIV/AIDS addressed, but not

other health issues directly• Safeguards responded to, but

not rechecked• Social risks (from/to the

project) rarely addressed in documentation

SOME KEY FINDINGS

- Documentation gaps – (learning, monitoring & reporting)- Unclear poverty alleviation objectives directly linked to the poor populations- Poor mainstreaming of BP’s and lessons learned from MO’s - Second level of analysis needed to better understand poverty and social impacts

Overall

- There is a need to create project specific poverty/social indicators- There is no systematic use of log-frames with social indicators or poverty/social objectives- Supervision (technical and financial) is often confused with monitoring (process evaluation)

Learning, Monitoring & Evaluation

- Security is not yet seen as safe provision of basic needs- Lack of coordination between engineering perspectives on road safety and the social management of roads (i.e. right-of-way management)- Issues such as resettlement, retrenchment and land acquisition are mostly identified but not clearly addressed in the documentation; and therefore can lead to increases in financial and social insecurity - Lack of preventive measures to mitigate the risks (to/from the project)

Enhancing Security

- Transport projects are focusing on wheels – not other commodities that are transported such as water and electricity- Transport projects can be a pipeline for other services or sectors - Job creation is measured only in terms of #’s of jobs, not in terms of impacts (i.e., duration, socio-economic, etc.)

Creating Opportunities

-TTLs accept participation as a useful tool, but participatory approaches (in design, implementation, M&E, ownership) are often not clearly outlined or utilized and subsequently face difficulties in implementation on the ground- Mismatch between Bank regulations and client country regulations (i.e., procurement, resettlement, land-use) - --- Transport Authorities do not have sufficient experience with Stakeholders (identification/consultation/ analysis/participation)

Facilitating Participation

- Poor definitions of “USERS”- Weak integration of Social Scientists into the project cycle- Social assessments and baseline studies are not well focused on the links between poverty/social issues and transport

Social Assessment

183

Missed Opportunities

- Most Good Practices found only on the ground – not in the documents- Information/knowledge sharing/linking with other projects/programs (internal/external) and institutions (donors, international/national NGOs, universities, etc.)- Lack of systems of accountability for the community- New issues accepted (environment, HIV, gender), but way of working does not change

Learning, Monitoring & Evaluation

- Transport safety not mainstreamed in all projects - Safety measures at the workplace environment are not clearly identified and addressed

Enhancing Security

- Creating Transport networks and services (i.e., IMT) that focus on poor/vulnerable populations- Difficulty with WB procurement process (privileging large contractors with low bids) to help keep contract money in-country- Failure to include other service lines along the corridor (construction phase)

Creating Opportunities

- Improving public/private partnerships and using informal sector to enhance project outcomes- Difficulty in “HIV/AIDS and Gender/diversity retrofitting- More communication with stakeholders (workshops generating/disseminating knowledge)- Community participation at all stages of the Project Cycle.- Capacity building within communities, institutions, private/informal sectors- Full participation by the transport sector in the PRSP process

Facilitating Participation

- Poorly focused studies which do not use mixed methods (qualitative/quantitative). Little emphasis on defining country or region specific questions.- Lack of SS in transport sector to help fully integrate poverty/social issues in the PC

Social Assessment

- Social issues checklists for engineers and social clauses for contractors (Mozambique)- Cross fertilization with SDV colleagues (Ghana-Togo, Niger)

Learning, M&E

- Africa-wide Road Safety study initiated- Engineering modifications i.e., speed bumps, by-passes - HIV contract clauses and activities within/outside of the workplaces

Enhancing Security

- Building local capacity at several levels and disaggregating results by gender (Lesotho, Zambia, Senegal, Ghana, Ethiopia)- Small contractor training programs (Lesotho, Ghana, Benin) - Use of social clauses (Mozambique)- Job training for retrenched employees (Mozambique)

Creating Opportunities

- Innovative participatory approaches (ownership) such as community road maintenance (Malawi/Zambia), job creation (Lesotho), decision making (Madagascar)- Projects that integrate IMTs (Madagascar, Senegal)- Empowerment of women (Senegal, Niger, Lesotho)- Accountability to local communities (Niger)- SSATP and RTTP programs

Facilitating Participation

- Creation and use of Social Unit (Mozambique, Ethiopia and Senegal), but somewhat institutionally marginalized - Solicitation of new studies to address poverty/social issues (Ethiopia, Ghana, Niger, Togo, Senegal)- Long-term intensive baseline studies (Madagascar), but needs quicker, targeted interventions

Social Assessment

Good Practices

184

Recommendations

- TTLs to address poverty/social issues in their BTOs and Aide- memoirs - Build links with other transport programs and stakeholders focused on poverty/social issues

Overall

- Ensure participation of social scientists in PC- Promote participation of community-based facilitators and CBOs- Formulate Log-frames with social indicators to better target poverty- Identify and use social indicator triggers for APL’s (adjustment program lending)

Share knowledge with other sectors/communities/institutions

Learning, Monitoring & Evaluation

- Use participatory methodologies to assist in creating community based road safety- Integrate engineering and social solutions; such as right of way management- Better integrate HIV/AIDS activities into larger affected communities- Ensure mechanisms are in place in order to locally monitor safeguard guidelines

Enhancing Security

- Combine opportunities with other development initiatives- Connect more than road/rail – look to water, power, etc.- Focus on complementary activities - Promote systems of accountability for local communities

Creating Opportunities

- Decentralize community budgets for immediate improvements- Use Chambers of Commerce, or other relevant organizations, as platforms for public/private/informal enterprise stakeholders- Use community based organizations and community-based facilitators

Facilitating Participation

- Specify “USERS” precisely- Use mixed methods and disaggregate populations, stakeholders- Make social assessments that link problem identification to solutions- Focus on links between transport and poverty- Design TORs in the field – not DC or other capitals

Social Assessment

Next Steps: An Action Plan1. Disseminate findings from this technical audit2. Create an electronic toolkit for TTLs and

Transport Sector staff3. Retrofit 5-8 projects 4. Initiate 4 kinds of training

1. Transport/SDV staff in DC – dissemination2. Transport/SDV staff: 2 wk training in PSIA, HIV with

transport case studies3. SDV country staff, local social science consultants, AFTTR

and Country Transport Authority staff 4. Dissemination at Transport events in DC and Africa

185

ToolkitThe electronic toolkit will:

- Provide transport staff with particular tools (sample TOR’s, problem analysis, good practice log-frames, etc.) to help identify and address poverty/social issues throughout the project cycle- Incorporate the HIV/AIDS toolkit- Serve as a documentary repository of good practice and alternative approaches- Serve as a resource for transport programs throughout Africa

Training1. Initiate 4 kinds of training & Dissemination

1. Transport/SDV staff in DC – dissemination2. Transport/SDV staff: 2 wk training in PSIA and HIV with

transport case studies; and SDV staff trained in transport issues
