IFA Rapport Annuel FY20

Depuis sa création en 2013, l’IFA s’est imposé comme un ac-teur incontournable de la formation macroéconomique en Afrique subsaharienne (AfSS). L’ensemble des 45 pays d’AfSS ont bénéficié de formations dispensées par l’IFA au cours de la première phase. Nos formations sont de plus en plus demandées et les contributions financières de nos pays membres ont nettement augmenté, ce qui témoigne de l’im-portance grandissante que revêtent les activités de l’IFA. La 6e réunion du comité d’orientation de l’IFA, qui s’est tenue à Luanda le 29 mars 2019, a entériné les projets ambitieux de l’IFA à moyen terme, qui ont commencé à se concrétiser avec le lancement de sa deuxième phase, le 1er mai 2019. Ces projets tiennent compte des recommandations formu-lées à l’issue de l’évaluation externe et de la revue 2018 de la stratégie du FMI en matière de renforcement des capa-cités. Au cours de sa phase II, l’IFA doit progressivement étoffer son offre de formation, augmenter son soutien aux États fragiles et se consacrer davantage aux sujets priori-taires au niveau mondial, comme la gouvernance et la corrup-tion, les changements climatiques et les aspects macroéco-nomiques des disparités femmes–hommes. L’IFA proposera également des formations et des outils adaptés pour fa-ciliter les consultations au titre de l’article IV et la mise en œuvre des programmes du FMI auprès des pays membres.

ATI Annual Report FY20

Since its inception in 2013, ATI has continued to establish itself as a choice institution for macroeconomic training in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). All 45 SSA countries benefited from ATI training during the first phase. The fast-growing demand for ATI’s training and the significant increase in financial contributions by member countries demonstrate ATI’s increasing relevance.

The 6th ATI Steering Committee meeting (Luanda, March 29, 2019) endorsed ATI’s ambitious medium-term plans, which start with its second phase launched on May 1, 2019. The plan is guided by the recommendations of the external evaluation and the 2018 Review of the IMF’s Capacity Development Strategy. Under Phase II, ATI aims to gradually scale up training, increase support to fragile states, and do more work on global priorities such as governance and corruption issues, climate change and gender macro-economics. ATI will also support the IMF’s Article IV and program engagement with members countries by focusing its training on areas and tools useful for these discussions.

ATI Program Document Phase II

Building on ATI’s achievements over the last six years, this program document (PD) outlines the strategic plan for the second phase (Phase II), set to begin on May 1, 2019.

A key feature of Phase II is the scaling up of ATI’s operations to keep up with the fast-growing demand for IMF capacity development in the region, including in emerging global and IMF priorities. The PD outlines the conditions for sustained delivery of high quality, demand-driven and relevant training, well-integrated with traditional technical assistance and the IMF’s surveillance and program work in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The PD suggests deepening donor engagement, strengthening ownership by beneficiary countries, and bolstering reporting and accountability.
