3. USING RBM TOOLS IN FORMULATING, IMPLEMENTING, AND MONITORING SENEGAL’S PRSP Since 2003, the Government of Senegal has put into place its Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP), updated in 2006 to cover 2006- 2010. This document is the framework for economic and social policy in terms of poverty reduction and growth in accordance with the MDGs. Notable results have been obtained in the health and education sectors after the implementation of PRSP II, but additional work is still needed to obtain the MDGs in 2015. A process for developing a new economic and social strategy was thus initiated in March 2010.
