African Economic Outlook 2006
This fact-filled reference book brings the reader the latest available economic information for most of the economies of Africa. Drawing on the expertise of both the African Development Bank and the OECD, it opens with an overview that examines the international environment, macroeconomic performance, progress towards attaining the Millennium Development Goals, and governance and political issues. This edition includes a special section on transport infrastructure issues. The second part provides individual country reports for 30 countries. Each country report provides an assessment of recent economic performance, projections for 2006 and 2007, an examination of structural issues, and a discussion of the political and social context. The statistical annex presents 23 tables comparing economic and social variables across all the countries of Africa.

Senegal
OECD Development Centre
After decades of very average economic growth, Senegal has recorded annual increases slightly above 5 per cent for several years now, largely due to macroeconomic policies and structural reforms. Linked to a generally calm transition of power following the democratic elections of 2000 and to ongoing institutional reforms, this relatively high growth makes the country an interesting case of socio-economic development in Sub-Saharan Africa.
