Abstract:
The purpose of this Country Strategy Paper (CSP) is to provide the overall framework for EC cooperation with PNG in the context of the support to be provided under the 10th EDF (2008-2013). The framework is based on the global objectives of the EC-ACP cooperation, PNG's own development strategy, an analysis of the political, economic and social situatino in the country, and an assesment of the past cooperation programmes of the EC and other donors. The CSP concludes by proposing an EC response strategy for the 10th EDF with the indicative planning further elaborated in the NIP.
