Doc 4.6 PAGE Mauritius Log-frame (February 2018)Since the late 1960s, Mauritius has transformed itself from a low-income, agriculture-dependent economy to an upper middle-income diversified economy with high levels of human development. Despite being a small developing island state on the front-line of climate change impacts, Mauritius is one of the most competitive economies in Sub-Saharan Africa and is forecasted to grow further at 4% during 2016-19. The present government has launched a Three Year Strategic Plan 2017/2018-2019/2020, “Rising to the Challenge of our Ambitions”, released with the annual budget speech in June 2017. The Strategic Plan focuses on Mauritius’s ambition to be an inclusive high-income country by 2030, through the “Vision 2030 Development Model”, which will be enabled by higher innovation, increased efficiency of public institutions, increasing skills in the labour force, among others. In Mauritius’ Three Year Strategic Plan, green economy is mentioned as an approach for implementing low-carbon growth and renewable energy strategies in key sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing waste management and tourism. PAGE is supporting the implementation of the Three Year Strategic Plan and the long-term goals towards Vision 2030 by building capacity for the issuance of green bonds, reviewing and tracking public environment and expenditures, assessing industrial waste and related industrial strategies and advancing green economy learning. These actions build on an earlier green economy assessment of six economic sectors and support for the development of the National Marshall Plan against poverty and social exclusion, launched in 2016. The Marshall Plan Against Poverty led to the building of a Social Register for families in poverty eligible for financial support in 2017.Intended ResultsIndicatorsSources/Means of VerificationAssumptions/External FactorsSupporting PAGE Agencies/Fund holder* and PartnersImpact [Overall Long Term Goal, by 2030]Impact IndicatorsMauritius is transforming its economy to eradicate poverty, increase social equity and decent jobs, strengthen livelihoods and environmental stewardship, and sustain growth in line with the Sustainable Development Goals [based on global log-frame]Increased decoupling of growth from resource consumption & environmental degradationIncreased number of decent green jobs (disaggregated by gender)Increased number of people with access to safe water (not relevant for Mauritius)Clean energy, sanitation and other environmental amenities and social servicesReports from International Resource Panel (IRP)SDGs monitoring reportsGlobal Environment Outlook (GEOs)ILO reportsHuman Development Reports (HDRs)Long-term political commitmentCohesive national development planningAll PAGE PartnersGovernmentSocial PartnersOther development partnersOutcomes** [Medium Term Objectives, 2015-2018]Outcome Indicators Overall Outcome: Mauritius has reframed economic policy around sustainability and put in place enabling policy conditions, reforms, incentives, business models, and partnerships to catalyse greater action and investment in green technologies, and natural, human, and social capital [based on global log-frame]Priority national sustainability targets including at sector level announcedInvestment increased to achieve the targetsFiscal, industrial/sector and labour policies made conducive to greening of economic structureA regular capacity development mechanism in place to support ongoing green economy policy processNational mediaGovernment budgetreportsPolicy documentsStakeholders agree on priority sustainability targetsRequired investment or shift in investment takes placeEnabling policies implemented and stableA prominent national Institution designated for providing ongoing technical supportAll partnersSpecific Outcome 1: Mauritius has reinforced and integrated inclusive green economy (IGE) goals and targets into SDG-aligned national economic and development planning through multi-stakeholder collaboration [based on global log-frame]Next medium term development plan includes green economy goals and targetsLonger term development vision includes green economy prioritiesNext development planNext development visionPolitical commitment Governance stabilityAll partnersSpecific Outcome 2: Mauritius has implemented evidence-based sectoral and thematic reforms in line with national IGE priorities [based on global log-frame]At least 2 sectors/thematic areas reflect IGE approach and GE targets (e.g. waste management)Published documentsDecisions by GovernmentAction plans/policy reform documents adopted by GovernmentGovernance stabilityPolitical commitmentAll partnersSpecific Outcome 3: Mauritius has strengthened Individual, institutional and planning capacities for IGE action [based on global log-frame]Number of new institutions with improved capacity to engage in green economy action through PAGE support Number of decision-makers and experts trained who engage in green economy action GE knowledge base among national and sub-national stakeholders establishedWorkshop reportsAnnual PAGE ReportsQuality of trainingGovernance stabilityFunding availabilityAll partnersNational Outputs per Specific Outcome Relates to Global Output # *National Output IndicatorsSources/Means of VerificationAssumptions/External FactorsSupporting PAGE Agencies/Fund holder* & National Partners1.
