A. BACKGROUND
I- AFRICAN INFRASTRUCTURE
1.1. Infrastructure pillar of economic grow and regional integration.
Infrastructure have significant implications for achievement of sustainable
development objectives in Africa:
• Therefore critical role of infrastructure in Africa widely recognized
• But deficit in Africa infrastructure also widely recognized
1.2. Initiatives on Infrastructure development
Against this deficit, many initiatives has been undertaken or are ongoing, including:
 EU-Africa Infrastructure Partnership;
 African initiatives: NEPAD Short Term Action Plan (STAP), NEPAD Medium to
Long Term Strategic Framework (MLTSF), Programme for Infrastructure
development in Africa (PIDA);
 Infrastructure Consortium for Africa (ICA);
 Others: African Infrastructure Country Diagnostic Study (AICD), African Action
Plan (AAP), bilateral partnership, etc

I. PIDA SCOPE
PIDA Project covers the 4 sectors ,Energy, Transport, Information
& Communication Technology (ICT) and Water (Transboundary),
and will be to be implemented in two major step: study step and
the step of implementing the results of the study:
PIDA will benefit from Lesson’s learned and data of studies and
initiatives already undertaken or ongoing:
II. OBJECTIVES OF PIDA AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF THE STUDY
PIDA overall objective is to optimise the efforts and use of
resources in order to enable African Stakeholders to speak with one
voice based on a common agenda and a common vision for
infrastructure development.

II. OBJECTIVES OF PIDA AND EXPECTED RESULTS OF THE STUDY (CONT.)
The specific objectives of PIDA are to enable African decision-makers to:
 Establish and implement a strategic framework for the development of regional
and continental infrastructure based on a development vision, strategic
objectives and sector policies;
 Establish and implement an infrastructure development programme articulated
around priorities and phases; and
 Prepare an implementation strategy and process including, in particular, a
priority action plan.
Expected results of the study
•Vision on Africa’s
infrastructure
• Strategic
objectives
• Sector policies
•Regional and continental physical
infrastructure projects
•Mater Plans
• Priority projects /Measures/
Phases
•Rolling plan of priority
actions
• Financing,
• Monitoring and evaluation
