Book Description
NEEDS, the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy is Nigeria’s Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP). Major national stakeholders contributed to its drafting and endorsing its agenda. The publication describes the broad strategic thrusts, target, and instruments; and it charts the overall direction, and how to get there. In a way it is a vision of what is feasible within the medium and longer term framework and an action plan for budgeting. Building on earlier efforts, the Interim Poverty Reduction Strategy, NEEDS is more participatory, larger in scope, coordination and content (more focused and reform based). (DÜI-Sbd).

Nigeria's Economic Reforms
Author: Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780979037658
Category : Nigeria
Languages : en
Pages : 28
Book Description
"Following years of economic stagnation, Nigeria embarked on a comprehensive reform program during the second term of the Obasanjo administration. The program was based on the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy (NEEDS) and focused on four main areas: improving the macroeconomic environment, pursuing structural reforms, strengthening public expenditure management, and implementing institutional and governance reforms. This paper reviews Nigeria's recent experience with economic reforms and outlines major policy measures that have been implemented. Although there have been notable achievements under the program, significant challenges exist, particularly in translating the benefits of reforms into welfare improvements for citizens, in improving the domestic business environment, and in extending reform policies to states and local governments." The authors argue that the reform program must be considered as 'initial steps on a long journey'; consequently, they have outlined a number of outstanding issues that need to be addressed by future Nigerian administrations.

Mobilizing Science-Based Enterprises for Energy, Water, and Medicines in Nigeria
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309111188

Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Developed in collaboration with the Nigerian Academy of Science, this report explores the ways in which science-based private enterprises can be created and encouraged in Nigeria and other developing countries to provide products and services that government is unable to supply in a timely and sustainable manner. Focusing on three critical challenges to health and developmentâ€"safe water, electrical lighting, and malaria therapyâ€"the report identifies a sample technology to address each of these challenges with potential for commercialization in Nigeria and Africa, and uses that sample technology to identify opportunities and barriers to creating the science-based enterprises in Nigeria.

Energy Policies for Sustainable Development Strategies
Author: Nnaemeka Vincent Emodi
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811009740
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
In this book, a number of long-term energy scenarios are developed for Nigeria considering the impact of vital factors that may influence energy policies in the country’s future energy system. The energy scenarios were developed through the Long-Range Energy Alternatives Planning System (LEAP) model. The model identified the future energy demand and supply pattern using a least-cost combination of technology options while limiting the emission of greenhouse gases. The book presents four scenarios, and key parameters considered include GDP, households, population, urbanization and the growth rates of energy-intensive sectors. Further, it highlights the findings of the cost-benefit analysis, which reveal the costs of implementing selected policies and strategies in Nigeria, including those focusing on energy efficiency and fuel/technology switching. The book also discusses the application of the LEAP-OSeMOSYS Model in order to identify lowest-cost power plants for electricity generation. Some sustainable strategies that can ensure a low carbon development in Nigeria are also explored on the basis of successful country cases in relation to the Nigerian LEAP model. As such, the book will help policy makers devise energy and sustainable strategies to achieve low carbon development in Nigeria.
