The action is fully aligned with the Government's priorities and addresses the key needs of the mining sector and broadly the mineral value chains. Last but not least, the action comprises a solid technical assistance component, which will support the Government throughout the programme. The present risk could considerably increase in case of a change of attitude of the government towards the CRM partnership with the EU (either linked or independently from the elections' results in 2026).</td></tr><tr><td>2 - planning, processing and systems</td><td>Slow or no advancements on the current policy and legal framework related to the sector</td><td>Low</td><td>Medium</td><td>Weak consultation process, introduction of provisions that are incoherent with the main Government's line, delays in passing crucial policy and legal acts could have an impact on the actions under this programme, which is aiming to support the modernisation of the sector and operationalisation of those legal documents. This can be mitigated through an improved policy dialogue, including the PPDF, and a certain degree of flexibility in the definition of the actions with the possibility of redirecting the funds and the technical assistance towards similar support. From a human rights and gender perspective, the foreseen analysis, assessments and trainings will reinforce institutional capacities to overcome potential resistances and capacity gaps.</td></tr><tr><td>1 - external environment</td><td>The economic and social impact of the debt restructuring process or climate change-disasters can lead to changes in priorities of the Government, especially on the social sectors</td><td>Low</td><td>Medium</td><td>The programme is strongly aligned with GRZ priorities as translated into programmatic documents like the 8NDP and into commitments under the IMF programme. The high potential of the mining sector to increase its contribution to the country's economy is likely to be harnessed by the government during the next years, and activities related to the sector's improvement will be a priority.</td></tr></table>"}, {"bbox": [92, 1376, 266, 1401], "category": "Section-header", "text": "**Lessons Learnt:**"}, {"bbox": [92, 1403, 1161, 1519], "category": "Text", "text": "**Supporting existing government priorities:** In a context where the low fiscal space does not allow the government to fully implement its policies and commitments, projects that align with these priorities, and that come in support of the government efforts, are more likely to reach their targets, to generate high quality policy and political dialogue and to be more impactful on the ground."}, {"bbox": [92, 1520, 1161, 1606], "category": "Text", "text": "**Local ownership and participation:** as the project is targeting the mining sector as well as the ASM sub-sector at grassroots level, it is important to involve local communities, local government actors and traditional leadership in both planning and implementation process.
