Implementation MfDR CAP-Scan
in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania
Mauritania was the first country to implement the Managing for Results Capacity Scan process. Mauritanian officials were interested in piloting the CAP-Scan as a mechanism to assess their overall progress in results management and effectiveness in development planning and implementation.
In July 2008, the CAP-Scan process began with efforts to adapt the self-assessment matrix and all other documents related to the methodology to best reflect the Mauritanian context. These materials were shared with the Ministry of Economy and Finance at an official launch meeting. During the CAP-Scan workshop, which was attended by high-level officials from all key ministries, participants developed an action plan to improve capacities in six priority areas. The Director General of Development and Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Finance and Economy will lead CAP-Scan follow-up actions, with the support of focal points from several Ministries.
