Multiannual National Public Sector Plan.

The Multiannual National Public Sector Plan is a national cross-sectoral plan with a duration of four years (2013-2016). It is structured into four pillars that typify the contribution of the public sector to national development to support and advance the objectives in the National Development Strategy 2030. To this end, the Plan is divided into the following lines of work to be driven by the public sector: quality education for everyone; better integrated health and social security; equal rights and opportunities; local development for territorial cohesion; decent housing in a healthy environment; culture and national identity in a globalized world; sport and physical recreation for human development; reliable, efficient and environmentally sustainable energy; competitiveness and innovation; decent jobs creation; production competitively integrated into the global economy; sustainable management of the environment; effective risk management; actions and policies for adequate adaptation to climate change; rule of law and improved public safety; citizen security and peaceful coexistence; and quality of governance.
The Plan seeks to eliminate hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition through sustainable development. It will strengthen food and nutrition surveillance; strengthen relevant institutions and promote policies to enhance food and nutrition security; and create social programmes on health and nutrition to help the most poor and vulnerable groups. It will also seek to direct credit to basic foods production through short and medium term financing for consumer goods that contribute to food security in the country, and long-term financing for long-term crops, as well as funding for rural microenterprise.
It provides for strengthening the National Council of Agriculture and promotes new models of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries. In particular, it promotes the sustainable development approach to create an enabling environment for competitive agriculture, forestry, and fisheries through the introduction of research to increase productivity, performance and revision of production costs; and finance the generation, validation, dissemination and transfer of technologies, as well as assessing their levels of adoption.
The Plan seeks to reduce rural poverty through an effective and efficient system of social protection. It will implement electrification and drinking water supply programmes in rural areas. In addition, it will improve agricultural production chains to exploit its export potential to generate employment and income for the rural population.
The Plan promotes a more inclusive development through the strengthening of agricultural livestock cooperatives that take actions for food security, as well as social and economic inclusion of small producers and family farmers to value chains. In addition, it seeks to provide financing to subsistence agriculture, and training for small farmers to become part of the agribusiness for export.
Among the objectives of the Plan the development of an effective national system of comprehensive risk management is included, with active participation of communities and local governments. The aim is to minimize damage and enable rapid and sustainable recovery of areas and populations affected by disasters. In particular, the Plan refers to the Comprehensive National Risk Management Plan, the National Plan for Seismic Risk Reduction, the Regulations of the National Fund for Prevention, Mitigation and Disaster Response. Training, investments in infrastructures, and launching awareness and education campaigns are envisaged.
The Plan makes all the public sector institutions responsible for its implementation through their individual mandate, plans, programmes, projects and instruments. In addition, the contribution of each of the different public sector institution in relation to the different line of work under the Plan is indicated.
