The National Assembly of Côte d’Ivoire has unanimously adopted in plenary session the bill on the 2026–2030 National Development Plan (NDP), the country’s main strategic economic framework for the next five years.

The plan, adopted under the leadership of Mr. Patrick Achi, sets a total investment envelope of 114,838.5 billion CFA francs. Funding is expected to come primarily from the private sector (70.2%), with the public sector contributing 29.8%.

Structured around six strategic pillars, the NDP targets an average annual growth rate of 7.2% and aims to raise GDP per capita to 4,500 USD by 2030. Priority investment areas include energy, transport infrastructure, vocational training, and agricultural value chains.

The unanimous parliamentary vote follows earlier approval by the Committee on Economic and Financial Affairs, confirming the plan as a national commitment that extends beyond political cycles.

Côte d’Ivoire’s decision to submit its national development strategy to parliamentary approval is seen as a step that strengthens institutional legitimacy and enhances the country’s credibility among investors and development partners.

The constitutional process will continue with the bill now being transmitted to the Senate for review at its next session, which represents the final stage before its implementation.

The Ministry of Planning and Development will oversee the implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the 2026–2030 NDP in coordination with sector ministries and technical and financial partners.
