      abstract = {This study developed a single country computable general  equilibrium (CGE) model including a Household  disaggregation in order to measure the potential impacts of  two scenarios, the first on full liberalization and the  second on the potential implementation of Economic  partnership agreement (EPA) between European Union and  Ecowas. The classical indicators of poverty and inequality  were also computed in addition to the equivalent variation  measure in order to capture the effects of the  implementation of these policies on Senegalese households.  The results show that the EPA scenario seems to be more  beneficial in term of welfare variation than the full  liberalization scenario. However, the urban households seem  to benefit more. The analysis of the inequality indicators  shows whatever the scenario considered a decrease of the  income inequality. However the EPA scenario again seems to  be more beneficial. Lastly, concerning the poverty  indicators, the two scenarios envisaged did not seem to  reduce poverty.},
