| Summary: | In policy reform Advisory Services (AS)
projects the concept of 'good practices' often
floats around, not knowing when or where to land on a
'project runway.' So the question here is how and

'international expert' and/or 'study
tours' are mentioned, projects become vulnerable to
criticism of wasted money and shopping sprees. The
experience from International Finance Corporation (IFC) AS
in the Middle East and North Africa's (AS MENA)
'Alexandria Business Start-up Simplification'
Project in Egypt stands out as a good example of a project
that used international good practices both at the right
