| Summary: | Development practitioners are acutely
aware of the need to find more effective ways to improve
basic living conditions for the poor, as traditional
approaches of delivering public support have not always led
to the results intended. Output-Based Aid (OBA) is a
results-based instrument that is being used to improve the
delivery of basic infrastructure and social services to the
poor, often through public-private partnerships. This note
provides an overview of the use and performance of OBA based
on the World Bank study 'output-based aid: lessons
learned and best practices' (Mumssen, Johannes and
Kumar 2010). |
