Summary: | The purpose of this report is to assess
progress to date in implementing the World Bank's
strategy for governance and public sector reform, Reforming
Public Institutions and Strengthening Governance: A World
Bank Strategy. It is organized according to the goals and
commitments laid out in the Strategy itself, to allow
readers to track to what extent the Strategy is being
implemented. Part I synthesizes progress and issues across
the Bank, while Part II highlights specific challenges and
approaches of individual Regions, the Development Research
Group, and World Bank Institute. The treatment of governance
issues and the focus on institution building in Country
Assistance Strategies (CASs) and Bank programs have
increased steadily over the past four years. Almost all
recent CASs diagnose the governance situation in the
relevant country, and lending for governance and institution
building has increased significantly. Operations Evaluation
Department and Quality Assurance Group ratings indicate that
the quality of the public sector portfolio has improved
considerably and that the number of projects at risk has fallen. |
