| Summary: | At the United Nations General Assembly
in September 2015, world leaders endorsed 17 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) as a successor framework to the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Placing economic,
social, and environmental sustainability at the center of
development, the new agenda has the potential for a historic
shift in achieving the goal of ending poverty and promoting
shared prosperity. Within this changed and changing context,
the operations and modus operandi of the International
Development Association (IDA) are being examined. As the
world’s largest provider of financial resources to the
poorest countries, it is expected to deliver greater results
in the new development paradigm. In line with the commitment
to learning from the past, this synthesis report presents
findings from recent evaluations and analysis from the
Independent Evaluation Group (IEG). Focusing on the special
themes under IDA16 and IDA17, it aims to offer evaluation
evidence on what has and has not worked in IDA priority
areas in order to support the IDA18 replenishment discussions. |
