| Summary: | This evaluation focuses on the World
Bank Group’s support to enhancing industry-specific
productivity and competitiveness, and examines the
implications of improved industry competitiveness for
employment during the last decade. The evaluation focuses on
activities with explicit objectives to support
competitiveness in the industries of manufacturing
(including agribusiness), information and communication
technology, tourism, and agriculture. The support to economy
wide reforms, which in turn might also have an impact on
these industries, is beyond the scope of this evaluation.
The report draws conclusions on the relevance of the Bank
Group’s support to productivity and competitiveness, the
design and operational implementation of Bank Group
strategies and performance results across different
countries including the impact on employment generation. |
