The analysis steps back from the World Bank Group’s existing portfolio to conduct a broad overview of the country’s socioeconomic development. The SCD is designed as an analytical input for stakeholders to debate development priorities. It was undertaken during the period in which the government was developing a new accelerated growth and shared prosperity strategy (strategie de croissance acceleree et prosperite partage, SCAPP). The diagnostic draws on an extensive knowledge base and presents findings and conclusions in an accessible format geared towards stimulating dialogue with the authorities and relevant stakeholders. The SCD is derived principally from the wealth of recent analysis by the World Bank Group and other sources. While studies were undertaken during the course of the SCD preparation to complement the existing analytical knowledge base, important knowledge gaps remain. The SCD identifies these gaps and presents a range of issues for further analysis. 2017-08-28T15:41:59Z 2017-08-28T15:41:59Z 2017-05 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/311841500256927016/Mauritania-Systematic-Country-Diagnostics http://hdl.handle.net/10986/27997 English en_US Systematic Country Diagnostic; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Systematic Country Diagnostic Africa Mauritania
