Title: Analytical and advisory services for comprehensive and participatory development
Abstract: The paper focuses on the experience with comprehensive assessments, and planning exercises in the public, and private sectors, and draws out the implications for implementation of the Comprehensive Development Framework (CDF). The Bank has devoted significant resources to its tools, and frameworks, and often imposed them on its clients in the development assistance. Economic, and sector analyses should diligently, and unilaterally diagnose problems, in a dual definition of the challenges, and collaborative search for solutions, while the analytical methods should advance a formal knowledge transfer, and capacity building to support decisions. Following the development strategy, the paper highlights the experience of the long-term perspective studies in Africa, and the development lessons of East Asia, and its miracle economies, following the financial crisis. Lessons from recent evaluation of comprehensive diagnostic tools are considered, namely through public expenditure reviews, poverty and social assessments, and structural reviews, including sectoral, and corporate planning.
