Making PRSPs Work: The role of poverty assessments
Overview
The Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper framework has not yet delivered better pro-poor economic policies in poor countries. The World Bank and IMF have failed to carry out poverty impact assessments as part of economic reform design. Poverty assessments would underpin a broader debate around economic policies, and help hold the World Bank and IMF to their commitments to make poverty reduction their priority.
