The CODE noted that such forms of fragility and violence could include IBRD and blend countries, small island states, fragility due to organized crime and violence, and fragility due to ethnic tensions. The proposed evaluation is intended to respond to this demand and to broaden the Bank Group s perspectives on addressing the development challenges arising from conflict and violence. 2014-12-17T18:29:25Z 2014-12-17T18:29:25Z 2014-07-23 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2014/07/20289383/world-bank-group-activities-situations-conflict-violence-ieg-evaluation http://hdl.handle.net/10986/20762 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank Group, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Working Paper Publications & Research

The FCV cross-cutting solution area is expected to enhance a systematic and coordinated approach across the Bank Group. The Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) of the World Bank Group contributed to this effort by undertaking an evaluation, World Bank Group Assistance to Low-Income Fragile and Conflict-Affected States: an Independent Evaluation (IEG 2014).
