| Summary: | Latin America and the Caribbean (LCR)
will be center stage in the global development debate as
leaders from around the world convene in Lima, Peru for the
annual meetings of the World Bank Group and International
Monetary Fund. Critical progress in poverty reduction has
been made in the region over the last decade. The region’s
bottom 40 percent of the population saw growth eclipsing
that seen by the group in every other region in the world.
However, a global slowdown in economic growth and activity
challenges these positive strides. The stories in this
report embody concrete successes of countries working
together with the World Bank. Innovative development
approaches were designed and implemented. Individuals,
communities, countries, and even regions benefited from
better health, education, governance, disaster risk
management, and more. |
