Summary: | The synthesis report concerns to go
beyond a summary of the country studies to provide lessons
and recommendations on how to further improve Poverty and
Social Impact Analysis (PSIA) effectiveness. To do so, it
draws on findings from country case studies, the literature
and recent internal Bank reviews (World Bank 2006, 2008) on
PSIA. The synthesis is structured in three parts. Section
two reviews the role of PSIA in country work drawing on
internal guidance from the Bank and the wider literature. It
introduces the PSIA framework and the main elements of an
effective PSIA. Section two ends with a presentation of the
review framework and the approach to sampling and
methodology for the country studies. Section three presents
the bulk of the review findings and lessons learned with a
focus on lessons for embedding PSIA into country processes.
Section four addresses the future of PSIA with
recommendations aimed at: (i) improving the influence that
PSIA has on policy and planning processes in-country, and
(ii) ensuring that it is applied more routinely by partner
governments and Bank programs. |
