Guatemala is at an historic juncture,
following a political and institutional crisis in 2015, a
newly elected government is starting to take on deep-rooted
development problems. The crisis was triggered by the
uncovering of a corruption scheme that permeated the tax
administration superintendence (SAT) and the highest
political levels. The country has enormous
potential to generate growth and prosperity for its
population; yet growth remains low, poverty and inequality
persistently high, and high rates of childhood stunting
threaten Guatemala’s ability to reach its full development
potential. This glaring juxtaposition highlights the
existence of two Guatemala’s, with large gaps in both social
and economic outcomes. In this context, the World Bank
Group’s (WBG) new country partnership framework (CPF) seeks
to support Guatemala in fostering inclusion of vulnerable
groups, and addressing bottlenecks to sustainable growth. |
