The World Bank's Sector Strategy papers are designed to complement Country Assistance Strategies by providing a sectoral perspective on the Bank's comparative advantage, effectiveness, and priorities.
Each Sector Strategy paper provides a statement of the Bank's current strategy in a particular sector. These papers reflect the lessons learned about past Bank involvement in particular sectors based on internal and external evaluations. They also determine priorities for research, staffing, and policy work and contribute to the Country Assistance Strategy by identifying countries where particular sector issues loom large. They are intended to contribute to an ongoing dialogue among parties interested in promoting development in the sector.
The Sector Strategy papers will be produced by the Bank's Human Development Network, Poverty Reduction and Economic Management Network, Environment and Socially Sustainable Development Network, and Finance, Private Sector, and Infrastructure Network. It is hoped that the information provided in this and subsequent volumes of the series will prove valuable not only to Bank staff, but also to the international development community and to readers from client countries. These papers are viewed as a reflection of current thinking in the sector and a contribution to a dynamic dialogue among practitioners. It is hoped that they will promote constructive discussions leading to improvements in sector strategies over time.
