Foreword

The Handbook on Poverty and Social Analysis: A Working Document is designed to be a valuable resource to help staff of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), government officers, consultants, project sponsors/borrowers, and other stakeholders to effectively address the poverty and social dimensions of ADBs operations. Ultimately, the handbook aims to contribute to positive development outcomes in the Asia and Pacific region that are inclusive, equitable, and sustainable.

The handbook provides an update on poverty and social analysis aligned with the inclusive growth agenda of ADBs Strategy 2020 as well as its streamlined business processes and increased emphasis on results, and changes in policies and staff guidelines related to gender, participation, social safeguards, other social risks, and public communications. It does not introduce any new policies or procedural requirements. The five sections in the handbook are organized according to ADBs operational cycle and business practices. Appendixes provide selected tools, links to other handbooks, and guidelines on social development topics.

The handbook was a product of collaboration among staff from across ADB, including inputs from a peer review team, whose support is gratefully acknowledged. This endeavor was initiated by the Poverty Reduction, Gender and Social Development Division of the Regional and Sustainable Development Department led by Sri Wening Handayani, and Eugenia McGill (staff consultant), supervised by Bart W. des and supported by Michelle Domingo-Palacpac, Princess Lubag, and Myla Sandoval. Valuable comments and suggestions were received from the peer review team comprised by staff from across ADBs regional departments, the Private Sector Operations Department, and the Regional and Sustainable Development Department including Linda Adams, Armin Bauer, Shanny Campbell, Scott Ferguson, Yukiko Ito, Sunhwa Lee, Christopher Morris, Joyce Munsayac, Bui Ngoc Quang, Jeremy Stickings, Susann Roth, Indira Simbolon, Sonomi Tanaka, Francesco Tornieri, and Wendy Walker.
