Toward Sustainable and Equitable Development: Sector Strategies for Latin America and the Caribbean.
By SDS (12/03, En, Es)
After a decade of significant reforms and efforts to promote development, the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean find themselves at the crossroads. In spite of low economic growth, an unfavorable international situation, unyielding levels of social inequality and growing expectations on the part of their citizens, the countries of the region remain committed to upholding macroeconomic equilibrium, mobilizing private capital, searching for new export markets, improving the delivery of their public services, reducing poverty and pushing ahead with social reform. The Inter-American Development Bank seeks to continue supporting countries in these efforts and to play a substantive role based on its specialized knowledge of the region and its experience in the area of economic and social development. The array of new strategies presented in this volume represents a recent undertaking by the Bank to provide an analytical framework as well as a signal of the institution?s priorities in light of the needs of the region.
