RG-T2732 : Promoting knowledge and capacity building through the Regional Policy Dialogue

This operation will finance the activities of the Regional Policy Dialogue (RPD) in 2016. In 2000, the Bank's Board of Executive Directors approved the creation of the RPD (GN-2096-2). The general objective of the RPD is to promote a high-level policy dialogue between Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries and Bank officials, in order to identify innovative practices, strengthen institutional capacity, share experiences both from the region and from the rest of the world, and improve the quality of reform strategies. At the same time, the RPD provides the opportunity for the Bank to receive direct feedback about countries' public policy priorities, which subsequently informs Bank's future operational program.
