    América Latina y el Caribe

    In 2013 the World Bank set itself two
    ambitious goals: to end extreme poverty within a generation
    and to boost the prosperity of the bottom 40 percent of the
    population worldwide. In Latin America, the significance of
    both goals cannot be overstated. Indigenous people account
    for about 8 percent of the population, but represent 14
    percent of the poor and over 17 percent of all Latin
    Americans living on less than United States (U.S.) $2.50 a

    América Latina y el Caribe

    Over the last decade, the countries of
    the Latin America and the Caribbean region experienced a
    deep economic and social transformation which lifted
    millions out of poverty and swelled the ranks of the middle
    class. Strong economic growth driven by both domestic
    reforms and a favorable global economic environment, was
    responsible for this progress. Complementary social
    programs, made possible by growing fiscal space, helped

    Infrastructure services are significant
    determinants of economic development, social welfare, trade,
    and public health. As such, they typically feature strongly
    in national development plans. While governments may receive
    many infrastructure project proposals, however, resources
    are often insufficient to finance the full set of proposals
    in the short term. Leading up to 2020, an estimated US$836
    billion - 1 trillion will be required each year to meet

    Brasil

    As part of a long-term partnership
    between the World Bank and Brazil, the Federal Government of
    Brazil sought the World Bank’s assistance to review road
    safety management capacity in Brazil, building both on past
    experiences in the country and international best practices.
    This National Road Safety Management Capacity Review,
    therefore, was prepared by the World Bank, with the support
    of the Global Road Safety Facility (GRSF). The primary

    Uruguay

    Uruguay is a country of about 3.3
    million people, which has consistently given high priority
    to achieving broadly-shared economic growth and a
    sustainable reduction in poverty. A strong and progressive
    social compact has been a defining feature of Uruguayan
    society and politics, with consistent emphasis placed on
    protecting vulnerable groups, assuring worker dignity and
    promoting equitable growth. This compact, combined with

    Colombia

    The WBG’s Colombia Systematic Country
    Diagnostic (SCD) analyzed key constraints and opportunities
    that will impact Colombia’s development in the context of
    three defining country characteristics. They include uneven
    territorial development, a long standing armed conflict and
    a growth process led by extractive industries. The Colombia
    Country Partnership Framework (CPF) proposes to address
    these complex development challenges with a flexible,

    Latin America and the Caribbean (LCR)
    will be center stage in the global development debate as
    leaders from around the world convene in Lima, Peru for the
    annual meetings of the World Bank Group and International
    Monetary Fund. Critical progress in poverty reduction has
    been made in the region over the last decade. The region’s
    bottom 40 percent of the population saw growth eclipsing
    that seen by the group in every other region in the world.

    Honduras

    Honduras’ recent economic performance
    has been positive, especially taking into account the global
    economic context. Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth
    accelerated from 2.8 percent in 2013 to 3.1 percent in 2014
    and 3.6 percent in the first half of 2015. Growth has been
    supported by improved terms of trade, higher remittance
    inflows and export demand driven by the on-going recovery of
    the United States (US), and improved investor confidence.

    The main objective of this Economic and Sector Work (ESW) is to identify opportunities for stronger linkages between domestic agricultural supply chains and the tourism sector in the OECS, and to outline priority interventions with potential to strengthen these linkages. Since this topic has been analyzed in a number of studies, the approach for this ESW is not to conduct yet another comprehensive study.
