    Cameroon

    The Government of Cameroon has declared
    poverty reduction through strong and sustainable economic
    growth the central objective of its socioeconomic policy.
    This paper uses available household survey data to assess
    the performance of the economy with respect to this
    objective over the period 1996-2007. The authors use
    counterfactual decompositions based on both the Shapley
    method and the generalized Oaxaca-Blinder framework to

    Cameroon

    This paper presents counterfactual
    decompositions based on both the Shapley method and a
    generalization of the Oaxaca-Blinder approach to identify
    proximate factors that might explain differences in the
    distribution of economic welfare in Cameroon in 1996-2007.
    In particular, the analysis uses re-centered influence
    function regressions to link the growth incidence curve for
    2001-2007 to household characteristics and account for

    Angola

    Despite remarkable economic growth in
    the past decade, undernutrition remains a serious public
    health problem in Angola. High rates of child stunting and
    micronutrient deficiencies are contributing to an under-five
    mortality rate of 161 deaths per 1,000 live births, limiting
    the growth and development of children, hindering
    productivity, and preventing the country from reaching
    millennium development goals one and four. In response to

    Angola

    The primary goal of this Diagnostic Trade Integration Study (DTIS) is to provide a plan for reactivating Angola's productive sectors that reduces the country's reliance on imports while enabling the restoration of export capacity in the medium to long term. Executing such a plan will involve investing in the rehabilitation of infrastructure destroyed by war and making and adjusting policies that affect the institutional underpinnings of a market economy, as well as incentives for exporting and importing.

    Angola

    Successive armed conflicts, which lasted
    almost three decades after independence, have devastated
    Angola and its economy. However, since the peace accord of
    April 2002, Angolans have begun a transition toward national
    reconciliation and lasting peace. For the Government of
    Angola (GoA), one of the main challenges ahead is to
    reconstruct the economy and reunite society after a war that
    has left its most visible marks on the millions of displaced

    The implementation of effective Disarmament, Demobilisation and Reintegration (DDR) programmes in countries emerging from violent conflict are essential for building and maintaining peace and security. In many instances the disarmament and demobilisation of former combatants was achieved, but reintegration remained a challenge, due to the long-term focus and the substantial resources that are required for such a process to be successful.
