Kingdom of Morocco Systematic Country Diagnostic : Governing Towards Efficiency, Equity, Education and Endurance
World Bank Group
(2018-06)
Over the last 15 years, thanks to pro-poor growth performance, investment in education, health and other social services, and the deployment of social safety nets, Morocco has succeeded in eliminating extreme poverty, reducing poverty and to a lesser degree sharing prosperity. Yet, to make further poverty reduction progress, grow the middle class and meet the economic, social and societal aspirations of Moroccan youth, women and other vulnerable segments of society, Morocco needs to pursue a higher and more sustainable and inclusive pattern of economic growth that promotes job creation. The current growth model, however, shows signs of weaknesses as it is confronted with a series of sustainability issues (from economic to financial, territorial, environmental or social) that risk, with varying degrees of intensity, impeding progress toward emergence. Growth in the past two decades has been mainly based on public capital accumulation that will be difficult to maintain without higher total factor productivity gains in the future. The Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) identifies the ...

Comoros Poverty Assessment
World Bank
(2017-04)
The Poverty Assessment for Comoros aims to respond to this need and presents the first analysis using the new household survey data from 2014. The present report draws on the availability of the EESIC 2014 to provide a robust diagnostic of poverty and inequality in Comoros and to bring new evidence to better inform policies aimed at poverty alleviation and equity. The analysis is complemented with data from various sources, including the previous household survey EIM 2004 and the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) for 2012. Through a pro-active consultation and dissemination approach, the empirical insights generated by this report are expected to turn into key findings and recommendations for local public policy debates. The first chapter of the report will provide an overview on the country’s context, assessing the macroeconomic performance and governance environment. The remaining ...

Realizing the Full Potential of Social Safety Nets in Africa
Beegle, Kathleen; Coudouel, Aline; Monsalve, Emma
(2018-07-17)
Poverty has been declining in Sub-Saharan Africa, but millions are still poor or vulnerable. To address this ongoing and complex problem, all countries in the region have now deployed social safety net programs as part of their core development plans. The number of programs has skyrocketed since the mid-2000s, although many interventions are still modest in size. This notable shift in social policy reflects an embrace of the role that social safety nets can play in the fight against poverty and vulnerability, and more generally in building human capital and spurring economic growth. Realizing the Full Potential of Social Safety Nets in Africa provides evidence that positive impacts on equity, resilience, and opportunity are growing, and it is clear that these programs can be good investments. For the potential of social safety nets to be realized, however, they need to expand with smart technical and design choices. Beyond technical considerations, and at least as important, this book argues that a series of decisive shifts needs to occur in three critical spheres: political, institu ...
