Perfect for you if...

  • You work in development policy or international finance and need a clear framework for understanding why good projects go wrong.
  • You're frustrated by how development organisations repeat the same mistakes across different countries and sectors.
  • You advise governments on which development programmes actually deliver results rather than just ticking boxes.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want a detailed how-to manual for running a specific development project from start to finish.
  • You're looking for country case studies or data-heavy analysis of individual bank operations.
  • You prefer academic theory over practical lessons about what development practitioners are actually missing.

About this book

Development effectiveness depends on the strength of individual project links within a broader chain. When projects fail to achieve their objectives, the overall development program's effectiveness suffers. Conversely, when links are strong and well-connected, results improve across sectors, countries, and regions. Multilateral banks play a crucial role in informing the impact of development operations and supporting policymakers in their decisions. However, certain critical links in the development process are systematically overlooked. Immediate pressures often take priority over addressing persistent problems, at significant cost to society. Development practitioners frequently neglect proven policies and strong links in the chain due to myopia, complexity, tradition, or special interests. This book is designed to help policymakers and practitioners identify and focus on the links that measure progress, apply lessons learned, and contribute to lasting results.
