dc.descriptionA critical challenge for all policymakers wrestling with economic development and poverty reduction in Africa—as well as everywhere else in the world—is how to assess which programs and policies actually work. A corollary to this challenge is to identify, among the programs that do work, those that provide the best value for money. Methodological challenges include the development of adequate quantitative economic modelling tools for a comprehensive growth poverty analysis in an economywide framework. An even greater challenge, however, is for the knowledge and insights generated from economic modeling to find their way into the decision making process. In this context, the present volume contains a selection of tools and methodologies that can help to tackle the complexities of the analysis of policy processes and outcomes under the implementation of the CAADP agenda. The contributions go beyond the state-of-the-art methods and tools applied for quantitative policy impact analyses, as they also examine the process behind the choice of policies and the factors that determine the likelihood of their adoption and implementation.
