Learning Curves: Urban Sector Strategy and Operations
Asian Development Bank | January 2007
Abstract
Does urbanization in Asia need special attention by ADB? How much would need to be invested in urban development in Asia? What is the nature of ADBʹs urban sector strategy, the context of its issuance in 1999, and what affected it afterward? Are the ambitions of the ADBʹs urban sector strategy being achieved? How does ADBʹs urban sector strategy rate in terms of relevance and efficiency, and how do urban sector operations rate in terms of their effectiveness and sustainability? What are clientsʹ perceptions of ADBʹs value‐added in the urban sector and transaction costs? What could be suggestions for a revised urban sector strategy, emerging from an evaluation of past and current operations?
