Trade-Development-Poverty Linkages: Reflections from Selected Asian and Sub-Saharan African Countries – Volume II – Sector Case Studies
Evidence from the field

Following up on the country case studies published in the first volume, the sectoral case studies of this volume provide an insight into the effects produced by trade liberalisation in select sectors in project countries. The sectoral studies conducted in the 13 TDP countries identify the factors that need to accompany trade openness for it to become an engine of economic development and poverty alleviation. The findings reflect the need for fair and balanced rules in the multilateral trading system for ensuring sustainable and inclusive development in the countries of the South. [Report]
