| Description: | Rather than evaluating the performance of past policies, the present book takes a more forward looking approach. It assesses what feasible financing strategies policymakers in the region would be advised to follow in pursuance of the United Nations’ millennium development goals (MDGs) and their achievement in 2015. The studies relate to similar concerns as those of the previous projects, though: how to make macroeconomic policies more conducive to support sustained growth and reduce the still widespread poverty and inequality in the region. In addition, the present study also addresses the question how such policies could ensure sufficient levels of public spending in support of improvements in human development in terms of ensuring that all children complete at least primary education, that child and maternal mortality rates are brought down substantially and that all of the region’s population has adequate access to basic sanitation. |
