Natural gas : private sector participation and market development by Oil Gas(
)
3 editions published in 1999 in English and held by 1,079 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"With abundant underdeveloped reserves of natural gas, this resource has the potential to play a large role in meeting the world's growing energy demand." Natural gas competes with other resources for use in power generation. In addition, its other uses have increased dramatically. Since it offers substantial environmental advantages over other hydrocarbon fuels, governments and investors are considering natural gas. This volume examines a range of issues relating to gas sector reform and gas market development. It also examines the reform experience in an array of countries. The last section reviews some of the commercial issues faced in expanding the role of gas, such as, the challenges of developing and financing cross-border gas pipeline trade and the difficulties of attracting investors to projects involving countries with high credit and currency risks

13 editions published in 1997 in English and held by 949 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In 1996 the World Bank Operations Evaluation Department completed an internal review of 50 large dams funded by the World Bank.

The workshop broke new ground by bringing together representatives from governments, the private sector, international financial institutions and civil society organizations to address three issues: critical advances needed in knowledge and practice, methodologies and approaches required to achieve these advances, and proposals for a follow-up process involving all stakeholders

Shared prosperity and poverty eradication in Latin America and the Caribbean by
Louise Cord(
)
3 editions published in 2015 in English and held by 639 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Over the last decade Latin America and the Caribbean region has achieved important progress towards the World Bank Group's goals of eradicating extreme poverty and boosting income growth of the bottom 40 percent, propelled by remarkable economic growth and falling income inequality. Despite this impressive performance, social progress has not been uniform over this period, and certain countries, subregions and even socioeconomic groups participated less in the growth process. As of today, more than 75 million people still live in extreme poverty in the region (using $2.50/day/capita), half of them in Brazil and Mexico, and extreme poverty rates top 40 percent in Guatemala and reach nearly 60 percent in Haiti. This means that extreme poverty is still an important issue in both low- and middle-income countries in the region. As growth wanes and progress in reducing the still high levels of inequality in the region slows, it will be more important than ever for governments to focus policies on inclusive growth. The book includes an overview that highlights progress towards the goals of poverty eradication and shared prosperity between 2003 and 2012, unpacks recent gains at the household level using an income-based asset model, and examines some of the policy levers used to affect social outcomes in the region. It draws on 13 country studies, eight of which are featured in this volume: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, El Salvador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay. The other case studies include: Bolivia, Chile, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and Honduras, which will be included in the web version of the book.--

The economic impact of the 2014 ebola epidemic : short- and medium-term estimates for West Africa by
David Evans(
)
3 editions published in 2014 in English and held by 624 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Beyond its terrible toll in human lives and suffering, the ebola epidemic has inflicted a measurable economic impact on West Africa in terms of forgone output, higher fiscal deficits, rising prices, lower real household incomes, and greater poverty. This impact results partly from the health-care costs and forgone productivity associated with being infected, but it is driven principally by the efforts of the uninfected population to avoid exposure ('aversion behaviour'). Contents: 1. Introduction: Overview; Channels of Impact; Structure of the Report. 2. Short-Term effects and fiscal impacts: Introduction; Liberia; Sierra Leone; Guinea; Neighboring economies; Conclusion. 3. Medium-term impacts: Methods of estimation; Scenarios of the ebola epidemic; Estimates of the impact of ebola; Conclusion. 4. Concluding remarks: Containing the epedemic; fiscal support; restoring investor confidence; Strengthening the surveillance, detection, and treatment capacity of African health systems. Appendices
