Why are we doing this?
We at DEV are seeking policy responses to development problems throughout the developing world.
The BSEC-CA region presents numerous examples and challenges , and complements our analysis of the developing and emerging world.
The Black Sea and Central Asian Economic Outlook 2008 aims to systematically monitor and assess economic performance and underlying policies in the Black Sea and Central Asian regions, so as to facilitate information sharing and evidence-based policy dialogue at the national and regional levels.
The Outlook provides cross-country comparative analysis of macroeconomic developments and of the countries’ involvement in the global economy. Each year the Outlook includes analysis of a thematic, cross-cutting policy issue in order to identify major hindrances to and to highlight successful cases of policy reforms. The theme of the 2008 Outlook is promoting work and well-being; selected on the basis of its strategic importance to the regions, and like all OECD Development Centre regional Outlook publications, the themes are on topics where the OECD can share its expertise.
