| Summary |
In this book the chapters were premised on the existence of data and information in ongoing and completed research on inclusive growth and development which have not been professionally processed to be used for sharing and policy dialogue. It can be concluded that this approach has been successful but with some caveats. That there is knowledge on the issue was supported by a response from researchers of all levels and ranks. Editorial work had to select among those that are appearing in this volume. Research was from various countries and regions and no one can truly get a general idea of evidence of challenges and opportunities for inclusive growth and development in the region. |
