DFID & the Private Sector: Working with the private sector to eliminate poverty
1 December 2005
The private sector is a key player in development, and an active partner in
many of DFID's approaches to growth and poverty reduction. The new DFID
publication "DFID & the Private Sector: Working with the private sector
to eliminate poverty"
(393
kb) has just been published. This booklet demonstrates
the variety of our work in areas such as infrastructure, investment climate
reform, international trade, and increasing the access of the poor to business,
financial, and social services.
"DFID & the Private Sector" has been jointly produced by the International Financial Institutions Department (IFID) and Policy Division's (PD's) Growth & Investment Group. Many staff around DFID have provided examples and text, with the report being overseen by an editorial advisory group, and put together by a lead consultant.
The publication is designed primarily for information to let our many partners know what DFID is contributing to private sector development. We would now be grateful for your assistance in distribution and dissemination of the booklet. For further information, please contact Richard Boulter.
