Business+ - Inclusive Business: A New, Sustainable and Innovative Private Sector by United Nations Development Programme Istanbul International Center for Private Sector in Development (UNDP IICPSD) Pdf

Although the number of inclusive businesses has risen substantially over the past decade, they are still far from the desired level. Furthermore, most of the existing inclusive businesses are not elaborated to their full potential. To discover why, the IICPSD has posed two main questions: First, what do successful initiatives that reach their full potential in terms of scale and impact have in common? Second, what is the private sector’s current level of knowledge, engagement and awareness of inclusive business? This report addresses these questions and presents findings from four stages of research. A comprehensive literature review and an analysis of 150 successful inclusive business cases around the world were conducted to answer the first research question. In-depth interviews with top-executives from ten businesses and a survey of 680 companies in Turkey was also carried out to tackle the second concern.

G20 Inclusive Business Framework by G20 Development Working Group Pdf

In keeping with the Turkish Presidency’s focus on inclusiveness, the G20 has strengthened its work on shared prosperity within and beyond G20 Members, as well as its engagement with low income developing countries, partners in civil society and the private sector. The G20 is a very important forum in bringing traditional donor countries and emerging and South-South development partners together, enabling its members to explore new ways to co-operate. At the G20 Antalya Summit in November 2015, the Leaders of the G20 formally endorsed the G20 Leaders’ Call on Inclusive Business, the G20 Inclusive Business Framework and called for the establishment of the G20 Global Platform on Inclusive Business. The new G20 Inclusive Business Framework, designed with the support of UNDP and the World Bank, opens up new opportunities for low-income people and communities to participate in markets. The framework will also serve as tool for the G20 engagement in the effective implementation of the SDGs. Objective The Framework defines inclusive business, sets out recommendations to enable inclusive business and presents policy options for G20 and non-G20 governments, companies, and international financial institutions to promote and support inclusive business as a means to end poverty.

Poverty in the Philippines by Asian Development Bank Pdf

Against the backdrop of the global financial crisis and rising food, fuel, and commodity prices, addressing poverty and inequality in the Philippines remains a challenge. The proportion of households living below the official poverty line has declined slowly and unevenly in the past four decades, and poverty reduction has been much slower than in neighboring countries such as the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Viet Nam. Economic growth has gone through boom and bust cycles, and recent episodes of moderate economic expansion have had limited impact on the poor. Great inequality across income brackets, regions, and sectors, as well as unmanaged population growth, are considered some of the key factors constraining poverty reduction efforts. This publication analyzes the causes of poverty and recommends ways to accelerate poverty reduction and achieve more inclusive growth. it also provides an overview of current government responses, strategies, and achievements in the fight against poverty and identifies and prioritizes future needs and interventions. The analysis is based on current literature and the latest available data, including the 2006 Family Income and Expenditure Survey.

Mid-term evaluation of the FAO-EU FLEGT Programme, phase III by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Pdf

The FAO-EU FLEGT Programme supports government agencies, non-governmental organizations and private sector associations to work together in support of legal and trade reforms in timber producing countries with the aim of increasing legal trade in timber. The Programme, which started in 2008, is currently half way through its third phase of funding and covers 24 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. An evaluation of the third phase shows that despite significant shifts in timber markets and flows, the Programme remains highly relevant to national and regional forest governance objectives, national trade priorities and market demands. It is also well aligned to donor goals and objectives, particularly the EU-FLEGT Action Plan, as well as FAO Strategic Objectives. The Programme has achieved important results at country level including improved voice of non-state actors; increased capacity and skills; policy, legal and regulatory reforms; transparency and disclosure and improvements in timber legality.
