Assessment of PRS design and objectives
- The report assesses the design, implementation, and effectiveness of Liberia’s first Poverty Reduction Strategy (PRS).
- The PRS described the objectives for each pillar and sector, often with numerical projections, and these were essentially the intended outcomes.
Implementation findings and evidence
- The Economic Corridors study and anecdotal evidence suggest that the initial emphasis on providing inputs to stimulate production brought farmers up against constraints in:
- storage
- transport
- marketing
- These constraints led farmers to pull back on production after they encountered difficulty in selling their produce.
