This chapter focuses on experience with comprehensive assessments and planning exercises in the public and private sectors, and their implications for the implementation of the Comprehensive Development Framework and the Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers. Facilitating client learning is vital for client ownership and sustainable policy change. World Bank has devoted significant resources to its tools and frameworks, and has imposed them on clients and partners. With emphasis on its role as a knowledge bank, the World Bank will need to adopt a learning mode for its role in knowledge services for development.
