Description: "This report presents the findings of an evaluation of the functioning of the LDC Infrastructure Fund during its first six years of operations (2002-2007). The evaluation summarizes the development of the Fund and assesses the ways in which projects that were (partly) financed by the LDC Infrastructure Fund contributed to economic, social and environmental development as well as the effectiveness of the Fund in promoting these projects. The evaluation includes an analysis of twelve case studies in Bangladesh, Tanzania, Mozambique, Sudan, Benin and Togo. Nine case studies were analysed by SEOR B.V. (Socio Economic Research, Erasmus University, Rotterdam); the others (for Sudan, Benin and Togo) by IOB"--Pref.
