It reviews low and volatile economic performance, constrained private-sector job creation, and the channels of resilience at community and institutional levels. The report also outlines macroeconomic, fiscal, infrastructure, and governance constraints, then identifies priority sectors—especially agriculture—to enable higher and more inclusive growth through reforms and targeted investments.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nIntroduction .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... i  \nAbbreviations ...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... ii  \nExecutive Summary ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ iv  \n1.
