It reviews gaps in education access, enrollment, and labor market outcomes, then assesses the role of social programs, including CCT education impacts and employment or earnings effects. It also considers job training impacts on employment and wages, ending with conclusions and policy implications, supported by figures on human capital, informality, and program coverage.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nFast Tracking poverty reduction and prosperity for all Dominican Republic Poverty Assessment 2023  \nBackground Note on Poverty and Social Protection  \nCentral America and the Dominican Republic Country Management Unit Latin America and the Caribbean Region  \n© [2023] International Bank for Reconstruction and Development / The World Bank  \n1818 H Street NW Washington DC 20433 Telephone: 202-473-1000  \n[Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis work is a product of the staff of The World Bank with external contributions.
