The COVID-19 crisis highlights the role of the International Development Association (IDA) in enabling a green, resilient, and inclusive recovery by addressing damage to growth, jobs, and incomes while tackling constraints that unlock private-sector-led investment, employment, and growth. Experience under IDA19 shows transformation as a journey—strengthening foundations for private investment and expanding productivity channels across sectors, firms, and regions to improve outcomes at scale.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nIDA20 SPECIAL THEME:  \nJOBS AND ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION  \nEnabling Better Jobs for More People Through a Green, Resilient  \nand Inclusive Recovery  \nACRONYMS AND ABBREVIATIONS  \nFiscal Year (FY) = July 1 to June 30 All dollar amounts are US dollars  \nAfCFTA  \nBPS  \nCOVID-19  \nCP  \nCPF  \nCPIA  \nCPSD  \nD4P  \nDPO  \nFCS  \nFCV  \nFSAP  \nGRID  \nGVCs  \nICT  \nAfrica Continental Free Trade Area  \nBusiness Pulse Survey Coronavirus Disease 2019 Country Platforms  \nCountry Partnership Framework Country Policy and Institutional Assessment  \nCountry Private Sector Diagnostic  \nData for Policy  \nDevelopment Policy Operation Fragile and Conflict-affected Situations  \nFragile, Conflict and Violence Financial Sector Assessment Program  \nGreen, Inclusive and Resilient  \nDevelopment  \nGlobal Value Chains Information and Communications Technology  \nIDA  \nIFC  \nILO  \nIMF  \nJET  \nLIC  \nMIGA  \nMSME  \nPSW  \nREC  \nSCD  \nSDFP  \nSME  \nSOE  \nWBG  \nInternational Development Association  \nInternational Finance  \nCorporation International Labour Organization  \nInternational Monetary Fund Jobs and Economic Transformation  \nLow Income Country Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency  \nMicro, small and medium-sized enterprise  \nPrivate Sector Window Regional Economic Community Systematic Country Diagnostic Sustainable Development Finance Policy  \nSmall and medium-sized enterprise  \nState-owned enterprise World Bank Group  \nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nEXECUTIVE SUMMARY ....................................................................................................... i  \nI.
