The World Bank Group has started the process of preparing its new Country Partnership Framework (CPF) with Kosovo for the period 2023-2027.
The CPF lays out the main development objectives which the World Bank Group aims to help the country achieve and it proposes a selective and flexible program of interventions for this purpose. The objectives are selected to reflect the Government’s priorities and the main development constraints of the country, based on analytical foundations discussed in the WBG Systematic Country Diagnostics (SCD).
The preparation process of the CPF involves consultations with different stakeholders, including the government, international financial institutions, civil society, and private sector representatives, to exchange views on the country’s development opportunities and how the World Bank Group can help address them.
The consultation process for the CPF includes both face-to-face and virtual/online meetings on country’s development priorities and challenges. The objective is to seek broader feedback and comments from all interested parties. We expect to hear views from various groups and individuals to help finalize the CPF.
Please send your comments, questions, or suggestions to the World Bank office in Kosovo at gabdullahu@worldbank.org by December 15, 2022. You can find here a Power Point presentation (and its local language translations) summarizing the proposed concept for the new CPF.
