Urban and Project Specialists, researchers, and policy makers require paradigms, guidelines, checklists, and tool kits to establish the rationale, objectives, design components, implementation arrangements, costs and financing, and policy conditions of projects, programs, and various other hybrid lending modalities.
Major dimensions include economic and financial analysis of urban systems and projects, project costing, policy analysis, and poverty and social development analysis.
Some resources for these areas can be found in various ADB documents:
