The objective of IFC PEP-MENA’s Doing Business Better Program is to engage policy makers and other stakeholders— especially the private sector and donors—in open discussions about specific private sector constraints and to motivate them to adopt concrete reform initiatives, including the possibility of direct advisory services by IFC PEP-MENA or other parts of the World Bank Group.
These open discussions typically are in the form of conferences and workshops, where analytical findings are discussed with all the parties involved, including strong participation from the private sector and civil society.
The Doing Business Better Program has been active in Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Morocco.
