Book excerpt: The Comprehensive Development Framework (CDF), a World Bank aid policy approach, has become an important influence on the global development agenda since its launch in 1999. It is based on four principles: a long-term holistic development framework; results orientation; country ownership; and country led-partnership. This report contains findings from five case study evaluations of CDF pilot implementation in Bolivia, Ghana, Romania, Uganda and Vietnam, and from a non-CDF pilot study in Burkina Faso chosen as a control. A World Bank synthesis evaluation report on the CDF is also available (ISBN 0821356437).
