| Summary: | The sulawesi development diagnostic aims
to examine the island’s growth drivers and constraints,
analyze why growth is not inclusive and what segment of the
population is lagging. This report looks into the pace and
pattern of growth and examines benefits different segments
of the population derived from sulawesi’s economic growth,
for example, poor versus non‐poor. The report also analyzes
why growth has not been unconvincingly inclusive,
particularly in terms of equality of opportunity, poverty
reduction and employment creation. The analysis also
identifies constraints to sustained and inclusive
development such as education and health outcomes. The
analysis will focus on the agriculture, extractive
industries and infrastructure in its examination of drivers
and constraints of growth. This report matches the
development challenges identified with a discussion of the
current policies and propose potential solutions for
sulawesi. The research in this report is based on with local
stakeholders interviews and analysing an extensive set of
databases and secondary materials. The report is organized
into ten chapters broken into two parts. Following the
introductory chapter, Part one of this report comprises of
three chapters that analyze the challenges for achieving
inclusive growth in Sulawesi. Chapter 2 provides an overview
of Sulawesi’ growth pattern and growth drivers; Chapter 3
presents analysis showing that despite reduction in poverty
inequality has increased; Chapter 4 identifies why growth
has not been more inclusive and what challenges Sulawesi
faces. Part two of the report comprising of Chapter 5 to 9
discusses each challenge in more detail and proposes policy
measures for each challenge. Chapter 5 analyzes the first
challenge of how to make agricultural sector more productive
in order to increase income for labor participants in the
sector. This chapter analyzes the agriculture sector through
the lens of Sulawesi’s three main commodities: rice, cocoa,
and maize. Chapter 6 analyzes the challenge of developing
the rural nonfarm sector so that it can generate alternative
and higher income employment for the rural poor. Chapter 7
discusses why Sulawesi’s extractive industry is not
inclusive and offers ideas for improvement so that more
communities benefit from its growth. Chapter 8 analyzes why
health and education outcomes are low in Sulawesi and
identifies the main constraints for effective service
delivery, particularly for the vulnerable and marginalised
population. Chapter 9 assesses Sulawesi’s infrastructure
challenges and how increased access to public infrastructure
is crucial for ensuring Sulawesi achieves sustained economic
growth. Chapter 10 will conclude with a conclusion of the
key priorities for Sulawesi and a discussion on the future
prospects of the region. |
