The African Development Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to Regional Member Countries (RMCs). In support of its mission—to promote sustainable economic development and social progress of RMCs—the Bank conducts and publishes a wide range of research and knowledge on development issues relating to Africa. In so doing, tons of knowledge and analytical works are published by the Bank annually to enhance better understanding of the contexts and challenges, as well as proffer tailored policy options for structural transformation, sustained growth, and inclusive development in RMCs. Some of the knowledge works are continental wide, while others are country-specific, with the converging aim of providing the requisite analytics for financing projects, invaluable policy dialogue and capacity building.
The Bank’s knowledge and research activities cut across various complexes of the institution. Hence, the compilation of this compendium, into a publication catalogue, is a Bank-wide effort, espousing the “One-Bank” approach. Like the previous editions, the 2022 African Development Bank Group’s Publications Catalogue provides one-stop digital access to key publications of the Bank. Major Bank publications are organized in this Catalogue in broad categories that include flagships, knowledge events, evaluation reports and statistical resources, and other thematic reports. Electronic access through online web links and QR codes are provided to ease access to the publications.
