AB  - The infoguide highlights the key issues in Driving Impact: Foundations of Development Effectiveness Reforms at the IDB, a paper that presents the theoretical and empirical foundations of the IDB's Impact Orientation Reform, one of the 17 reforms outlined in IDBStrategy. The paper broadly summarizes recent performance management innovations that set the stage for the Impact Orientation Reform. It then identifies challenges the IDB faced under previous development effectiveness initiatives. Third, it discusses the theoretical and empirical underpinnings of the three main elements of the Impact Orientation Reform: (i) a culture of effectiveness, (ii) targeting final results through evidence-based decisions and learning, and (iii) a commitment to improving client effectiveness. Finally, it presents potential challenges that could arise when implementing this reform.
