What is a sector?

Baume and Tolbert (1985)

a sector is a matter of aggregation and it can in principle be fixed at

any intermediate point between the individual project and the national

investment program. Thus, the definition of a sector is largely a matter ofconv ent ion and conv enience.

A sector comprises, the producing or operating units in the

economy that have a common function or output.

shared or common contributions to the economy and the

daily quality of life

How do we measure

sector impacts?

impact indicators

quantitative and qualitative aspects at given

times and places

5 to 10 indicators

Health Sector

infant mortality

rate

The infant mortality rate(IMR) is the number of deathsof infants under one year old per

1,000 live births

life expectancy Life expectancyat age xis the mean number of years that would be lived by a group ofindividuals of age xexposed until death to specific mortality conditions

population growth population growth rate refers to the change in population over a unit time period, oftenexpressed as a percentage of the number of individuals in the population at the beginning of

that period

child nutrition

morbidity

How do we measure sector impacts?

Transport Sector

Vehicle usage/density

journey times

safety

transport share of GDP

Education Sector

enrollment rates

literacy

workforce education level

absorption rates

Managing sector impacts

identifying critical impacts important to society and

economy

specifying monitorable indicators for these impacts

assessing performance against these indicators so

problems can be identified and corrected and

improvements addressed

changing variables within our control that influence

impacts


17/32

Verifiable Performance Indicators

In defining performance objectives, we specify

What we want to achieve

How we will recognize success evidence of the level of sector performance in terms of

a. quantityhow much

b. qualityhow well

c. timeby whend. location/ area

basis of monitoring and evaluating the sector

Using benchmarks to

monitor sector performance

Benchmarksbasis for comparison

performance

comparison criteria


25/32

What information do we get from

benchmarking?

What are the trends in this sector?

How does current performance compare with the trend?

What is the potentialof this sector?

Sector Policy and Institutional

Framework

Policy and Legal Framework

creates an environment that influences availability of

inputs, efficient delivery of outputs and the

significance of the expected impact

Institutional Framework and Capacity

capacity of institutions (public, private, community

based) to support and promote the development,progress, and social well-being of the people

Are inst i tut ions able to use inputs eff ic ient ly and

effectively? A re ou tputs del ivered based on

desired qual i ty and quant i ty?
