Mobility as a Driver for Economic Development: Tanzania Case Study
| |
| As economic growth and industrialization accelerate and livelihoods and incomes improve, so the demand for mobility increases. However, in much of the developing world, demand for mobility solutions to drive economic growth continues to outpace supply, while paradoxically the growing number of vehicles and other mobility solutions has not been matched by improved infrastructure. Business is stepping up efforts to understand and address the sustainable mobility issues being faced by developing economies. |

5.2 Is it factor accumulation or total factor productivity that drives growth in Africa?: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| To investigate the link between growth and diversification, it was important to
first quantify the contribution of TFP to economic growth. This section analyses
the sources of growth for African countries using the standard growth accounting
method, making it possible to disaggregate the shares of growth contributed by TFP,
capital and labour. Growth in output is the sum of the growth in capital, labour
and TFP. Capital accumulation is an essential element in the growth process, as it
enlarges the economy’s capacity to produce. Increases in labour or labour force have
traditionally been considered a positive factor in stimulating economic growth. |

Market access: Provisions of Agreement on Agriculture
| |
| An often-mentioned problem of developing countries’ agricultural export has been the lack
of access to developed countries' markets, due to the institution of a myriad of import
controls and other restrictions. This has largely undermined the growth prospects of
developing countries whose development strategy relied on agricultural exports. |

Domestic farm support programs in developed countries: Provisions of Agreement on Agriculture
| |
| A basic source of distortion in the world market for agricultural commodities and primary
products has been the differential level of domestic support that developed and developing
countries can give to the production of these commodities. This has tended to reduce the
price competitiveness of developing countries. |

Introduction: HUMAN CAPITAL FORMATION AND FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
| |
| Human resource development (HRD) and foreign direct investment (FDI) are
among the key drivers of growth in developed and developing countries. |

HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT AND ATTRACTING INWARD FDI
| |
| One of the characteristics of rich industrial economies is the availability of a
workforce with a high level of human capital. Whether human capital has been the key
driver of economic prosperity or vice-versa is still a matter of debate. Nevertheless, long
time series trends in educational attainment and economic growth during the last century
indicate that HRD and economic prosperity went hand in hand10. Some developing
countries followed similar trends in human capital and economic growth. What was
distinctive about these developing countries is that they appeared to have realised large
economic benefits in attracting MNEs into host economies, and have thus mobilised
inward FDI to attain rapid economic growth. |
