Every five years the Thai government and the World Bank Group agree on a new CPF, which outlines their joint program for developing the country through poverty reduction and shared prosperity.
The CPF and the documents it is based on are formulated through a consultation process with a wide range of stakeholders in the country. These stakeholders include:
- Government agencies from across the country
- Academia and think tanks
- Development partners
- Civil society
- Private sector
- Private citizens
The objective of these consultations is to seek views on the key development challenges facing Thailand, and the areas where the World Bank should concentrate its support so that it has the greatest possible impact in promoting inclusion, reducing poverty, and sharing prosperity on a livable planet.
