IsDB Sectors in Brief Science, Technology and Innovation (STI)
Science, technology and innovation (STI) is recognized as one of the leading drivers of innovation.
With the right tools and convenient environment, innovators and business communities can tap on the potential of STI to develop in-novative solutions to address the challenges facing their communi-ties. That’s why the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) has launched the first ever Online Platform – ‘Engage’ which connects innovatiors and connect them with market opportunities and accessto funding.
Engage Platform is the perfect online environment to interact and engage with a large network of all stakeholders from around the world such as NGOs, policy makers, researchers, scientists, private sector to showcase their ideas to address the challenges of sustain-ability in our member countries.
Through the Engage platform, IsDB will create a global innovation ecosystem for the world’s developing communities. Closely aligned to the UN SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs), its key focus is to accelerate progress towards achieving zero hunger, good health and wellbeing, quality education, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, and improved industry, innovation and infrastruc-ture in developing countries.
The Platform offers three main services: Match making of innovators and entreprenuers, technology transfer, and call for innovation.
Through Engage, innovators, SMEs, private sector companies and governments will benefit from tailored mentoring services and expert know-how. This is to enable them take their ideas and pro-posals to an internationally recognized standard.
To further ensure that innovators, Startups and corporations have access to a steady flow of financing facilities, IsDB has established a special Fund – ‘Transform.’ The Fund provides seed money for innovators, startups and SMEs to develop their ideas and compose a strong business proposal. Transform can also provide funding for
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 67
the commercialization of technology developed through sustained partnerships among researchers and entrepreneurs as well as capacity building.
Through Transform, innovative ideas are translated into real devel-opment solutions that will address development challenges and empower the communities and youth to realize their full potential.
IsDB Scholarship Programmes: Empowering Communities for Sustaina-ble Development
The IsDB recognizes that qualified human resources are the key for sustainable socio-economic development programmes and has given utmost importance of human development, vis-à-vis human resources development among its main stream financing from the very early days of its inception.
IsDB has launched its Scholarship Programmes in 1983 to provide opportunities for talented students in the member countries and Muslim communities in non-member to pursue their studies in the following programmes: Undergraduate, Master’s, Ph.D. and Post-Doctoral Research.
In 2017, the Bank also launched a Joint Programme with The World Academy of Science (TWAS) in Italy for building critical mass in the fields of Science, Technology and Innovation to address sustainable development challenges of member countries. In addition, as a new initiative for Least Developed Member Countries (LDMCs), a Joint Scholarship Programme funded by the ISFD has been launched with the specific aim of reducing poverty. This programme aims at providing scholarships to financially impoverished and academically meritorious to study vocational training and undergraduate pro-gramme.
Promising students and scholars are awarded scholarships to study in development related fields and return home where their newly acquired skills and knowledge are put to good use to contribute to the socio-economic development of their communities and coun-tries. So far, the Programmes provided scholarships opportunities to 16,907 students and scholars from 57-member countries and 52-Muslim Communities in non-member countries. Since inception, the programmes have helped to form a pool of over 10,000 well-
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 68
trained and experienced development professionals, transforming their countries and communities and positively impacting future generations.
The IsDB Scholarship Programmes have been revamped, and a new strategy has been recently developed under the leadership of the Senior Advisor to the President for Science, Technology and Innovation. The new strategy promotes Sustainability Science that aims to meet the needs of present and future generations. Under the new strategy, the fields of study which will be covered are the following: Sustainable Agriculture, Education, Education for Sus-tainable Development, Climate Change, Energy, Sustainable Cities, Responsible Growth, Waste Management, Population Growth, Green Chemistry, Biodiversity, Plastic pollution and Micro-plastics, Water and Hygiene, Health, ICT for Development, Innovation & Infrastruc-ture Development, Islamic Economics, Finance and Banking, and Development-related Social Sciences.
In pursuance of its objective to play the role of catalyst in develop-ment of Science, Technology and Innovation in its member coun-tries, the IsDB has asserted its position by linking the programmes with reputable universities worldwide. Therefore, a new partnership model has been pursued with the top (10) ten ranked universities in all beneficiary countries through Memorandum of Agreements. Under the new partnership model, the hosting universities will play a strategic role to provide the students with the necessary mentoring and guidance to ensure their academic success. They will equally facilitate the students’ financial entitlements, accommodation and promote the IsDB scholarship programmes.
Graduated students become part of a larger community of Alumni around the world to exchange knowledge and contribute with inno-vative solutions for the development of their local communities. IsDB will continue reaching-out to its Alumni and invite them to partic-ipate, among others, in an annual Call for Innovation through its recently launched “Engage Platform & Transform Fund”. The winning applicants will receive financial support to translate their innovative ideas into development solutions and possible commercialization.

Agriculture and Rural Development
Agriculture is one of the major sources of employment in IsDB mem-ber countries, which are blessed with large endowments of natural and human resources. The IsDB member countries account for 19 percent of the world population, occupying about 25 percent of the world’s land area. They also make up 28.8 percent of the world’s agricultural land and 13.5 percent of the world’s renewable water resources. 25 of IsDB 57 member-countries are among the world’s top 20 producers of major agricultural commodities.
Despite the huge potential, some critical challenges are still ahead of IsDB member states. These include:
• Depletion of natural resources and the growing threat of vulnerability to climate change, affecting the resilience and agricultural capacities, and hence the ability of member countries to provide adequate food for their populations.
• Spiraling rural-to-urban migration leading to higher rates of urban poverty.
• Emerging globally integrated production systems that pose significant challenge for farmers, who are predominantly smallholders with no or very limited access to technology and markets.
• High rates of youth unemployment among rural and urban population – around 16 percent in MCs.
• Growing civil unrest recently in many member countries, disrupting production systems and rural livelihood, and hence increasing the risk of vulnerability of both rural and urban poor population.
What we do
The Bank has contributed to 990 agriculture and rural development projects with at the cost of approximately US $13 billion. That ac-counts for about 30 percent of total project funding and 18.5 percent of the total investments made, respectively. These investments supported projects and programs to develop rural infrastructure, in-crease agricultural productivity (crop and livestock), build resilience of agricultural production systems, and generate rural employment opportunities.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 70
IsDB aims to assist its member countries in their efforts to achieve the 2030 global development agenda – the Sustainable Develop-ment Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 1 - No Poverty and SDG 2 - Zero Hunger. The Bank’s strategy is driven by three overarching objec-tives:
I. Alleviate poverty and enhance food security.
II. Enhance public-private-partnerships for sustainable, inclusive, and equitable agriculture and rural development.
III. Create job opportunities in agriculture and rural non-farm economy.
Areas of Focus
• Raising agricultural productivity
• Improving the resilience of agriculture production systems
• Linking farmers to profitable markets
• Enabling smallholder farmers and rural SMEs to have access to affordable financing
• Promoting inclusive, sustainable, and integra ed agriculture and rural development
• Building human and institutional capacity for rural economic growth

Water The world is increasingly facing challenges of water scarcity and uneven distribution of water resources. Addressing these issues requires more effective and integrated, inter-sectoral water manage-ment, coupled with enhanced management and operations capacity at all levels.
IsDB Member Countries are no exception to the global water crisis and mismanagement. Many member countries, particularly in the MENA and Central Asia regions face major challenges of water scar-city. In the MENA region, over 60 percent of the region’s population live in areas with high or very high surface water stress, compared to a global average of about 35 percent.
IsDB member countries rely extensively on irrigated agriculture to achieve food sufficiency. Hence, water agriculture withdrawals are about 80 percent in IsDB member countries, exceeding the world and the developed countries averages of 70 percent, and 40 percent, respectively.
Comprehensive water management is one of the priority areas of the IsDB member countries and it is important to develop access to safe drinking water, sanitation, agriculture production, food security, renewable energy, better planning of the environment and water management aspects.
IsDB member countries have different level of water scarcity issue, and the Bank is playing crucial role in supporting its member coun-tries to address the needs of water management and water security.
Most of the member countries situated in Africa, the Middle East, and in Central and Southeast Asia suffer from chronic water short-age with an average annual renewable water resources standing at 913m3 per capita, a rate which is below the threshold of 1,000m3.
Since its inception, the Bank has prioritized financing water-related projects, with cumulative commitments amounting to USD 9.4 billion for over 320 water sector operations. IsDB interventions were demand driven and aimed at expanding access to services. Initially, they were focused, mostly, on rural settings. However, currently, with
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 73
the global demographic shifting to urban areas, the Bank has shifted its operations’ inclination toward MCs’ urbanization trends and the growing needs in water supply and sanitation services in these areas.
What we do:
Currently, IsDB is actively involved in over 100 water sector projects, with commitments of more than $ 6 billion. The distressing water challenges in Oman, Lebanon, Morocco, Iran and Bahrain make MENA region IsDB’s main beneficiary of water related project financ-ing. While the focus in these countries has been on improving water supply and sanitation services, the sub-Saharan Africa has been the major beneficiary of water for food investments, through the devel-opment of small and large irrigation schemes in countries such as Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal, etc. The Water Sector Thematic areas includes:
• Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM)
• Water Productivity for Food Security
• Safe Drinking Water for All
• Sanitation and Hygiene
• Water Security and Governance
• Water Resources and Climate Change
• Transboundary Water Resources
Causes:
Islamic values encourage respecting natural resources and discour-age wastage of resources strongly, particularly of water. Maintaining the same value, the Bank focuses its investments for sustainable development of water resources; hence, playing its role in meet-ing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly goal #6 which addresses water scarcity, improve water use efficiency and adopt advanced and innovative water techniques in its MCs. These massive challenges can only be achieved through cooperation and partnership with other development partners.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 74
Sub-sectors covered by the IsDB are:
• Irrigation and Drainage
• Water Storage / Dam
• Bulk Water Transfer
• IWRM / Basin Management
• Rural Water Supply and Sanitation
• Rain Water Harvesting
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 75
Climate ChangeClimate change remains one of the most pressing challenges of our time due to its impact on vulnerable communities and environment around the world. As a south-south development institution, climate change remains a priority area for the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB). The Bank does not only understand the risks climate change poses to cities, agriculture, health, transport, water, sanitation, and energy systems, but also sees the opportunities climate change offers to the least developed, emerging, and developed economies among IsDB member countries
Since its inception, IsDB has invested in high-impact projects worth billions of US dollars in agriculture, energy, education, health, transport, and urban development services sectors in its member countries. However, if climate change is not urgently addressed, the development gains and achievements made by the Bank and its partners can be disrupted, and even reversed, by the devastating effects of climate change. The challenges of climate change need to be addressed through emission-mitigating, adaptation-driven, and resilience-focused investments and interventions.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Paris Climate Accord have created an opportunity to address the challenges and vulnerabilities posed by climate change. Subsequently, they have also created platforms to tackle the twin-goal of climate-friendly investments and economic development, which has remained a pressing challenge among many IsDB member countries.
To address the salient impact of climate change in IsDB member countries, the Bank is systematically integrating climate risk as-sessments, mitigation, and adaptation measures into its long-lived, climate-sensitive and highly-prone investment operations to help make them resilient to a changing climate. The focus is to create sustainable systems (agriculture, energy, health, transport, water etc.) that are robust, resilient, and adaptive to changing climatic conditions through Islamic modes of financing.
IsDB supports its member countries in identifying and profiling those climate change risks that are likely to affect financed or poten-tial development operations. In its function, the IsDB Climate Change
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 76
Policy, Member Country Partnership Strategy (MCPS), and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of IsDB client countries drive the Bank’s climate financing activities and operations.
IsDB formulates, designs, and develops climate risk mitigation and adaptation strategies and options that increase climate resilience through the application of climate-friendly and resource-efficient technologies. In addition, IsDB assists member countries to fill existing development gaps by strengthening institutions, capacity building, partnership, and leveraging its resource-mobilization capabilities with other private, national, bilateral, and multilateral development partners.
In its effort to tackle the challenges of climate change, IsDB op-erates in multiple sectors across the Bank’s Global Practices and Regional Hubs in sectors including energy (renewable and smart systems), climate-smart agriculture, forestry, resource efficiency, climate-friendly housing, sustainable transport, sustainable cities, coastal protection, waste management, water, and others.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 77
Urban DevelopmentCities accommodate more than half of the world’s population. By 2050, another 2.3 billion people are expected to get absorbed in urban community, predicts UN Population Projections. Urban settle-ments have been driving global economic growth and innovation for long. Today, cities generate around 85% of the global Gross Domes-tic Product (GDP).
The facilities in urban areas continue to attract rural population. The continuous migration from rural to urban areas adds complex-ities in the effective and efficient city administration. The constant migration from rural to urban areas requires consistent and robust measures to tackle the resultant challenges.
Urban challenges in the 21st century include the increasing need for people to move from place to place, rising demand for decent urban housing shelter, difficulty to manage waste generated by the urban dwellers, and higher water and energy consumption. When a city fails to address these challenges, such a city becomes less compet-itive, live-able and consequently loses its relevance as a key driver for growth. A well performing institutional structure and adequate financing are crucial requirements for cities to be compatible with the global urban infrastructure standards.
IsDB offers smart integrated solutions to urban challenges that aim at exploring better ways, which can enhance the livability and com-petitiveness of cities in its MCs.
What we do:
During 2009-2017, IsDB invested USD 4 billion in the urban sector of which 70 percent went to water supply enhancement projects, followed by sanitation and sewerage for 20 percent, solid waste management by two percent, housing one percent and others by seven percent. Housing sub-sector completed two key projects successfully in Bamako, Mali (US$ 31 million) and the Saida City (Lebanon) Infrastructure Development Project (US$21million). How-ever, the major completed projects were in the water (Bahrain US$ 191 million, Algeria US$ 63 million, Lebanon US$ 58 million, etc.) and
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 78
sanitation sector (Iran US$ 108 million, Turkey, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, etc.).
The three biggest ongoing water projects are in West Africa (Sene-gal, Mali & Burkina Faso). The Western Tehran Sanitation Project in Iran is the biggest sanitation project worth USD 211 million. Finally, the Cocody Bay Environmental Improvement and Urban Develop-ment Project in Cote d’Ivoire (Euro 234 million) approved in 2017, is the biggest urban development project financed by the Bank and it highlights a partnership and south-south cooperation between Cote d’Ivoire and Morocco.
IsDB’s focus area include the following thematic areas under the urban development operations:
• Urban Water Management includes potable drinking water, large, medium and small water treatment plants, storm water collection and drainage infrastructure
• Urban Sanitation and Waste Management that includes waste water collection and treatment facilities, solid waste collection and recycling infrastructure, and institutional strengthening;
• Urban Housing and Slum Renewal that includes low-cost housing for the vulnerable, slum upgrading;
• Urban Resilience (Climate Change) which includes flood protection, coastal barriers (hard and soft engineering)
• Sub-sectors covered by IsDB are:
• Urban Water Supply and Sanitation
• Water and Wastewater Treatment / Re-use
• Flood Protection / Storm Water Management
• Urban Services Planning
• Solid Waste Management
• Affordable Social Housing

TransportIsDB has contributed in major transportation related projects in its member countries. The bank’s interventions vary from building airports to seaports to roads to railway tracks and others. These projects have provided many landlocked member countries to reach out to other countries and expand their economies and supported regional integration.
The IsDB financing for transport sector has greatly helped countries in their integration efforts within the national, regional and/or global economy. These IsDB projects have enhanced mobility, accessibility and supply of goods and services among member countries.
Around 30% of IsDB operations portfolios are transport sector-related. In 2016, the IsDB approved 12 operations in 11 countries with a total value of US$1.53 billion. Some 51% of this approved financing was in the rail sector, 38% was for roads and 11% was for urban mass transit projects. Overall, 50% of the financing was for sub-Saharan African countries (mostly roads), 38% was for Asia and Europe, and 12% was for the MENA region.
What we do:
The IsDB is committed to improving the transport sectors in develop-ing countries and sharing the “Sustainable Mobility for All” objectives of making mobility equitable, efficient, safe and green. The Bank supports the International agenda of UN Decade of Action for road safety and the adhesion of member countries to the UN transport conventions. Key initiatives include:
• Supporting international initiatives of the Sustainable Mobility for All (SUM4All).
• Provision of sustainable transport infrastructure to enhance access, efficiency and safety.
• Regional integration through enhancing inter and intra-organization of Islamic cooperation trade and investment through cross-border and regional transportation projects.
• Global dialogue on transport and mobility to support transforming the transport sector and achieve sustainable mobility for all.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 81
Public-Private Partnership (PPP)Mega infrastructure projects require huge financial and non-fi-nancial resources; it is nearly impossible to meet the demand for infrastructure projects from the national budgets. Traditional public procurement of infrastructure investment can, therefore, no longer be sustained on its own.
This is where the role of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) becomes handy. For instance, currently, IsDB member countries are facing an estimated financing gap of USD 200 billion for infrastructure devel-opment on annual basis. PPPs allow a government and a private party(s) to form a long-term contract to provide a public asset or service, in which the private party bears significant risk and man-agement responsibility, and remuneration is linked to performance.
As a multilateral development bank (MDB), IsDB is playing an active role in the socioeconomic development of its member countries. In the same spirit, IsDB promotes and supports Public-Private Part-nerships (PPPs) by providing financing and transaction advisory services.
IsDB offers the prospect of expanding the sources of private fi-nancing for the large infrastructure investment needs of its member countries to help them cover their annual financing gap.
PPP Financing Operations
PPP procurement model has gained a considerable acceptance within the public policy dialogue. The chief purpose of PPP is to promote socioeconomic development in countries. Well-designed and economically efficient PPP procurement models lead to higher socioeconomic returns as compared to a traditional public procure-ment model.
Better selection, efficient implementation, cost and time reduction, efficient service delivery, and better maintenance are some of the crucial advantages of PPP projects; not to mention, bringing in private capital investment in national development plans. The latter, in turn, creates room for public funds investment in much needed social programs.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 82
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 83
IsDB’s PPP operations’ primary focus is on infrastructure financ-ing. Such financings encompass provision of long-term funds through Shariah-compliant modes to privately held, state-owned, or sub-sovereign entities. The terms and conditions are discussed and negotiated individually, and the transaction structure is agreed based on an optimized project and risk design.
IsDB’s non-sovereign lending portfolio has reached USD 2.7 billion by the end of 2017. Utilities including power generation, financial sector and energy & petrochemicals have the highest shares in the portfolio. IsDB has 46 active PPP operations so far in its 17-member countries. In terms of industry groups and sectorial distribution, 47% of approvals in 2017 were for renewable energy (utilities), 29% for healthcare projects, and 24% for thermal power (utilities).
Enabling Environment Activities and Project DevelopmentIsDB is actively assisting its member countries to improve their investment climates, capital market efficiency, enabling PPP-related infrastructure investments, supporting competitiveness, and sus-tainable growth.
IsDB involves transaction advisory services to develop and enhance bankable PPP projects. It undertakes policy level advisory activities and promotes knowledge sharing. It also consists of organizing annual networking platforms. One such platform is IsDB Member Countries PPP Forum aimed at highlighting the importance of PPP as a preferred alternative for procurement of infrastructure assets.
In 2017, IsDB launched the first IsDB Member Countries PPP Forum in Saudi Arabia. The Forum managed to increase awareness on the importance of PPP within the region by bringing together more than 300 government officials and private-sector business leaders.
In 2017, IsDB engaged with the Ministry of Health of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia related to the provision of PPP Advisory Services for development of health facilities where IsDB shall lead the mandate, in the capacity of Lead Advisor, along with consortium members.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 84
Resource Mobilization and De-risking
IsDB scales-up and leverages its resources through project syndica-tion, co-financing and other off-balance-sheet resource mobilization strategies. In its attempt to streamline part of the globally available resources for infrastructure development of its Member Countries, IsDB has introduced the first Islamic A/B Financing Structure open to both Islamic and conventional banks to mobilize private capital. Mobilization of private capital is also closely linked to de-risking the investment environment via insurance and other risk mitigation products and tools on which IsDB is working to develop further.
ThemesFragile and Conflict Affected Situations (FCAS)
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) States of Fragility Framework – 2018, identifies 56 countries experiencing a fragile situation, out which 27 are IsDB member countries.
The IsDB Group has been actively engaged in various ways in build-ing resilience and mitigating the adverse effects of FCAS. However, IsDB engagement are mostly on a case by case basis and mainly focuses on rebuilding physical infrastructure, renewal of human and social capital, and participation in international aid.
The IsDB Group, so far, has provided more than $2 billion FCAS operations in 40-member countries and Muslim communities in 19 non-member countries. IsDB interventions include relief assistance, water and sanitation, education, health etc. but mainly focuses on reconstructing physical infrastructure and rejuvenating human and social capital, which are carried out through Trust Funds, Fael Khair Program, Special Operations and ISFD.
Maintaining its commitment to global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), IsDB endorses the implementation of SDG 16 for the “promotion of peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, the provision of access to justice for all, and building effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.”
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 85
To address the challenges posed by fragility and realign its 10-year strategy and President 5-year Program (P5P), promoting inclusive economic and social development for FCAS member countries, the Bank aims to carry out the following activities in the coming 4-5 years:
• Setting the strategic direction of the Bank to support FCAS MCs by developing post conflict and fragility policy to have a systematic and coherent approach taking into account the main focal areas: (i) preventive actions addressing the root causes and the risk of conflict accenting the inclusiveness of opportunities to address disparities between geographic regions or readily identifiable social and ethnic groups; (ii) formulating investments aimed at the mitigation of the impacts of risks as an important second transitional step and; (iii) focusing on recovery to address impacts by jump-starting the economy (especially employment of women, youth and vulnerable groups), ensuring the transparent and accountable governance of resources, and rebuilding the human, social and physical capital of the MCs affected by FCAS.
• Introducing innovative financing facility to support the FCAS in the member countries to cope with the shocks, negative impact and consequences of the violent conflict and man-made calamities through Fragility Financing Facility (TRIPLE-F). The aim of the Tripe-F is to: (i) provide effective humanitarian and emergency response to the conflict-affected countries; (ii) support the economic, social transition, recovery and resilience building of the FCAS in the IsDB MCs; (iii) provide institutional support to strengthen capacity of the institutions; and (iv) encourage private sector-led development through enhancing Public Private Partnerships (PPP) to increase investment in the infrastructure reconstructions.
• Increasing knowledge and understanding of the conflict, fragility and resilience through knowledge product development and dissemination. The Bank will be carrying the following activities:
I. conducting IsDB led member countires Resilience Forum aimed at carrying out stakeholder engagement to bring all actors together; sharing experience and best practices in the area of resilience building; fostering partnership and financial leveraging opportunities and technical expertise transfer; (ii) producing IsDB Led Resilience Report, which will highlight trends,
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 86
challenges and opportunities of resilience in member countries, analyze the global practices, experience and lessons learned; increase awareness and knowledge in the areas of resilience and development, and provide practical recommendations and solutions. The report will also feed in the IsDB Resilience Forum.
Member Country Partnership Strategy
IsDB’s Board of Governors (BoG) approved a new operating model in 2014 to achieve the ambitious 10-Year Strategic Framework (10YS). This new target operating model aims for the Bank to: (a) be “Pro-active” by empowering member countries to foresee the future and make global market forces work for their development; (b) be at the Frontier: by leveraging a network of developers that can mobilize financial and human resources to meet the diverse current and future needs of MCs; and (c) be fast and adaptive by decentralizing geographically and functionally.
To drive the Bank towards the above mentioned operating model, the Bank adopted Integrated Strategic Programming Framework (ISPF). The ISPF focuses on developing a new generation of Member Coun-try Partnership Strategy (MCPS). This strategy defines IsDB’s inter-ventions in the Member Country through an agreed upon approach between the Bank and the member countries. The MCPS helps IsDB and the member country to define a universe of interventions over a period that focuses on maximizing developmental impact.
IsDB Group launched the MCPS in 2010 as a tool to mainstream three operating principles. These are: a) Being proactive - reaching out to clients instead of waiting to be approached); b) inclusiveness - seeking the support and cooperation of all stakeholders, and c) prioritization - allocating available resources to the most urgent and priority needs of member countries. MCPS is adopted to enhance the Bank’s synergy and development results by aligning member countries s priorities with the IsDB Group Vision.
Features and Developments: So far, IsDB has formulated 19 MCPSs; out of which 17 MCPSs have been successfully implemented while 2 MCPSs are under implementation. In addition to this, 10 MCPSs are under preparation.
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 87
During the MCPS process, the Bank engages in a wide range of consultations with the public and private sectors, academia, civil society, and other development partners.
Through the MCPS process, IsDB has been able to mobilize resourc-es, conduct sustained campaigns to disseminate its products and services, and build strong country knowledge by understanding emerging opportunities and challenges facing its member countries.
Based on the lessons learnt from the first batch of MCPS, the Bank has initiated a second batch of MCPS with greater focus on achiev-ing member country competitiveness and development effective-ness, promoting innovative interventions and global value chains, and expanding operations in several crosscutting areas including Islamic finance, private sector development and Reverse Linkage activities.
IsDB Group’s Market and Regional Cooperation Integration Program
IsDB’s Market and Regional Integration Program aims to strengthen cross-border linkages among the various economies to create a larger, synergistically enhanced market. The market integration encompasses activities with a common goal to provide a cross-bor-der trade financing and investment promotion, integration-oriented policy reform, harmonization of standards, as well as awareness of cross-border opportunities, etc.
In the same spirit, the Bank has adopted even a larger mandate - Re-gional Cooperation and Integration (RCI) which defines the process by which countries coordinate, collaborate and invest to strengthen integration of their economies, to mitigate shared risks and avoid conflict.
IsDB Group has made a significant contribution to RCI since its inception, including many infrastructure projects (hardware), directly impacting cross-border connectivity. During the span of 2015 – 2017, IsDB sector operations approvals with an RCI component accounted for 29 percent of total approvals worth US $ 4.44 billion.
The Market and Regional Integration Program helps to formalize and mainstream market integration within IsDB operations and external-ly through various market integration activities such as supporting a
IsDB in Brief: 1975—2018 88
Technical Assistance and Capacity Building Program (a World Trade Organization Program) since 1997.
IsDB launched the WTO-Program with the prime objective to help its member countries upgrade their human and institutional capacities to adjust to the new multilateral trading system. The aim of the Pro-gram is to provide greater awareness to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member countries on WTO Agreements and their implementation and facilitate the process of their accession to the WTO. It also serves as a forum where relevant officials from member countries can exchange views and discuss various multilateral trade matters.
The features of the program include organizing seminars and work-shops on WTO agreements; conducting technical courses on Trade Policy; organizing Consultative Meetings on important issues and in preparation for the WTO Ministerial Conferences. It also under-takes WTO-related studies; and provides advisory services through financing of experts/consultants to member countries on WTO-re-lated matters. Following are the activities that have been undertaken by IsDB Group’s WTO Program:
