Business environment reform

Business environment improvements through the identification, design, implementation and evaluation of reforms. We understand reforms by their larger meaning, including not only the changes to regulatory frameworks but also administrative and institutional improvements that aim at reducing business costs, reduce risks for firms and the society, promote new businesses entry and existing businesses development, and generate positive social and environmental impacts.

Business environment sustainability

Based on the wide definition of sustainability, which incorporates both the social and environmental dimensions. Through the social dimension the ICR Facility supports the improvement of institutions, policies and practices to create a more inclusive business environment and levelling the playing field for all segments of populations, particularly the most vulnerable (women, LGBTI community, youth, migrants and refugees, among others) as well as fostering a pro-poor business environment targeting the bottom of the pyramid. Through the environmental dimension, the ICR Facility supports initiatives prioritising the business environment enabling it to support climate change mitigation, carbon footprint reduction, circular economy, among other dimensions.

Dialogue public-privé

The ICR Facility supports the implementation of existing PPDs through their institutionalization as well as through practical aspects of their activities such as facilitation, tools to foster dialog, or Monitoring and Evaluation of the process and its activities, as well as targeted capacity building to PPD secretariats, among others. Furthermore, ICR Facility supports activities that make PPD more inclusive (women, LGBTI, youth, informal businesses or workers, refugees, disabled, among others) and strengthening institutions to better engage in PPD.
