Economic Guide
This timely and practical guide has been developed to support Pacific practitioners in making informed, high-quality decisions on infrastructure investments. It emphasizes the critical role of economic evaluation throughout the entire infrastructure lifecycle—from initial planning to delivery and long-term management.
"Sound economic analysis is foundational to developing infrastructure that meets community needs, delivers value for money, and supports sustainable development," said Robert Guild, Team Leader, PRIF Coordination Office. "This guide will empower governments, advisors, infrastructure practitioners and implementing agencies with the tools and knowledge needed to appraise and select infrastructure projects that make the greatest impact."
The guide aligns with PRIF’s continued commitment to building capacity and fostering evidence-based infrastructure decision-making across the region. It is especially valuable for those involved in policy development, investment planning, and project appraisal.
The guide and its supporting materials are now available on the PRIF website and in the link below.
