Review of the existing strategies, documents and other secondary
data for preparation of situation analyses for the Country

Development Strategy (CDS) of Bosnia and Herzegovina
Introduction
The purpose of this document is to give an overview of the existing background information
on economic development of BiH. The main sources used are existing datasets, research
reports and studies and existing evidence-based strategies already approved by the BiH
Governments.
Some of the titles and subtitles listed above have been left blank and they represent potential
information gaps for the preparation of the Strategy. However there is a possibility that the
information for those sections have been overlooked, in which case the information will be
added in the next phases of the Strategy preparation.
