The analysis and interventions recommended in the report are based on two research methods: literature reviews covering the period from 2000 to 2010, and a rapid situational analysis of five countries to confirm and add depth to findings from the literature reviews, provide insights on country-specific problems, and identify promising practices.
Based upon the gaps, challenges, and progress identified, the report suggests broad areas in which critical interventions are needed to scale up HR for UA. For each critical intervention, the report suggests specific actions that countries and the international community can take to implement it.
