135 CHAPTER 5 ECONOMIC DIVERSIFICATION: LESSONS FROM PRACTICEC ontributed by the World Bank Group1 Abstract: ECONOMIC diversification remains a challenge for most developing countries and is arguably greatest for countries with the lowest incomes as well as for those whose economies are small, landlocked and/or dominated by primary commodity dependence. For such countries, ECONOMIC diversification is inextricably linked with the structural transformation of their economies and the achievement of higher levels of productivity resulting from the movement of ECONOMIC resources within and between ECONOMIC sectors. Rooted in examples of World Bank Group support, this CHAPTER traces the boundaries of any discussion of ECONOMIC diversification by advancing a definition that encompasses two related dimensions of diversification: (i) trade diversification ( exporting new or better products, or to new markets) and (ii) domestic production diversif
the development of domestic ancillary/logi stics services; and (ii) diversification “ across” industries (development of fisheries: high quality salmon exports, increasing exports of high value-added agricultural goods such as fruit and vegetables and wine production).
