The recommendations of this thematic evaluation are to broaden the regional cooperation and integration(RCI) agenda beyond cross-border infrastructure (while maintaining the latter); deepen it with attention to fragile, island and linchpin countries; strengthen coordination across and within subregions; bolster country ownership for RCI; and develop new RCI project models. These are intended to feed into ADB's RCI operational plan, which is currently being prepared, and to strengthen the value and impact of RCI work going forward.
