An important question is the extent to which the current employment status of an
individual has a potential for future income growth, or if moving out of a lowincome situation means finding another type of employment or employment in
another sector. The analysis therefore looks at external factors explaining the country’s
growth and poverty reduction pattern, the overall productivity dynamics in the country,
the major challenges and opportunities, and possibilities for economic transformation and
diversification. The analysis also considers constraints to those sectors with opportunities
for productive employment, constraints affecting the ability to gain employment in these
sectors, and constraints affecting labor mobility across sectors and regions.
