This is the management response to the November 2012 Independent Progress Review Report of the Partnership for Knowledge-based Poverty Reduction (PKPR). The management response notes AusAID agreement to seven of the eight review recommendations and partial agreement to one of the recommendations. Administered by the World Bank, AusAID's support for the program aims to strengthen the national efforts to reduce poverty and vulnerability by supporting the GoI in making informed and evidence-based policy and program decisions. The program has three pillars:
