The Joint Assessment Mission to East Timor, coordinated by the World Bank, was endorsed at a meeting of donors, UN agencies and East Timorese representatives on September 29th, 1999. Early deployment of the mission was driven by lessons of other post-conflict countries, where lack of coordination between relief and development planning has delayed the transition from emergency relief to more sustainable development support, and has caused inefficiencies and duplication in the use of external resources.
The Mission aimed to identify priority short-term reconstruction initiatives and provide estimates of external financing needs, covering eight sectors and incorporating international technical expertise from five donor countries, four UN agencies, the European Commission, the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank. A concurrent mission of the IMF accompanied the Joint Assessment Mission. Timorese technical specialists were paired with international experts in each sector, to ensure input of local knowledge and capacity-building for local professionals.
This report outlines the principal findings and recommendations of the mission.
