Političari i agencije za pomoć moraju uzeti u obzir pouke iskustva razvoja kao što su: Ključna uloga samih inicijativa za pojedince i preduzeća; Potreba da se jasno definišu i sprovedu svojinska prava, kao i vladavina prava uopšte; Potreba za efikasnim strukturama korporativnog i javnog upravljanja (borba protiv korupcije); Važnost makroekonomske stabilnosti za privredni rast; Plodovi rasta kaplju suviše sporo, tako da razvojni napori moraju da direktno rešavaju ljudske potrebe; za razvoj je potreban sveobuhvatan pristup i kontinuirani razvoj mora u obzir uzeti socijalni faktor.
