Challenges, Cases and Policy Lessons
144
 The overall assessment on the effectiveness of the transnational transport corridor from a
governance point of view.
Survey
The survey uses initial results from desk research, as defined above, and will be an important tool in
gathering input form stakeholders.
The survey is implemented in several steps, namely:
1. Identification of the relevant stakeholders in the 57 OIC Member Countries;
2. Preparation of the questionnaires and submission to the client for approval;
3. Submission of the questionnaires to stakeholders;
4. Collection of results and reporting.
Case studies and country visits
A total of seven case studies are selected and three country visits have been carried out. The case study
corridors and countries visited are presented in the table below. The case studies are organised in line
with the three governance levels (corridor level, regional level, national level) that are defined in the
Trade and Transport Corridor Management Toolkit (World Bank, 2014).

Synthesis
In this phase, the results from the data collection phase are analysed and project findings are reported.
The results of literature review, the surveys and the field visits, including the detailed case studies, are
integrated into this step, resulting in an overall analysis. The synthesis is presented in conclusions and
recommendations.
