This report investigates district‑level disparities in social development and their links to economic progress. It identifies regions with low rankings in education, health, water supply, and other basic services, highlighting where targeted allocations under the Social Action Program (SAP) can reduce inequality. By examining whether socially underdeveloped districts are also economically constrained – due to weak private sectors, limited tax bases, or affordability gaps – the study builds a case for resource transfers that strengthen local capacity and promote balanced, sustainable growth.
