Excited to launch this new elevated partnership with @UNDP. Our joint focus on institutional development, policy reforms, effective governance, & rule of law allows us to jointly help countries create the enabling market conditions & unlock private finance for jobs and growth.

[Alexander De Croo 🇺🇳 @alexanderdecroo]

Together, @UNDP and @WorldBankGroup have launched a new framework of cooperation to de-risk investment and unlock financing creating jobs and growth.

@IMFNews @WorldBankGroup @CSIS @UNDP We cannot build a prosperous world without a clear focus on jobs.

But work alone is not enough—around 300 million workers still live in poverty.

We need jobs that build prosperity: higher productivity, better pay, and real stability. Expanding access to technology is key.

[Alexander De Croo 🇺🇳 @alexanderdecroo]

Start of the @IMFNews - @WorldBankGroup Spring Meetings with @CSIS.

This year’s gathering is overshadowed by war in the Middle East.

@UNDP analysis shows that in just 6 weeks, the conflict could have pushed 32 million people back into poverty.

[UN Development @UNDP]

📣Happening TODAY: Join our Administrator @alexanderdecroo for a discussion with @CSIS exploring how a reimagined model of development cooperation can close the gap between the resources available & the scale of need on the ground.

The epidemic of violence against women & girls shames humanity.

No country or community is unaffected.

And the situation is getting worse.

We need urgent action for justice & accountability.

Let's join forces to end the scourge of violence against women & girls everywhere.

RIP @officialmutombo Dikembe Mutombo! He was my husband’s class mate. Our prayers are with his family🙏

[Ed Cooley @HoyaCoachCooley]

The world lost a special person in Dikembe Mutombo, but he will live on through his humanitarian work and commitment to family. Dikembe truly embodied what it means to be a global ambassador - he is forever a Hoya, and Dikembe's legacy transcends the sport of basketball.
