Honduras se incorpora a la Alianza por la Atención Primaria de Salud en las Américas, impulsada por la OPS, el BID y el Banco Mundial.

El acuerdo fortalecerá la cooperación, la inversión y la innovación para acercar servicios de salud de calidad a las comunidades.

I had the privilege of seeing rhinos while on safari decades ago. Glad to see the @worldbank doing something to protect this beautiful species.

En nuestra región hay 34 millones de niños, niñas y adolescentes para los que ser afrodescendientes es sinónimo de discriminación. Cambiar esta realidad amerita apostar por una de las herramientas más poderosas para luchar contra el racismo: la educación. https://t.co/fvEAbM6jNh

Happy International Women's Day 💐 You deserve it the most along with all the women who are now defending Ukraine 🇺🇦💗

Coordinated international action will be crucial to mitigate risks and navigate the treacherous period ahead.

.@WorldBank Group mobilizes +$700m in emergency financing to support Ukraine. The funds will help ensure critical services to people continue despite the Russian invasion. https://t.co/nhifkL6TVG

[David Malpass @DavidRMalpass]

Good to join @FaceTheNation's @margbrennan to discuss the Ukraine tragedy & its global economic impact.

Further inflation in energy & food will hit the poor hard until supply increases.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The @UN was born out of war to end war.

Today, that objective was not achieved.

But we must never give up.

We must give peace another chance.

[David Malpass @DavidRMalpass]

I am deeply saddened and horrified by the devastating developments in Ukraine, which will have far-reaching economic and social impacts.

When I met with President @ZelenskyyUa Saturday in Munich, I reaffirmed the @WorldBank Group’s strong support and commitment.

Just over half of people living in low-income countries reside within an hour of a city. Our @WBG_Poverty and @WBG_Transport teams have developed a framework to measure the potential benefits of rural road projects and expand access to opportunities. https://t.co/U7DIUaLd2I

Good read on how COVID-19 changed our world but also how it has opened up an opportunity for governments to build a 21st Century economy that advances an inclusive and durable model of prosperity. @IndermitGill

[Indermit Gill @IndermitGill]

An era of persistent, rising inequality should worry us all: It could undermine progress and stability everywhere. New piece in @barronsonline this morning by my colleague Ayhan Kose and me on the looming threat of a lost decade—and how it can be avoided. https://t.co/NR55yVepoK

Governments have historically adopted "place-based" policies to boost economic development in regions that lag behind, but their results often fall short of expectations. A new report offers a roadmap on better ways to boost productivity in stagnant areas: https://t.co/dMQA9tv6jx

Pleased to see today's @WorldBank disbursement of disaster relief to #Tonga.

[Andrew Kircher @kircher_andrew]

My late boss James D. Wolfensohn always said the true measure of success in development is the smile on a child’s face. These latest figures showing improvements in the World Bank’s performance – largest in five years – are a welcome step in supporting that goal.  #worldbankgroup

[IEG - WB Group @WorldBank_IEG]

The @WorldBank's project outcome ratings, which have been improving steadily since FY10, saw a steep increase of 9 percentage points in FY20, according to IEG's Results and Performance of the World Bank Group 2021 (RAP2021). ➡️ https://t.co/kUMonNPDLT

Good news for the world’s poorest countries that have been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. @WorldBank
