Pleased to celebrate 50th anniversary of @WorldBank Group's partnership with Bangladesh, with PM Hasina.
Many countries can learn from Bangladesh’s innovative approaches to reducing poverty, empowering women, and adapting to climate change.
My remarks: https://t.co/BwrRzQ9wKT
I enjoyed talking with @NSitharaman and @DavidSolomon about ways to empower women as entrepreneurs & leaders.
Starting a business is a powerful tool for women to build a better future. Enabling access to finance, skills and digital technology is key.

Today at the final of the World Cup, I only hope the players on the field and the whole world remembers that there’s a man and fellow footballer called Amir Nasr, on death row, only for speaking in favor of Women’s rights.
