The World Bank brings all of these elements—financing, knowledge, experience, and commitment—to each of its partnerships with countries that aspire to grow their economies and provide greater opportunities for their people. As an institution with 189 member countries, we have an unmatched global reach that gives us the ability to work across countries and continents. We use our convening power to amplify the voices of developing countries by bringing together international, national, and local leaders with stakeholders to share knowledge, leverage relationships, and partner for solutions. We provide a wide array of financial products, technical assistance, and support for countries to apply global knowledge to the challenges they face. By working with countries to implement development projects over the long term, we help to ensure that growth is not only attainable but sustainable as well.
Three priorities guide our work with countries: accelerating sustainable and inclusive economic growth; investing in people in order to build human capital; and fostering resilience to global shocks and threats. Working across interconnected sectors, with an increasing array of diverse partners, we aim to improve the economic prospects of countries and people around the world” (Extract from the 2017 World Bank Annual Report)
