An escalation of the conflict in the Middle East could have direct consequences for the world. Severe oil-supply disruptions could raise global inflation by nearly 1 percentage point this year. The world simply cannot afford more inflation. #CMO2024
Today’s 75 poorest countries account for a mere 3% of global GDP. Yet their economic potential is considerable, owing to the demographic dividend inherent in their population growth, explain @IndermitGill and M. Ayhan Kose of the @WorldBank. bit.ly/3xzN2mf
Next week's Heads of State Summit – under the leadership of President @WilliamsRuto – will be an important moment to build support for #IDA21. Governments, civil society & youth coming together to reaffirm that #IDAworks.

Unfortunately, the way global commodity prices brought down global inflation last year won't work this year. Prices leveling off are pushing the prospects for lower inflation further away – not to mention geopolitical tensions posing an even greater risk. #CMO2024
Today, I am the one being interviewed. So fun answering all of Bruna's questions! I wish I had her confidence when I was 8. Way to go, Bruna!

I couldn't think of a better guest to stimulate our thinking on how to become a better Bank than @CassSunstein. Thank you for inspiring us to embrace simplification for greater impact!
Gargee Gosh from the @gatesfoundation at #WBGMeetings: "For us [@WBG_IDA] is one of the most important ways the world shows our collective support to the poorest families and poorest countries around the world. " #IDAworks #IDA21
Administrative colleagues are the backbone of our organization. Here in D.C. and around the world, I see their dedication and hard work make a huge difference. With all my gratitude! #AdminDay
You’ll get goose bumps listening to Nora Anyidoho's poem about powering up Africa. Flipping the switch for over 300 million people – together with @AfDB_Group – is our goal by 2030! #PoweringAfrica
This year, I set myself the goal of reading 24 books. My reading streak continues, I'm on my 5th! On #WorldBookDay 📚 I hope you too will find the time to lose yourself in a good book!

Triple the strength, triple the results. Together with @bjerde_anna and @JuttaUrpilainen we are scaling up solutions to keep the promise of the SDGs.
At a time when conflicts are escalating and economic shocks are reverberating, it's more vital than ever not to forget @WBG_IDA. The @WorldBank's @Seynabou_Sakho explains why IDA is an investment in long-term prosperity: buff.ly/3vVwnZI #ThinkChangePodcast #WBMeetings

@bjerde_anna Cutest day ever at the Bank. A desire to improve the world starts young. 🌎
It is a great sight as young policymakers joined their parents for advancing the common good. Otherwise it is an excellent initiative to involve the next generation in policy and decision making
