A CALL TO
ACTION
WBG Governors requested “… a systematic dialogue to enhance our shared vision for the WBG,
including strategic priorities, strengths and gaps, incentives, operational approach, and financial
capacity to bolster and scale the response to global challenges and move toward achieving the
Twin Goals and the SDGs in all client countries.”
The global community—including many of you—have called on MDBs to step up support for the
world’s polycrises; lend substantially more to governments and do more to mobilize private financing;
and do more on mitigation and adaptation to fight climate change.
