Sustainability Review 2021
(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2021-10-12) World Bank
The global pandemic has highlighted the deep interconnectedness between the planet, people, and economies, increasing the urgency of our work at the World Bank. It has also strengthened our commitment to environmental, social, and economic sustainability in all that we do. As we support our client countries to meet their development goals in a sustainable manner, we work hard to “walk the talk” in our own investments, practices, and corporate footprint. Living our core values of impact, integrity, respect, teamwork, and innovation demands nothing less. The Sustainability Review 2021 highlights World Bank activities undertaken in fiscal 2020 and 2021 to manage the environmental, social, and economic impacts of internal business operations. The review complements the World Bank Annual Report 2021 and the World Bank Global Reporting Index (GRI) 2021.
World Bank Group Climate Change Action Plan 2021–2025: Supporting Green, Resilient, and Inclusive Development
(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2021-06-22) World Bank Group
The Climate Change Action Plan 2021–2025 aims to advance the climate change aspects of the WBG’s Green, Resilient, and Inclusive Development (GRID) approach, which pursues poverty eradication and shared prosperity with a sustainability lens. In the Action Plan, we will support countries and private sector clients to maximize the impact of climate finance, aiming for measurable improvements in adaptation and resilience and measurable reductions in GHG emissions. The Action Plan also considers the vital importance of natural capital, biodiversity, and ecosystems services and will increase support for nature-based solutions, given their importance for both mitigation and adaptation. As part of our effort to drive climate action, the WBG has a long-standing record of participating in key partnerships and high-level forums aimed at enhancing global efforts to address climate change. The new Action Plan represents a shift from efforts to “green” projects, to greening entire economies, and from focusing on inputs, to focusing on impacts. It focuses on (i) integrating climate and development; (ii) identifying and prioritizing action on the largest mitigation and adaptation opportunities; and (iii) using those to drive our climate finance and leverage private capital in ways that deliver the most results. That means helping the largest emitters flatten the emissions curve and accelerate the downward trend and ramping up financing on adaptation to help countries and private sector clients prepare for and adapt to climate change while pursuing broader development objectives through the GRID approach.

Mobilization of Private Finance 2019
(Washington, DC, 2021-01) MDB Task Force on Mobilization
This reporting year, Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) continued to operate in a challenging investment environment - total investment flows declined by 6 percent worldwide in 2019 - and that environment promises to become even more challenging in 2020 and 2021 with the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which calls for close MDB cooperation on mobilization of private investments. Private investment is critical for development, and MDBs’ research shows that greater mobilization is consistent with greater reductions in poverty and improvements in living standards, and MDBs remain resolute in their commitment to increase these flows. In this context, MDBs are committed to exploring new ideas and insights in mobilization, some of which are highlighted in the market trend essays in this report. The joint report documents that MDBs are significant financing partners in efforts to mobilize private capital toward emerging markets to help countries achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and that MDBs will continue to play this important role during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
