Abstract
The Country Opinion Survey in the Solomon Islands assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in better understanding how the Solomon Islands stakeholders perceive the WBG. It provides the WBG with systematic feedback from national and local governments, multilateral/bilateral agencies, media, academia, the private sector, and civil society in the Solomon Islands on 1) their views regarding the general environment in the Solomon Islands; 2) their overall attitudes toward the WBG in the Solomon Islands; 3) overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in the Solomon Islands; and 4) their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in the Solomon Islands.

Publication State of Social Protection Report 2025(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-04-07)Social protection goes well beyond cash transfers; it includes policies and programs that bridge skill, financial, and information gaps, aiding people in securing better jobs. The three pillars of social protection—social assistance, social insurance, and labor market programs—support households and workers in handling crises, escaping poverty, facing transitions, and seizing employment opportunities. But despite a substantial expansion over the past decade, 2 billion people remain uncovered or inadequately covered across low- and middle-income countries. Drawing from administrative and household survey data from the World Bank’s Atlas of Social Protection Indicators of Resilience and Equity (ASPIRE), the "State of Social Protection Report 2025: The 2-Billion-Person Challenge" documents advances and challenges to strengthening social protection and labor systems across low- and middle-income countries, analyzing the evolution of expenditure, coverage, and adequacy of support. This report details four policy action areas governments can embrace to maximize the benefits of adequate social protection for all: extending social protection to those in need; strengthening the adequacy of social protection support; building shock-proof social protection systems; and optimizing social protection financing. The report discusses how the path of reforms will depend on country context, capacity, and fiscal space. The rising frequency of shocks and crises calls for major investments in the adaptability and preparedness of social protection and labor systems. Amid a world in transition, social protection is more important and necessary than ever.Publication Extreme Weather, Extreme Costs(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-01-30)Climate risk management in Malawi's financial sector is a pressing issue that demands immediate attention. Globally, the urgency of addressing climate change is escalating, and many African countries are taking proactive steps to mitigate its financial implications. Kenya, Tanzania, and Morocco, among others, have already implemented supervisory guidelines for climate risk management to safeguard their financial systems and economies. The Reserve Bank of Malawi (RBM), recognizing the critical importance of this issue, has similarly initiated the development of climate risk supervisory guidelines for banks and are considering doing the same for the insurance sector. To inform these policy efforts, RBM, with the support of the World Bank, conducted this assessment to better understand the impacts of climate change on the insurance and banking sectors in Malawi. This report’s analysis is the first of its kind for Malawi, and one of the first climate-related financial risk analyses in the Africa region that looks at the impact of climate change on the insurance sector in addition to the banking sector. The ultimate objective of this report is to build a roadmap for RBM to better assess and manage climate-related financial risks for banks and insurers.Publication Global Economic Prospects, January 2025(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-01-16)Global growth is expected to hold steady at 2.7 percent in 2025-26. However, the global economy appears to be settling at a low growth rate that will be insufficient to foster sustained economic development—with the possibility of further headwinds from heightened policy uncertainty and adverse trade policy shifts, geopolitical tensions, persistent inflation, and climate-related natural disasters. Against this backdrop, emerging market and developing economies are set to enter the second quarter of the twenty-first century with per capita incomes on a trajectory that implies substantially slower catch-up toward advanced-economy living standards than they previously experienced. Without course corrections, most low-income countries are unlikely to graduate to middle-income status by the middle of the century. Policy action at both global and national levels is needed to foster a more favorable external environment, enhance macroeconomic stability, reduce structural constraints, address the effects of climate change, and thus accelerate long-term growth and development.Publication Air Quality Management in Central Asia(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-05-02)This report aims to enhance the understanding of the priorities, needs, and solutions for improving air quality (AQ) in Central Asia (CA) through local action and regional collaboration. It focuses on key components of holistic air quality management (AQM): evidence-based analytics to identify the main sources of air pollution in CA, application of modern tools to assess the impact of cost-effective measures to improve AQ, assessment of the institutional and governance setup for AQM in CA with recommendations to strengthen it, and approaches to financing AQ improvement. Given the lack of comprehensive systematic and validated emission inventories of all PM2.5 precursor emissions, the technical assessment employs the regional emission inventory of the Greenhouse Gas - Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies (GAINS) model. Input data were updated for this study based on recent energy statistics and relevant national surveys. This report addresses emissions and the regional transboundary flows of pollution between Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Subsequently, the resulting PM2.5 concentrations in ambient air throughout CA were computed with the atmospheric chemistry and transport calculations of the GAINS model. Employing the source apportionment results of the GAINS model, the analysis then examines the contributions to PM2.5 population exposure. The report also presents source apportionment analyses for important air pollution hot spots in CA: Dushanbe (Tajikistan), Bishkek (the Kyrgyz Republic), Tashkent (Uzbekistan), Samarkand (Uzbekistan), Astana, and Almaty (Kazakhstan).Publication Equatorial Guinea Country Economic Memorandum(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-03-12)The focus of this Country Economic Memorandum (CEM) is to review key policy and reform options for Equatorial Guinea to build the foundations for renewed, diversified, and more inclusive growth. The CEM thus aims to contribute to the government’s economic development and diversification agendas. The first chapter of the report examines the drivers of past growth, and the country’s asset portfolio, and discusses possible long-term growth trajectories. The second chapter examines fiscal policy as the main instrument for efficient transformation of natural capital into physical and human capital, and outlines the fiscal challenges associated with the reliance on the volatile oil and gas markets. It identifies the key gaps in public financial management, including the challenges posed by climate change and provides reform options for implementing an effective fiscal policy. The third chapter explores the present state of education, health, and social protection and discusses priority options to boost human capital. The fourth chapter then turns to the private sector and the main cross-cutting issues that need to be addressed to encourage higher investment, innovation, and productivity. The final chapter drills down into some key sectors which are likely to play a prominent role in any new growth strategy. These include digitalization in both the public and private sectors, and integration into the world economy through trade and ecotourism.
