I still remember my sons' excitement, but also sometimes their nervousness, about returning to school. Wishing everyone going back to school this month – children and teachers – a fantastic new school year!

In Viet Nam, Tham and the other forest guardians are unseen heroes. They don't just save forests, they're shaping the future of entire communities. A future that remains green & sustainable, all while creating new opportunities. wrld.bg/Cp4S50T83Wz

Excited to watch the #Paralympic Games! The athletes competing are the ultimate example of resilience and determination, pushing beyond limits with unmatched strength & spirit. #Paris2024

Part of the solution to financing climate action lies in your bank's investment decisions. Yet most banks in emerging market & developing economies – where they dominate the financial sector – barely invest in climate. It's time to reassess priorities and #FinanceProsperity.

Looking back, I can't think of a more formative experience than the one I had as a World Bank Group Young Professional. If you're 32 or younger, this is your opportunity to make a difference! wrld.bg/XzZ050TekMw

The climate crisis has never hit young people harder. Over the past two years, 400 million students around the world have missed school due to extreme weather. And yet, education can help turn climate anxiety into #ClimateAction. wrld.bg/vLui50Tfx1F

The @worldbank is backing Fiji's Health Sector Masterplan to help tackle non-communicable diseases while strengthening health systems to boost climate resilience. This work moves us closer to our goal of providing 1.5 billion people with healthcare.

Proud of our continued support to the children of #Ukraine who, after three years of war, have fewer & fewer safe places to study. The determination of the government of Ukraine to continue investing in the next generation is a strong sign of the country's resilience.

In Tuvalu Ajay stressed the need for investments in adaptation & infrastructure, but also in people’s skills and talents to forge a resilient future. Hearing from young climate activists reaffirmed World Bank’s commitment to allocating 45% of our financing to climate initiatives.

Chances are, like 90% of the world's population, you breathe air that exceeds the safe pollution threshold. Yet, governments continue to spend millions subsidizing fossil fuels – making the problem worse. It's time to shift away from harmful subsidies. weforum.org/agenda/2024/09…

Cleaner air is possible. What does it take? Decisive action from countries, paired with the involvement of entire communities. People in northern China, India, Senegal & the Kyrgyz Republic are already feeling the difference. wrld.bg/atQU50Ti59M #WorldCleanAirDay

I couldn't be more inspired by Elizabeth, 73, who didn't want to miss her chance to go to school. As she embarks on this journey, she discovers that knowing how to read opens up a whole new world of possibilities. A world every girl & woman should have access to. #LiteracyDay

Years of crises and violence have left the people of #Haiti with little hope. Thankfully, the continued support of IDA - World Bank is helping to break this cycle. Glad to read this piece by Dirk Reinermann & Lilia Burunciuc about the positive impact we're having on so many lives.

"Reimagining how the World Bank can serve a world in profound need of change" is what keeps us up at night. As Ajay outlines, the World Bank Group is already on its way to achieving greater scale & impact – and we won't stop there. Listen to his remarks at The Lowy Institute.

I welcome the call from Pacific Island leaders for a robust #IDA21 replenishment. They see IDA - World Bank as a critical partner in achieving their collective goals & addressing a unique set of challenges. For the people of the Pacific, IDA is a window of hope & opportunity.

At a time when hunger and famine are on the rise in too many places, joining forces with partners like World Food Programme is essential for making a meaningful impact. Carl Skau, whom I met today, and I both share this conviction.

The (not so) secret to a long & healthy life is that your country invests in you – from childhood to old age. Because the right policy choices can help you be healthier. Our new report shows that there are effective strategies for increasing longevity. wrld.bg/AMIp50Tn5R0
