Leveling the Playing Field

Addressing Structural Inequalities to Accelerate Poverty Reduction in Africa

Beschreibung

This new report provides an up-to-date ?big picture? on poverty and equity in the region. This is ecessary as the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, interacting with subsequent global shocks, have compounded pre-existing challenges faced by the region, even as climate change and conflict pose systemic risks to poverty reduction.

The World Bank came into formal existence in 1945 following the international ratification of the Bretton Woods agreements. It is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world. The organization's activities are focused on education, health, agriculture and rural development, environmental protection, establishing and enforcing regulations, infrastructure development, governance and legal institutions development. The World Bank is made up of two unique development institutions owned by its 185 Member Countries. The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) focuses on middle income and creditworthy poor countries and the International Development Association (IDA), which focuses on the poorest countries in the world.
