School closures are becoming increasingly common as climate change exacerbates the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. This hurts student learning and has long-term consequences. So what can be done about it? Read here 👉🏼 #InvestInPeople blogs.worldbank.org/en/education/C…
Catching up with the literature on child growth & mortality for our updated #HumanCapital Index. Learning that the same biological factors that elevate male child mortality, also make male children more vulnerable to stunting. Fascinating summary here👉🏼 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Delighted to meet CEO @wdjstraw @KingsTrustInt 🇬🇧with Global Directors @iffath_sharif and Luis Benveniste. We discussed how to strengthen our partnership to support young people with core skills for employability. #InvestInPeople @S4YE_Coalition
Delighted to see the Hum Sab Ek exhibit @MittalInstitute @HarvardU. Remarkable documentation of the resilience of the poor -the membership of self-help group #SEWA -to acute (Covid) and chronic (climate change) shocks. 🙏🏽 Satchit_Balsari 4 the tour!
The new MENA Economic update stresses the importance of transparency to unlock sustainable growth. With the growth of renewable energy – #HumanCapital, gender equity, peace & economic diversification are critically important. #MENAUpdate: wrld.bg/orsB50RnlaH @WorldBankMENA
The goal of Universal Health Coverage #UHC is to ensure everyone receives the health services they need without facing financial hardship. Thank you to our partners and UHC champions who shared why this is so important: wrld.bg/v3ta50Rnx54 #InvestinHealth #HealthForAll
Wonderful to connect with the leadership of the #HumanDevelopment team in West & Central #Africa. We discussed how the #BetterBank can support #socialprotection , #adolescentgirls , #health service delivery, especially in fragile and conflict affected contexts. #InvestInPeople
I am inspired by lunch and conversation on #BringYourKidsToWork day. Aged 6-16 years, the kids had great questions on how many $$ we provide, what our money supports, what our work day consists of, and is our work stressful. Great to hear their aspiration to help the world!
At the #HumanCapital Ministerial Conclave at the #WBGMeetings, prominent tech pioneers & finance ministers discussed how to best harness digital tools to unlock human potential across @WorldBank countries of priority. Event highlights: wrld.bg/Ji3b50RmsU4 #InvestinPeople
Bold proposal by Nobel Laureate @DufloEsther on how to compensate poor countries for the excess mortality from climate change: raise the corporate minimum income tax rate by 3 points and tax billionaires. #WBGMeetings #InvestInPeople @G20Brazil ft.com/content/2fa578…
How can we #InvestinHealth to ensure health care for everyone, everywhere? Highly recommend that you watch our insightful discussion on #HealthforAll, and reaching 1.5 billion people with more & better health services by 2030 at the #WBGMeetings. wrld.bg/s0vz50Rkfoy

Today on his 50th death anniversary fondly remembering my grandfather, GL Mehta (1900-1974). An extraordinary human being, statesman, diplomat, business leader. India’s Ambassador to Washington DC, Chairman of ICICI, and much more. An inspiration to the generations that followed.
Thousands of Polish children were hosted in India during WWII. Most of them later left - one of the persons who stayed was Wanda Nowicka who married an Indian, Mr. Kashikar. Their granddaughter is Apeksha Niranjan, a Bharatanatyam dancer, who will perform in Warsaw tomorrow.
