Resumen
Descripción
These remarks were delivered by the
World Bank Group President David Malpass in conversation
with Samantha Power, USAID Administrator on June 21, 2022.
They discussed about the impact of overlapping global crises
on the poorest and most vulnerable people. The world, as
people know, is in a very complicated situation, especially
for people in poorer countries and the poor worldwide. It
has to do with inflation, with food, with conflict,
fragility, issues that we work with every day at the World
Bank and USAID does, too. As people know, the World Bank
works on an array of development issues and including and
especially right now food and fertilizer. We have announced
30 billion dollars of assistance in the food-related areas
as part of our response to the current set of crises. And
one of the challenges is, in specific country areas, to find
the right program. And we work very, very closely with
development assistance agencies around the world, including
and especially USAID.
