| description |
This book is intended for the wide range
of people around the world who need basic information about
the work of the Bank Group. This audience includes people
working in all aspects of development, students, members of
the general public, and staff members of the Bank Group
itself. Because this audience is so broad, the text
emphasizes the organizational and conceptual divisions of
the Bank Group's activities and guides readers to
potential sources of more-detailed explanations of the
development work in progress. The annual reports of the Bank
Group institutions provide more details on the volume and
types of development assistance. The annual World Bank Group
Directory lists telephone contacts for individuals and
departments. The following chapters explain how the World
Bank Group is organized; how it operates; and how its work
focuses on countries, regions, and specific topics in
development. Appendixes provide further information on Bank
Group contacts, on the organization's history, on
country membership and the voting shares in the
institutions, on the sector and thematic categories for the
Bank Group's activities, and on Bank Group resources in
individual countries. |
