The World Bank’s Evolution Roadmap will not deliver climate justice

The central driver of the World Bank's approach towards resolving the climate crisis places the  private sector as the key provider of finance and centres the WBG as a facilitator of the mobilisation of private capital. Given the Bank's record on climate, together with its plans for the future, such a scenario gives great cause for concern. Furthermore, while rich country governments - the main shareholders of the WBG - are pushing for a greater role of the WBG in climate action, they continue to fall behind on the U$S100 billion annual commitments on climate finance.
