World Bank Meetings

At a moment when developing countries are managing huge debt burdens while also investing in climate adaptation measures and a green energy transition, the world needs a stronger, more proactive and responsive global financial architecture to meet their needs.

This requires governments, institutions, philanthropies, and civil society to develop and refine technical solutions and advocate for meaningful change through the international architecture.

The Rockefeller Foundation is harnessing its considerable convening power to bring the right parties together during the World Bank meetings. As part of the 2024 Spring Meetings, the Foundation hosted nine events that brought together high-level participants from all over the world and made real progress toward reform. For the 2024 Fall Meetings, held October 21-26, we are building on this momentum with a program of speakers and panels aimed at advancing our shared objectives, strengthening and building the community of practice around these topics, and increasing public understanding.
