«World Bank Group/Climate Change Action Plan/ 2021-2025/Supporting Green, Resilient, and inclusive Development»

 


Introduction
«Our collective responses to climate change, poverty, and inequality are defining choices of our age. We must tackle them together to deliver on our twin goals of reducing poverty and boosting shared prosperity. The COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis have been devastating, and as we support countries to respond to the ongoing crisis and build back, there is an urgent need to integrate climate and development strategies to deliver green, resilient, and inclusive development. There will be tradeoffs when implementing an ambitious climate agenda, including transition costs, but these can be reduced through a people-centered approach, effective fiscal and social policies, and policies supportive of attracting private sector investment. The cost of not addressing climate change is already immense and will only get more expensive. The World Bank Group (WBG) recognizes that globally, the poor, who are the least responsible for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, often suffer the most from climate change impacts. WBG client countries and private sector clients have powerful reasons to fight climate change. Not only are many of them highly vulnerable to climate impacts, which threaten their ongoing development and the well-being of their people, but as the global economy moves toward a net-zero future, they need to stay competitive. A well-managed transition can ensure that climate action brings more and better jobs and reduces poverty. Accelerating economic transformation is the best way to boost employment sustainably. The WBG will work with both the public and private sectors to support the climate agenda. For example, public sector interventions can help countries implement policy and regulatory reforms and create incentives to crowd-in private sector participants and to catalyze private sector investment, using our menu of advisory and financial instruments.

«Transition to integrated reporting/A guide to getting started»

«In January 2021, we published a revised International Framework, which replaced the original 2013 version. In this Guide, the term Framework refers to the International Framework (2021). As a supplement to the Framework, this Guide helps report preparers develop a custom-fit transition plan to integrated reporting. Like the Framework, the Guide is written in the context of private sector, for-profit companies of any size, but can also be applied by public sector and not-for-profit organizations».

  • Achieving genuine connectivity between financial accounting and sustainability standards We believe that achieving connectivity between the IASB and ISSB will be important to creating a properly aligned corporate reporting system reducing the risk of unnecessary conflict, costly duplication and reporting silos. To achieve this connectivity, we believe the essential tools already exist, in the form of the Management Commentary Practice Statement and International Integrated Reporting Framework, which could be combined to provide an umbrella connecting framework across the work of the IASB and ISSB.
