As the World Bank Spring Meetings conclude, Devex takes a look at the projects in the pipeline for the world’s largest development bank. You can browse through different locations, sectors and the different stages of projects under preparation in this interactive visualization. More details on each project can be found in our Funding Activity Feed, which is also accessible through the visualization.
Most of the World Bank’s financial and technical assistance to developing countries is channeled through the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the International Development Association in form of credits, loans, grants and guarantees. In the fiscal year 2016, the IBRD and IDA committed $45.9 billion to partner countries through a total of 291 approved projects.
The World Bank project cycle has traditionally been divided into six stages: Identification, preparation, appraisal, negotiation and approval, implementation, and evaluation.
