Fragility, Conflict & Violence © 2026 The World Bank Group,

Fragility, Conflict & Violence Addressing fragility, conflict, and violence is a strategic priority to achieve our twin goals— end extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity. We are working with the global community towards the Sustainable Development Goals—in particular Goal 16 for peace, justice and strong institutions. https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/fragilityconflictviolence By 2030, FCV countries will be home to up to 2/3 of the world’s extreme poor. Both low- and middle-income countries are affected by fragility risks, some far away from where the problems start. Violent conflict has spiked dramatically since 2010, and the fragility landscape is becoming more complex. © 2026 The World Bank Group,

Climate-smart agriculture Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an integrated approach to managing landscapes—cropland, livestock, forests and fisheries--that address the interlinked challenges of food security and climate change. https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/climate-smart-agriculture Climate change and food and nutrition insecurity pose two of the greatest development challenges of our time. Yet a more sustainable food system can not only heal the planet, but ensure food security for all. © 2026 The World Bank Group,

Inequality and Shared Prosperity © 2026 The World Bank Group,

Inequality and Shared Prosperity Faster and more broad-based economic growth is essential to accelerate progress in boosting shared prosperity. https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/isp Around one-fifth of the world’s population lives in countries with high inequality. Today, high levels of income or consumption inequality are concentrated among countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and in Latin America and the Caribbean. High inequality can reflect a lack of opportunities for socioeconomic mobility, which can further hinder prospects for inclusive growth and poverty reduction over time. Faster and more inclusive growth is needed to accelerate progress in achieving shared prosperity. © 2026 The World Bank Group,

https://www.worldbank.org/en/programs/anticorruption-for-development Combating Corruption The World Bank Group considers corruption a major obstacle to eradicating extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity on a livable planet. Corruption has a disproportionate impact on the poor and most vulnerable. It increases costs, reduces access to health, education, and justice, and exacerbates environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. © 2026 The World Bank Group,

Estimates suggest that removing barriers to women’s economic participation could raise global output by 15–20 percent. Yet progress remains uneven, with many countries facing persistent gaps in legislation, implementing policies and institutions, and legal enforcement. © 2026 The World Bank Group,
