The World Bank Group’s climate change strategy, laid out in its 2025 Climate Targets and Actions, recognizes that governance will play a critical role in addressing climate change. The strategy commits the World Bank to support clients’ efforts to mainstream climate action and fully integrate climate change into their planning, budgeting and fiscal policies. The Governance Practice plays a leading role in the implementation of this strategy, through its work with center of government, planning and finance agencies, inter-governmental relations, governance of State-Owned Enterprises, and open government initiatives.
