Governance Global Department
The Governance Global Department at the World Bank Group aims to help countries build capable, effective, accountable, transparent, and inclusive institutions that provide citizen-focused services, promote private-sector growth, and foster trust in government. The ability of governments to efficiently deliver public goods, support an environment that creates jobs and growth, address market failures, and involve citizens in the process is more crucial than ever. Countries with strong institutions are more resilient, better at encouraging private sector development, reducing poverty, delivering valuable services, and gaining citizens' confidence. The Governance Department brings together experts in public financial management, public administration and service delivery, state-owned enterprise management, public employment, regulatory policy, transparency, digital governance, law and development, anticorruption, performance management, monitoring and evaluation, and social accountability to develop innovative, integrated solutions to complex institutional issues. The department employs a problem-driven, diagnostic approach, merging global knowledge of reform successes and failures with a deep understanding of the institutional challenges and opportunities faced by developing countries.
