Speaking at the Civil Society meeting on Tuesday, April 9, in Washington, the Chief Executive of christian aid, Amanda Mukwashi, urged the new President of the World Bank Group to be inclusive in the selection process of the new leadership of the international financial institution.

Mr. David Malpass, who started at the Bank on Tuesday, was nominated by U.S. President Donald Trump. Some development professionals feared that he would pursue Trump’s « America First » agenda by ignoring the global North/South power structure and pressing issues such as efforts to combat climate change. AlloAfricaNews
