Honored to open and organize the "Understanding Autism" workshop with the All In for Disability Inclusion ERG and HR at @the_IDB. @LiveWellEd led an enlightening session on autism, its challenges, and creating a neurodiverse-friendly workplace.

We're revitalizing Paramaribo's waterfront through the PURP project with the @the_IDB. This initiative not only beautifies our city but also supports local businesses, boosts tourism, and strengthens community ties.

Visited the @the_IDB Detention Basins Infrastructure Project. Providing essential water services to San Salvador, this initiative fosters economic growth and resilience in vulnerable areas. Our commitment to sustainable solutions tackles social and environmental challenges.

Seeing our @the_IDB projects in El Salvador highlighted the importance of education. Quality education equips children with essential skills and helps break the cycle of poverty. Investing in education is not just a necessity it's a pathway to sustainable growth and opportunity.

It’s a wrap for this year #WBGMeetings! Great ending with the Small States Forum hearing the perspective of #suriname and #guyana @JadeTjon @Ashni_K_Singh
As the world's finance ministers gather at the IMF and World Bank Annual meetings, Suriname is appealing to the international community and to multilateral banks to let forest-rich developing countries pay debt in carbon credits.

@WorldBank @el_BID
Great to be alongside the Finance Ministers of Suriname and Guyana, and the Country Representative of the World Bank for Guyana and Suriname. Our shared vision and strong partnership are driving economic resilience and sustainable growth in the region.
Historic milestone for Suriname as we joined the @WBG_IDA today. By joining IDA, we can better address education, job creation, and opportunities for our most vulnerable citizens.
