Behind every reform is a person whose life can change because opportunity reaches them. The challenge is not only creating solutions, but helping them travel further. That is the ambition behind how we share and apply knowledge across the @WorldBankGroup.
Strong primary healthcare is the foundation of better health outcomes.
During his visit to #Egypt, @WorldBankGroup's @Paschald visited primary healthcare facilities in Ismailia to see Egypt's Universal Health Insurance System in action.
📹 Watch the video for his reflections!

Nearly 3 in 4 people in #Yemen 🇾🇪 live below the poverty line. Many households do not have enough to eat, as import price shocks & supply disruptions continue to threaten livelihoods.

Across 190 economies, Women, Business and the Law reveals a stark gap between laws and reality:
➡️ 67/100 on laws
➡️ 53 on enforcement
➡️ 47 on systems and services
The result? Persistent opportunity gaps, lower productivity, and slower growth.
