With this renewal grant, the World Resources Institute will conduct research and analysis of the World Bank Group, the Inter-American Development Bank, and export credit agency policies; participate in debates and dialogues with key international financial institution officials; organize informational workshops; and provide technical expertise and guidance to private financial institutions in the development of their climate change and clean energy policies.
