On construction sites, it is more common to see men working than women. With the aim
of improving the gender balance in construction, the World Bank is implementing gender strategies in urban transport projects in Colombia. These have led to the increased participation of women in infrastructure projects.
Gender discrimination not only has a negative impact on women’s income; it also impedes companies and society from making use of the special skills that women contribute to the economy. The implementation of a gender equality strategy in the Bucaramanga Integrated Mass Transport System– Metrolínea – revealed the advantages of including women in this type of project and provided lessons that could be shared with other systems, sectors and projects.
The World Bank’s COVID-19 response and its implications on Procurement 
As part of the response to the COVD-19 crisis, the World Bank Group has announced that it expects to deploy up to $160 billion over the next 15 months by boosting health spending, strengthening social safety nets, supporting the private sector, and countering financial disruptions. It was announced that World Bank Group emergency operations to fight COVID-19 have reached over 100 developing countries.
In the global crisis caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19), the World Bank is helping
client countries respond. The World Bank Group will deploy up to $160 billion over the next 15 months to support COVID-19 measures that will help countries respond to immediate health consequences of the pandemic, support households and firms, and bolster economic recovery. Our first package of fast-track emergency health financing launched on April 2, 2020, and we are working with our borrowers as they move to implement emergency projects. A key component of this implementation is client access to critical medical equipment and supplies.

In today’s digital environment, while information can be free to access, it is also widely
dispersed, hard to find, and difficult to verify. According to Statista, as of 2019 there was an estimated 1.72 billion websites with varying levels of publicly accessible information. Searching for relevant, useful, and reliable information can become a frustrating mission, especially when related to public procurement.
It was based on this premise that the World Bank developed the Global Public Procurement Database (GPPD). Everyone from policy makers, procurement practitioners, government officials, NGOs, academics, members of the private sector, civil society and citizens have instant access to public procurement system information from 218 countries and independent territories. Having this data concentrated in a single publicly accessible location is one of many assets of the GPPD.
