World Bank Live is the World Bank’s digital platform for live-streaming and engaging with global audiences in open and two-way conversations about international development.

Since 2013, World Bank Live has hosted over 700 public events in four languages: English, Spanish, French, and Arabic.

Panel discussions and high-level events are live-streamed during the Spring and Annual Meetings and throughout the year. International audiences can attend report launches, roundtables, speeches from senior management and global leaders, and join global conversations on key development topics such as climate change, economic recovery, debt management, digital transformation, sustainable development, and much more.

Each event is covered live by international development experts from the World Bank and partner organizations, taking questions from the audience in real-time and sharing research findings and learning resources.
