Media

Media

Establishing new partnerships and expanding old ones is a major goal for the Global Bank Group, which has taken a number of steps on this front, including initiating and promoting long-term creative partnerships with, for example, the film industry, non-governmental organizations (NGO) coalitions, the business community, and young people.

Building Partnerships
No other sector has the outreach capacity or such a diverse range of methods for reaching decision makers and the general public as the media. This capacity makes the media a natural partner for Global Bank, whose activities are at the heart of all major challenges facing the world today, from disaster risk reduction to managing climate change and post-war reconstruction.

Global Bank Media

Partnerships with media can take a variety of forms. They can be short-term and linked to an event, or longer-term, covering a particular issue or, indeed, the full range of Global Bank’s activities.

The News and Media Division (NMD) tells the Global Bank's story through television, radio and the Internet, working together with partners in the media worldwide to raise awareness of the Global Bank's goals and highlight its successes.

The Global Bank media partnership is focused on:

  • Getting the News Out
    From emergency aid to Board of Governor's decisions – covering the gamut of Global Bank activities around the world.
     
  • Spotlighting Issues
    Focusing on the Global Bank’s priority goals and issues and their impact on nations and people around the world.
     
  • Building Partnerships

  • Engaging the Public
    Involving people in the work of the Global Bank through Information Centres, guided tours, briefings, video conferences and educational resources.
