IEG, the independent evaluation group of the World Bank Group assesses the relevance, efficacy and efficiency of the Bank’s programs and activities, and its contribution to development. As it name implies the IEG is independent, very independent from the Bank’s group.
In this podcast Roy Gilbert, task manager of IEG spars with Judy Baker, lead economist in the urban development unit of the World Bank, over the latest IEG report “Improving Municipal Management for Cities to Succeed.”
The winner? Well, the 31 000 municipalities of the world of course!
