As Prepared for Delivery
Many thanks Madame Ambassador for the opportunity to address excellencies and esteemed colleagues present here today on this important topic. I very much welcome the restated commitment to break the cycle of panic and neglect.
We have engaged over the past decades in the response and recovery to many shocks and disasters and have learned a lot through these experiences and through the direct engagement with governments across the world.
For instance, notable innovations have been introduced in the International Development Association (IDA) in recent years to incentivize countries to access IDA for crisis preparedness, including pandemic preparedness, and embed these efforts into core country operations.
