🌍🔍 In our final 2023 episode, we explore the impact of the @WorldBank's @InspectionPanel. Established 3⃣ decades ago, the Inspection Panel has been a beacon for redress in World Bank-funded projects.
But how effective is it really? From environmental assessments to indigenous rights, we dissect decades of work holding power to account.
Our guest is Ramanie Kunanayagam, who was, until a few weeks ago, the Chairperson of the Panel.

I’m especially proud of 2 CSPF sessions:
✅Evolution to Accountability Roadmap: Lessons for the Bank’s New Chapter

For the open discussions with experts, Bank, & @InspectionPanel, @CAOoffice leadership on #remedy & #responsibleexit

On #WBmeetings panel, @AccountCounsel recommends @WorldBank and @IFC_org exercise leverage to prevent/respond to reprisals in response to findings of barriers to accessing #accountability mechanisms in the #MENA region
The Inspection Panel retweeted
2) All agreed that accountability matters,incl. institutions! Janine Ferreti of @CAOoffice said-when negative risk materializes, actions need to be taken to address them." Ramanie Kunanayagam of @InspectionPanel:“Confidentiality cannot become a weapon to conceal transparency"
The Inspection Panel retweeted
At #WBmeetings townhall with civil society, @WorldBank President Ajay Banga says “we will need a bigger bank” — with more lending comes more risk, and it is critical for the Bank to strengthen its accountability mechanisms and systems for remedying harm as it takes on that risk
The Inspection Panel retweeted
We look forward to a conversation with Banga, and we will continue to push for #Accountability & #Remedy at the @WorldBank, especially in the development of the #EvolutionRoadmap.
The Inspection Panel retweeted
In order to fulfill its mandate & achieve successful development outcomes, the @WorldBank must:
🗣️Center community voices,
📰Provide adequate access to information about projects & #Accountability measures, &
⚖️Commit to #Remedy & #ResponsibleExit when projects go wrong.
The Inspection Panel retweeted
In his opening remarks, Banga said that the new vision of the @WorldBank should be responsive to its pillars, including #People. As the @InspectionPanel Chair said in a panel earlier today, this requires the Bank to view #Accountability constructively, rather than defensively.
The Inspection Panel retweeted
In part, Banga's invitation came as a result of a question raised by CIEL campaigner @aubrey_manahan, who reminded the @WorldBank president that CIEL & partners reached out earlier this year to discuss this critical issue, but did not receive a reply.

💪In response to questions at today’s Civil Society Town Hall at the @WorldBank #AnnualMeetings, President Ajay Banga extended an invitation to CIEL & partners to meet & discuss how the Bank is prioritizing #Accountability & #Remedy for communities affected by its projects.
The Inspection Panel retweeted
A better, bigger and more impactful @WorldBank is also a Bank that is #accountable and results oriented. This is our conviction and our commitment !
