World Bank – “What’s the weather like tomorrow?”

World Bank – “We are not a bank in the common sense. Owned by 188 member countries, we are one of the world’s largest sources of development assistance, with a mission of fighting poverty with passion by helping people help themselves. Conceived in 1944 to reconstruct a war torn Europe, we work in more than 100 developing countries, bringing a mix of financing programs and ideas to improve living standards and eliminate the worst forms of poverty.”

GFDRR – “Established in 2006, the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery is a partnership of 41 countries and 8 international organizations committed to helping developing countries reduce their vulnerability to natural hazards and adapt to climate change.”
