The World Bank Group has set two goals for the world to achieve by 2030: (i) End extreme poverty by decreasing the percentage of people living on less than $1.90 a day to no more than 3%, and (ii) promote shared prosperity by fostering the income growth of the bottom 40% for every country.
The World Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world.

This dataset tracks investments in geothermal power projects by Multi-lateral Development Banks (MDBs) since the ‘70s and the Climate Investment Funds (CIFs) more recently. All the information by project has been obtained from public sources, primarily the MDBs’ and CIFs’ websites. Figures have been converted to constant 2010 USD. The table provides information on the total estimated cost of each project and on the specific contribution by the relevant MDB or by the CIFs. The latter is then broken down according to the financing target. The break down is sometimes clearly provided in the project documents, while in other cases it is an estimate based on the project description as no figures were available.
