charged with developing sustainable solutions to help close
infrastructure gaps in developing and emerging economies. It currently
consists of four global departments: Energy & Extractives (EEX);
Transport (TRA); Urban, Resilience and Land (URL), and Global
Infrastructure Finance Department. It oversees the Bank’s work across
energy and transport sectors, urban development, as well as efforts to
promote energy transition, low-carbon transportation, livable cities,
disaster risk resilience, land management, and quality infrastructure
services through public-private partnerships. Infrastructure represents
