En un pequeño rancho en el norte de Argentina se encuentra la modesta casa de Hugo Zerpa. Alejado de todo, Zerpa es, además de agricultor y comerciante, un hombre que se las rebusca para encontrar soluciones innovadoras para mejorar su calidad de vida. Ha inventado su propia antena de televisor, mejorado sus sistemas de riego y su cocina para evitar humo dentro de su hogar, todo gracias a la energía solar. En el medio de la nada, Zerpa avanza a pasos agigantados gracias a que, luego de sus tareas diarias, se dedica a investigar cómo hacer para tener una vida más “conectada” pero sin abandonar ese paisaje cobrizo que lo rodea. Nada de esto hubiera sido posible sin los paneles que se alimentan de día y mantienen la casa iluminada una vez que el sol se esconde detrás de los cerros. Existen grandes y pequeños fanáticos de la energía solar. Desde edificios enteros que funcionan con paneles en sus enormes terrazas hasta convencidos como Zerpa que conocen los beneficios tanto económicos como medio ambientales de esta fuente renovable. Aunque todavía no explotada en su totalidad, la energía solar tiene gran potencial. Así lo demuestra la herramienta “Global Solar Atlas” lanzada hace tan solo pocos meses por el Banco Mundial que, de manera gratuita y basada en los datos disponibles de la web, ayuda a los inversionistas y a los responsables de la formulación de políticas a identificar sitios potenciales para la generación de energía solar en prácticamente cualquier parte del mundo, con solo pulsar un botón.  ¿Tiene mi pueblo natal potencial para la energía solar? ¿Vale la pena invertir recursos en mi ciudad para que los servicios públicos funcionen con la luz del sol? Todo se puede saber a la distancia de un clic. El atlas muestra el potencial de energía solar promedio anual y tiene la capacidad de acercar a las áreas en gran detalle (con una resolución espacial de un kilómetro). También proporciona acceso a mapas globales y regionales de alta resolución y datos de sistemas de información geográfica, permitiendo imprimir mapas de carteles y utilizar los datos en otras aplicaciones.  Más allá del potencial económico para los inversores, esto ayudará a los gobiernos a ahorrar millones de dólares en su propia investigación al proporcionar una plataforma fácilmente accesible y uniforme para comparar el potencial de recursos entre los sitios de una región o de varios países. La energía solar no es una moda. En el año 2015, las fuentes de energías renovables superaron por primera vez al carbón en términos de capacidad de energía instalada acumulada en el mundo.  Según el Organismo Internacional de Energía, se agregó una capacidad sin precedentes de 153 gigavatios (GW) a través de energías renovables. La energía solar fotovoltaica —que incluye minirredes y paneles solares en los techos— representó casi un tercio (49 GW) de esa cantidad. En otras palabras, el año pasado se instalaron alrededor de 500 000 paneles solares cada día en todo el mundo.  Esta cifra va en aumento. De hecho, se prevé que la capacidad mundial de electricidad proveniente de fuentes de energías renovables aumente en un 42%, u 825 GW para 2021, y se espera que la energía solar desempeñe una función importante en el logro de esa meta. Y América Latina y el Caribe no es ajena a esta tendencia. La mayoría de los gobiernos están investigando e invirtiendo en fuentes de energías renovables: la creciente demanda de electricidad, sumada al aumento de las emisiones por dióxido de carbono las convierten en una atractiva alternativa.  Este es el caso de Argentina que busca que el 20% de su energía provenga de fuentes renovables para 2025. Una de sus estrategias más sólidas tiene que ver con apoyar el desarrollo de energías renovables alentando la generación de electricidad a través de fuentes como el viento, el sol, la biomasa, el biogás y agua a través de pequeños aprovechamientos hidroeléctricos. Para ello, el Banco Mundial le ha otorgado una garantía de 480 millones de dólares que impulsará la inversión privada en el sector.  Y ahora tanto los inversores como los pobladores pueden conocer el potencial de la energía solar a través de este nuevo atlas. Nada mal para comenzar un negocio sustentable con el pie derecho. 

Connection of millions of unbanked people to formal financial systems accelerated 27 July 2017, Geneva – A new global program to advance research in digital finance and accelerate digital financial inclusion in developing countries, the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative, has been launched by the World Bank Group, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the Committee on Payments and Market Infrastructures (CPMI), with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The three-year program focuses on three different “model” developing countries – China, Egypt and Mexico – and consists of two complementary operational and knowledge work streams. The operational work stream supports each country’s national authority – countries in which digital financial inclusion can significantly improve access to financial services for a large number of people without access to financial services. The knowledge work stream is designed to advance research and develop policy recommendations in three key areas of digital finance: security of information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure and trust in digital financial services; digital IDs for financial services; and acceptance and use of e-payments by micro and small-scale merchants and their customers. The inter-agency working groups tackling these issues will share findings at annual symposia. The first of these is scheduled to be the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative Symposium 2017, will be held in Bangalore, India, from November 29, to December 1, 2017, hosted by the Government of India. “We are excited to work with ITU and CPMI on this new global initiative that will enable our partner countries to better harness the potential of digital technologies for financial inclusion, and to manage associated risks,” said Ceyla Pazarbasioglu, Senior Director for the Finance and Markets Global Practice, World Bank Group. As part of the initiative, the three model countries are also receiving technical assistance from the World Bank Group with a view to putting into practice the guiding principles set out by the CPMI-WBG report on Payment Aspects of Financial Inclusion (PAFI). In particular, the assistance will contribute to further strengthening public and private-sector commitment and improving legal and regulatory frameworks, financial markets and ICT infrastructure for financial access and inclusion. It will also focus on improving financial product design; financial literacy and awareness; diversified access points; and large-volume, recurring payment streams. The World Bank Group leads the operational work, with ITU handling activities related to telecommunications authorities. “An estimated two billion adults are still without access to a bank account, and yet some 1.6 billion of them have access to a mobile phone, creating the potential for e-finance access,” said ITU Secretary-General Houlin Zhao. “The ITU community is excited to leverage our unique technical expertise to make e-finance a reality for millions of people through the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative, and in so doing, contribute to poverty eradication and the achievement of the global Sustainable Development Goals.” “The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is pleased to support the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative, which we believe will bring digital financial services to some of the world’s most vulnerable unbanked populations as well as advance knowledge on creating a robust digital payments ecosystem,” said Jason Lamb, Deputy Director, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The three countries selected were chosen based on potential for country programmes, level of national government and private-sector commitment to financial inclusion, number of people that could be reached through digital financial services, and potential for reforms to encourage innovation and digital technologies use. According to analyses carried out by the World Bank Group, Egypt has the potential to bring a large number of people into the formal financial sector (more than 44 million adults). These analyses found that Egypt has adequate laws, regulations and financial and ICT infrastructure, but a lack of funding to cover related reforms. Considered a ‘last-mile’ challenge, China has an increasingly well-developed legal and regulatory environment and financial infrastructure, as well as a supportive ICT infrastructure. The People’s Bank of China has requested support from the World Bank Group for digital financial inclusion measures to reach rural people without access to financial services. Mexico has shown a strong commitment to financial inclusion with its new National Financial Inclusion Strategy launched in June 2016, as well as a draft fintech law. Mexico has the potential to become a regional and global model for digital financial inclusion, despite relatively low levels of financial inclusion. China, Egypt and Mexico are already part of the Universal Financial Access 2020 (UFA2020) initiative. Led by the World Bank Group, this seeks to bring two billion unbanked adults in 25 countries into formal financial systems. The design of country programs under the Financial Inclusion Global Initiative will be informed by the same guiding principles of UFA2020 – the PAFI guiding principles – as well as the Level One guidelines for enabling payments infrastructure, and the recommendations of the ITU-T Focus Group Digital Financial Services.

Country: Colombia
Closing date: 31 Oct 2017

Médicos del Mundo, asociación médica militante de la solidaridad internacional, se compromete desde hace 30 años a atender a las poblaciones más vulnerables aquí y en el extranjero, a dar testimonio de las barreras que se identifican en lo concerniente al acceso a la atención sanitaria y a obtener mejoras sostenibles de las políticas de sanidad para todos. Como asociación independiente, actuamos más allá de la atención sanitaria, denunciando las violaciones de la dignidad y de los derechos humanos y trabajando para mejorar la situación de las poblaciones que se encuentran en situación de precariedad. A nivel internacional, MdM trabaja en 44 países repartidos en todos los continentes y se centra en cuatro cuestiones prioritarias (la atención de los migrantes y desplazados, la promoción de la salud sexual y reproductiva, la lucha contra el VIH y la reducción de los riesgos vinculados al uso de drogas, las crisis y los conflictos).

Médicos del Mundo ha estado presente en Colombia desde 30 años en zonas rurales afectadas por un conflicto armado de cinco décadas. A pesar de la firma de los acuerdos de paz entre Gobierno y FARCs a finales del 2016, la seguridad sigue siendo frágil debido a la presencia de otros grupos armados, paramilitares y bandas criminales. El impacto directo en la población sigue siendo muy preocupante.
En los departamentos de Nariño, Meta y Guaviare, los equipos realizan servicios móviles de salud, con un enfoque en la atención primaria, la salud sexual y reproductiva, el apoyo psicosocial a las víctimas de violencia, el fortalecimiento comunitario y la educación a la salud.
Médicos del Mundo también ayuda a las comunidades a conocer y reclamar sus derechos a la Salud ya que es un elemento clave de la construcción de la paz.

WASHINGTON, 13 de julho de 2017 – O Conselho de Diretores Executivos do Banco Mundial ratificou hoje a Estratégia de Parceria de País (Country Partnership Framework – CPF, na sigla em inglês)  para o Brasil. Este CPF cobre um período de seis anos (anos fiscais de 2018 a 2023) e orienta o trabalho do Banco Internacional para a Reconstrução e o Desenvolvimento (BIRD), da Corporação Financeira Internacional (IFC) e da Agência Multilateral de Garantia de Investimentos (MIGA) no país. O CPF tem como base o Diagnóstico Sistemático de País (SCD), análise abrangente do Grupo do Banco Mundial sobre as oportunidades e desafios para o Brasil alcançar a redução da pobreza e a prosperidade compartilhada de forma social e ambientalmente sustentáveis e é resultado  de extensas consultas com os governos federal e estaduais, setor privado, sociedade civil e especialistas acadêmicos. A Estratégia de Parceria para o Brasil tem três áreas principais: consolidação fiscal e eficácia de governo; investimento e produtividade do setor privado; e desenvolvimento equitativo e sustentável. "A nova Estratégia de Parceria para o Brasil apóia o país na medida em que aborda os sérios desafios fiscais enfrentados e estabelece um novo modelo de desenvolvimento sustentável. Continua com forte foco na melhoria da prestação de serviços e inclusão social que estavam no centro da estratégia anterior, mas com uma crescente ênfase em novos modelos de gerenciamento que prometem aumentar a eficiência e a eficácia do setor público, além de salvaguardar o acesso para o pobre", disse Martin Raiser, diretor do Banco Mundial para o Brasil. Dentro das três áreas de foco, o CPF procurará alavancar a iniciativa e o investimento do setor privado, identificando oportunidades para ganhos de eficiência, enfatizando a importância de um sólido quadro regulatório e uma governança forte para avaliar e compartilhar riscos adequadamente. "Nos próximos anos, o setor privado desempenhará um papel crucial no apoio ao crescimento do Brasil. O país continuará enfrentando desafios significativos no caminho do desenvolvimento social e econômico sustentável, e uma maneira de ajudar a enfrentá-los, em um momento de restrições fiscais, é mobilizar uma grande quantidade de investimentos de longo prazo em setores-chave da economia. O sucesso que o Brasil terá nesta importante jornada terá como base a parceria entre os setores privado e público", afirma Hector Gomez Ang, representante da IFC para o Brasil. O CPF mantém o envolvimento na gestão de recursos naturais e em questões de adaptação e mitigação das mudanças climáticas, visando alavancar parcerias em apoio ao papel de liderança global do Brasil nesta área. Finalmente, prevê uma maior atuação do Grupo Banco Mundial em advocacy junto ao público em geral para ajudar a construir consenso sobre os desafios fundamentais para o desenvolvimento que o país enfrenta. Ao longo da duração desta estratégia (2018-2023), o Banco Internacional para a Reconstrução e o Desenvolvimento (BIRD), a Corporação Financeira Internacional (IFC) e a Agência Multilateral de Garantia de Investimentos (MIGA) trabalharão lado a lado para obter resultados tangíveis em gestão fiscal, proteção social, educação e saúde. O CPF prevê uma extensa revisão após dois anos para avaliar as novas prioridades emergentes no início de um novo ciclo eleitoral.Para mais informações: www.worldbank.org/brVisite o Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/bancomundialbrasilAtualize-se no Twitter: http:// www.twitter.com/bancomundialbr Nosso canal no YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/alcregion2010

WASHINGTON, July 13, 2017 – The World Bank’s Board of Executive Directors endorsed today the 2018-2023 Country Partnership Framework (CPF) for Brazil. This CPF covers a period of six years and guides the work of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) in the country. The CPF is underpinned by the Systematic Country Diagnostics (SCD), the World Bank Group’s comprehensive analysis of the opportunities and challenges for Brazil to achieve poverty reduction and shared prosperity in a socially and environmentally sustainable way, and builds on extensive consultations with the federal and subnational governments, the private sector, civil society and academic experts. The Brazil Partnership Framework has three main focus areas: fiscal consolidation and government effectiveness; private sector investment and productivity; and equitable and sustainable development. “The new Country Partnership Framework for Brazil supports the country as it addresses the serious fiscal challenges it faces and lays the ground for a new, more sustainable development model. It continues the strong focus on improved service delivery and social inclusion that was at the center of the previous strategy, but with a growing emphasis on new management models that promise to increase the efficiency and efficacy of the public sector in addition to safeguarding access for the poor”, said Martin Raiser, World Bank director for Brazil. Throughout the three focus areas, the CPF will aim to leverage private sector initiative and investment, recognizing the scope for efficiency gains while emphasizing the importance of a sound regulatory framework and strong governance to appropriately assess and share risks. “In the next years, the private sector will play a crucial role in supporting Brazil’s growth. The country will continue to face significant challenges in the path of sustainable social and economic development, and one way to help address them at a time of fiscal constrains is to mobilize a large amount of long-term investments into key sectors of the economy. The success that Brazil will have in this important journey will rely on the partnership between private and public sectors”, said Hector Gomez Ang, IFC country head for Brazil.   The CPF maintains the engagement in natural resource management and in climate change adaptation and mitigation issues, aiming to leverage partnerships in support of Brazil’s global leadership role in this area. Finally, it envisages a greater role for the World Bank Group in advocacy with the broader public to help build consensus on the fundamental development challenges facing the country. Throughout the duration of this strategy (2018-2023), the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) will work side by side to achieve tangible results in fiscal management, social protection, education and health. The CPF envisages an extensive mid-term review after two years to take account of new emerging priorities at the beginning of a new electoral cycle.  For more information, please visit: www.worldbank.org/brVisit us on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/worldbankBe updated via Twitter: http:// www.twitter.com/bancomundialbr For our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/alcregion2010

En un pequeño rancho en el norte de Argentina se encuentra la modesta casa de Hugo Zerpa. Alejado de todo, Zerpa es, además de agricultor y comerciante, un hombre que se las rebusca para encontrar soluciones innovadoras para mejorar su calidad de vida. Ha inventado su propia antena de televisor, mejorado sus sistemas de riego y su cocina para evitar humo dentro de su hogar, todo gracias a la energía solar. En el medio de la nada, Zerpa avanza a pasos agigantados gracias a que, luego de sus tareas diarias, se dedica a investigar cómo hacer para tener una vida más “conectada” pero sin abandonar ese paisaje cobrizo que lo rodea. Nada de esto hubiera sido posible sin los paneles que se alimentan de día y mantienen la casa iluminada una vez que el sol se esconde detrás de los cerros. Existen grandes y pequeños fanáticos de la energía solar. Desde edificios enteros que funcionan con paneles en sus enormes terrazas hasta convencidos como Zerpa que conocen los beneficios tanto económicos como medio ambientales de esta fuente renovable. Aunque todavía no explotada en su totalidad, la energía solar tiene gran potencial. Así lo demuestra la herramienta “Global Solar Atlas” lanzada hace tan solo pocos meses por el Banco Mundial que, de manera gratuita y basada en los datos disponibles de la web, ayuda a los inversionistas y a los responsables de la formulación de políticas a identificar sitios potenciales para la generación de energía solar en prácticamente cualquier parte del mundo, con solo pulsar un botón.  ¿Tiene mi pueblo natal potencial para la energía solar? ¿Vale la pena invertir recursos en mi ciudad para que los servicios públicos funcionen con la luz del sol? Todo se puede saber a la distancia de un clic. El atlas muestra el potencial de energía solar promedio anual y tiene la capacidad de acercar a las áreas en gran detalle (con una resolución espacial de un kilómetro). También proporciona acceso a mapas globales y regionales de alta resolución y datos de sistemas de información geográfica, permitiendo imprimir mapas de carteles y utilizar los datos en otras aplicaciones.  Más allá del potencial económico para los inversores, esto ayudará a los gobiernos a ahorrar millones de dólares en su propia investigación al proporcionar una plataforma fácilmente accesible y uniforme para comparar el potencial de recursos entre los sitios de una región o de varios países. La energía solar no es una moda. En el año 2015, las fuentes de energías renovables superaron por primera vez al carbón en términos de capacidad de energía instalada acumulada en el mundo.  Según el Organismo Internacional de Energía, se agregó una capacidad sin precedentes de 153 gigavatios (GW) a través de energías renovables. La energía solar fotovoltaica —que incluye minirredes y paneles solares en los techos— representó casi un tercio (49 GW) de esa cantidad. En otras palabras, el año pasado se instalaron alrededor de 500 000 paneles solares cada día en todo el mundo.  Esta cifra va en aumento. De hecho, se prevé que la capacidad mundial de electricidad proveniente de fuentes de energías renovables aumente en un 42%, u 825 GW para 2021, y se espera que la energía solar desempeñe una función importante en el logro de esa meta. Y América Latina y el Caribe no es ajena a esta tendencia. La mayoría de los gobiernos están investigando e invirtiendo en fuentes de energías renovables: la creciente demanda de electricidad, sumada al aumento de las emisiones por dióxido de carbono las convierten en una atractiva alternativa.  Este es el caso de Argentina que busca que el 20% de su energía provenga de fuentes renovables para 2025. Una de sus estrategias más sólidas tiene que ver con apoyar el desarrollo de energías renovables alentando la generación de electricidad a través de fuentes como el viento, el sol, la biomasa, el biogás y agua a través de pequeños aprovechamientos hidroeléctricos. Para ello, el Banco Mundial le ha otorgado una garantía de 480 millones de dólares que impulsará la inversión privada en el sector.  Y ahora tanto los inversores como los pobladores pueden conocer el potencial de la energía solar a través de este nuevo atlas. Nada mal para comenzar un negocio sustentable con el pie derecho.
