Germans have experienced the most dramatic decline in real wages since 1950 as a result of inflation. This is painful for most people and devastating for those who had low incomes to begin with. 33% of Germans with low living standards have voted for the far right AfD today.

Some reflections on #WBGMeetings and #IMFMeetings - the morning after… We’re nearing 80 years since the Bretton Woods Conference… certainly the world has changed dramatically in many ways since 1944, including via independence movements across former colonies And yet… 1/

"Stop defaulting on development" was a good conclusion by @marina
"We don't need piecemeal reforms, we need a new financial architecture and ending austerity". Strong statements at @IMFNews #SpringMeetings. Thanks to our great speakers and partners at @globalpolicy cosponsored event on solving the debt crises.

Released before the adoption of the Evolution Roadmap, our briefing paper still shows how big the gap between stakeholder aspirations and the agreed reforms is.
#WorldBank reform remains unfinished biz! Main need: accelerated governance reform, shift away from focus on leveraging private financing, mainstreaming of #HumanRights approach, more #transparency & #accountability, & rapid phase-out of #fossil energy financing. #SpringMeetings
