The International Financial Flows and the Environment project of the World Resources Institute provides important research and data to nongovernmental organizations and key public and private institutions on international financial flows and public policy options. The overarching goal of the project is to improve the social and environmental performance of public and private international financial institutions by holding them accountable to their investors and to the communities in which they invest. During the grant period, the project will continue its research and analysis work, concentrated on decisionmakers who set the policies and design the investment portfolios that shape global markets and affect the lives of millions. The project will also sustain the programmatic focus on climate change as well as the aspirations and rights of communities affected by development projects. In addition, there will be a focus on new investments in energy infrastructure by public and private international financial institutions and policy reforms at these institutions.
