It emphasizes how climate risks affect people’s economic prospects and well-being, and why investing in people strengthens resilience. It also highlights sector-specific priorities, including power, water, transport, digital technologies, urbanization, and green value chains. The report discusses how outcomes depend on macroeconomic effects, aggregate risks, and country-specific adaptation priorities.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nPEOPLE IN A  \nCHANGING CLIMATE:  \nFROM VULNERABILITY TO ACTION  \nInsights from World Bank Group Country Climate and Development Reports covering 72 economies  \n© 2024 The World Bank Group  \n1818 H Street NW, Washington, DC 20433 Telephone: 202-473-1000; [Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis work is a product of the staff of The World Bank Group.“The World Bank Group” refers to the legally separate organizations of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Development Association (IDA), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) .  \nWhile believed reliable, the World Bank Group does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability or completeness of the content included in this work, or for the conclusions or judgments described herein, and accepts no responsibility or liability for any omissions or errors (including, without limitation, typographical errors and technical errors) in the content whatsoever or for reliance thereon.
