The World Bank has announced a $40 billion investment plan for Pakistan under a new 10-year Country Partnership Framework (2026–2035), a major shift from its previous five-year strategies. This long-term funding aims to boost key sectors like education, healthcare, clean energy, and climate resilience, supporting Pakistan’s path to sustainable economic growth. In the first phase, Pakistan will receive $20 billion in sovereign loans from the International Development Association (IDA) and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) to finance large-scale government projects.
