PODCAST: Jim Yong Kim: New Program Provides Services to Mexico’s Poor

Jim Yong Kim was just in Mexico to join the launch of its innovative Prospera social protection program, which is the country’s latest innovation in helping connect the poor and vulnerable to social services as well as improve the health and education of themselves and their families. The World Bank Group has approved a $350 million low-interest loan and has added our expertise to partner with Mexico on this ambitious new initiative. In this podcast, Jim Yong Kim is joined by Arup Banerji, who explains why Mexico’s new program could be helpful for countries around the world. | To listen to the podcast, you will need to use one of the following browser versions or higher: Chrome 35, Firefox 28, Internet Explorer 10, or Safari 6.
