The faces and words of this exhibition portray six people who are striving to meet their own challenge of inclusion through their personal efforts, supported by local institutions and the World Bank. These individuals and their communities are overcoming social exclusion that has denied them access to institutions that provide basic goods and services, economic opportunities, and good governance. Members of the World Bank's Social Development staff helped shape and strengthen inclusive strategies in each project example. All the photographic images have been taken from the actual projects described here. The names and testimonies were compiled from project field notes, interviews, and recent conversations with project participants. These stories, one from each of the major regions in which the World Bank carries out its work, highlight many facets of social development including: civil society, participation, gender, indigenous peoples, culture in sustainable development, social capital, institutions, social assessment, resettlement, and post-conflict reconstruction. We thank the people who shared their lives and experiences with us as reflected in these panels. We are grateful to them, and to staff throughout the World Bank for providing insights, expertise, time, and resources to make this exhibition possible.
