In light of the ongoing dialogue between the World Bank Group (WBG) and Development Partners on Trust Fund Reform this is an opportune time to launch the Trust Fund Forum. The intention is to build on the experience of the Consultative Group on Operational Principles (CGOP, Nov 2014-May 2015) and elevate the dialogue at the strategic level to help shape the forward looking agenda, as well as to provide space for discussion on operational topics as reforms are piloted and scaled.
