00:01 My name is Mammodo Nanyale

00:04 Bari.

00:05 I was born in Guinea,

00:07 West Africa,

00:08 which is uh

00:09 one of the poorest country in the world.

00:12 And I was lucky to be sent to school by my parents.

00:16 Public schools in most developing countries,

00:19 including Guinea,

00:20 are not as good as one would expect.

00:23 I remember when we had uh

00:25 a very good professor,

00:26 because we don't have a good one every day.

00:29 The class would be so full that you would have to sit

00:33 on the ground.

00:34 I think it's since back then that

00:36 I decided to think about

00:38 what can we do

00:40 to improve the lives of

00:42 the hundreds of millions of people

00:45 living

00:45 in this type of situation.

00:49 I had this belief that

00:51 strong people

00:52 try to protect themselves,

00:54 but very strong people

00:56 try to protect others.

00:58 So I decided,

00:58 of course,

00:59 I will try my best

01:01 to provide the support I can.

01:03 And the best institution to do that to me in the world

01:07 is the World Bank Group.

01:09 My name is

01:10 Mamuru Ngale Mbari.

01:12 I'm a financial sector specialist

01:14 in the Young Professional Program.

01:19 It's when you love what you do,

01:21 that you make sure that you are the best at it.

01:24 The young professionals program not only attracts the best,

01:27 it also attracts the most passionate

01:30 about the World Bank mission of ending

01:32 extreme poverty.

01:34 When you introduce yourself within the institution as a YP.

01:37 People are not only

01:38 more open

01:39 to guide you at the beginning,

01:41 people also give you more credit in terms of technical background,

01:45 because they know you have been through a very competitive process.

01:48 And also you belong to a network of former YPs

01:52 and you have all those very bright people still serving in the institution

01:56 and willing to share their experience with you.

02:00 The operational program

02:02 gives you this unique opportunity

02:05 to try different things

02:07 than to decide

02:09 what you are more passionate about.

02:11 I don't think you have that in any other program.

02:15 So if you are really passionate

02:17 about helping the poorest,

02:19 to have access to quality education,

02:21 clean water,

02:23 to the basic thing that we have for granted.

02:27 I think there is no other place to go

02:29 than the World Bank.

02:31 The World Bank gives you the resources,

02:34 gives you all the tools to make an impact on people's life.
