World Bank Group Timeline

The World Bank Group Archives’ Historical Timeline website is an accessible and user-friendly way to learn about the history of our institution. The Archives is excited to announce the release of a new “subtimeline” focusing on the achievements of the World Bank Group during the tenure of President James D. Wolfensohn (1995-2005). As with other events in the timeline, the Wolfensohn subtimeline features a selection of archival records, photos, audio/video recordings, oral history transcripts, and other resources that illuminate each event.
