GPRBA is a global partnership program in the World Bank Group. Through a diverse portfolio of projects, GPRBA funds, designs, demonstrates and documents results-based financing approaches (RBF) to improve the delivery of basic services in developing countries. Large development projects too often fail to include the very poor, and GPRBA is dedicated to making sure the poor and marginalized have access to electricity, water, sanitation, health care, education and other basic services necessary for growth and opportunity.
