DescriptionWBG Pioneers, the World Bank Group’s Internship Program, offers undergraduate and postgraduate students a high impact learning experience at the heart of global development. Participants gain hands on experience in a diverse and dynamic environment, contribute fresh perspectives and innovative ideas, and connect with international professionals working to end poverty on a livable planet. The Development Economics Policy Indicators Group (DECIG) produces quantitative indicators of business regulation through primary data collected by the department on laws, regulations, and the experiences of firms operating in the private sector. Within DECIG, the Enterprise Analysis Unit (DECEA) has developed the Enterprise Surveys (WBES), a survey instrument that links investment climate conditions to firm outcomes such as performance, firm growth, productivity, and employment in client countries. To date, DECEA has assembled a critical mass of firm-level data using ES on more than 200,000 firms across all World Bank regions. WBES also provides factual firm-experience data in support of the World Bank’s Business Ready project. The Unit has developed additional products to meet internal client demands in data collection, indicator generation, and data analysis, including an informal sector survey, innovation modules, and WBES follow-ups to measure the impacts of shocks. The team produces peer reviewed research across private sector development using internal and external data. DECEA is seeking to hire 2 Short-Term Interns for a 12 week term to execute high value, well defined tasks that strengthen survey standardization and monitoring, accelerate research output, and support dissemination around the Enterprise Surveys. The interns will contribute across four streams: (1) building a questionnaire bank; (2) providing research assistance; (3) supporting dissemination activities; and (4) integrating AI quality control into workflows. The work will generate durable assets, improve operational efficiency, and reduce fieldwork risk and cost. Duties and Responsibilities

The World Bank is a vital source of financial and technical assistance to developing countries around the world. Our vision is to create a world free of poverty on a livable planet. We are not a bank in the common sense; we are made up of two unique development institutions owned by 189 member countries: the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). Each institution plays a different but collaborative role in advancing the vision of inclusive and sustainable globalization. The IBRD aims to reduce poverty in middle-income and creditworthy poorer countries, while IDA focuses on the world's poorest countries. Their work is complemented by that of the International Finance Corporation (IFC), Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) and the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID). Together, we provide low-interest loans, interest-free credits and grants to developing countries for a wide array of purposes that include investments in education, health, public administration, infrastructure, financial and private sector development, agriculture and environmental and natural resource management.
