Dear Hon. Jens Joel,
On behalf of the Parliamentary Network on the World Bank & International Monetary Fund, I would
like to request your participation as part of the delegation of Parliamentary Network members to the
World Bank and IMF Annual Meetings from 3 to 6 October 2016 in Washington D.C.
As a member of the delegation, you will have full accreditation to attend the 2016 Annual Meetings
of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank Group. A parliamentary workshop with the
opportunity to discuss with senior IMF and World Bank staff on topics including building political for
translating the SDGs into laws that respond to country specific poverty reduction priorities;
eliminating unemployment with a particular focus on youth; financial stability; and climate change
among other topics will be organized during that time.
The International Secretariat in Paris will prepare the delegation schedule and send it to you in due
time. Sessions will be held in English. Please note that you would be responsible for your own travel
and accommodation costs, including transfers from and to the airport. It is important that you make
your arrangements early as hotels fill up quickly at that time of the year. Should you be unable to
attend this year’s Annual Meetings, we would be happy to welcome your designated representative.
The deadline for confirmations is 8 September 2016.
I invite your office to contact our Coordinator,
