Growth
This requires a wide range of
structural policies, from
social protection and active
labour market policies, to
strategic investments in
education, skills, innovation
and physical infrastructure. It
means implementing the
ambitious commitments set
out in the Paris Agreement on
Climate Change and the
SDGs. It means equipping
people to seize the benefits of
rapid digitalisation and
technological change

Investment Work For All
and Resist Protectionism
We must keep building more inclusive global value
chains (GVCs), supporting medium, small and
micro-enterprises by providing better financing
and lowering the costs of regulation; and facilitating
access for Low Income Developing Countries
(LIDCs). It is also crucial to empower our people
with the skills needed to unlock jobs in the most
sophisticated sectors. We cannot continue to base
our key comparative advantage on low salaries.

Fight The Dark
Side of
GlobaliZation
The proliferation of high-level corruption, tax
evasion and tax avoidance scandals have taken
their toll. We need to reverse these trends,
complementing social reforms with policies that
promote transparency and nurture a culture of
integrity. We need an effective and fair global
tax architecture, we need comprehensive and
multilateral anti-corruption tools, we need
instruments to tackle counterfeiting and regulate
lobbying, we need robust standards in
responsible business conduct and good corporate
governance.
