The global economy is on an unsustainable path characterized by widening economic and social inequities, environmental degradation, and increasing concentration of poverty and deprivation that threaten global peace and prosperity.
The Global Economy and Development program at Brookings equips global, national, and local policymakers with the cutting-edge knowledge and actionable tools they need to address shared challenges and achieve a more equitable, sustainable, and prosperous economic system for all.
