Abstract

The research focuses on selected issues toward making globalization work for workers and firms with regard to inclusive growth and international competitiveness in three Southeast Asian countries: Indonesia, the Philippines and Viet Nam. The program focuses on these countries because they face the most challenges in industrial upgrading and inclusive growth from globalization. Inclusive growth means broad based growth that benefits the widest number of people possible, with special consideration for the marginalized and already disadvantaged. The pursuit of inclusive growth will help to shape the design of policies and programs attendant to a process of economic integration.
