Abstract

In many parts of the developing world, inequality continues to grow even as rates of absolute poverty decline. This growing divide threatens social stability and progress on global development goals. Inequality can also dampen growth. There is a pressing need for employment and investment strategies that will benefit women, the poor, youth, and other groups who have traditionally been excluded from economic gains. Governments need solid evidence and expertise to develop these strategies, and to equip their citizens for economic changes underway that demand new skills and competencies.
