And second, the whole society bears the lasting public cost of lost prosperity, lost chances.”1 digital fileenEDUCATIONIDRCECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENTDEVELOPING COUNTRIESENTREPRENEURSHIPGOVERNMENT POLICYYOUTHGOVERNANCEGENDER EQUALITYCANADANORTH AND CENTRAL AMERICASTUDENTSAddress at the cultural event of the "National Student Commonwealth Forum", University of Ottawa, 1 May 2005IDRC-Related Report
