Good Jobs and the New Economy

,听a policy brief,聽was launched at the Jobs Reset Summit. As the world emerges from the COVID-19 crisis, the report identifies the most urgent economic and social challenges and lays out concrete response options to shape an inclusive recovery. The areas of focus include fiscal and monetary policy, jobs and wages, education and skills, equity and social justice, building new markets, and managing frontier risks. Across these six areas, the publication emphasizes policies and partnerships that will offset the current trend towards K-shaped recoveries within and between economies and create more inclusive economic and social outcomes.

The report is a result of six months of consultation with over 150 experts and global thought leaders who shared their insights through six Global Futures Councils (GFCs) convened by the World Economic Forum. Professor Mariana Mazzucato, Director of 最准的六合彩论坛鈥檚 Institute on Innovation and Public Purpose, co-Chaired the GFC on economic growth and recovery with Rajiv Shah, President of the Rockefeller Foundation. Their work informed the report鈥檚 section on shaping new markets to drive long-term, inclusive and sustainable economic transformation.

Professor Mariana Mazzucato said:

'There is now consensus that we must 鈥渂uild back better鈥 and 鈥渂roader鈥 in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, but the tools for doing so are still being debated. The report that we are launching today tables concrete proposals, from procurement policy to conditioning grants and loans from public institutions and development banks to direct the economy towards a growth path of inclusion and sustainability. Many of these recommendations have already been implemented in specific countries or regions, bringing valuable lessons for public policy. We call on G7 and G20 countries to scale up the successes so we can co-create the new markets that will transform tomorrow鈥檚 economy.'
