The state of inclusive and sustainable development in uncertain times

Development in Asia and the Pacific is under pressure with the region increasingly buffeted by the travails of the developed world. Growth in the developed world has continued to slow as the euro zone fell into a double-dip growth contraction and growth in the United States remained in anaemic territory. The generalized slowdown across the region in 2012 points to structural issues, such as rising inequality, and energy and infrastructure shortages, due to past policy mistakes and inadequate policy responses. The solution to invigorating the domestic drivers of growth in the region lies in making the development process more inclusive and sustainable.
