| Tuesday, October 25, 2016 | 12:00PM - 2:00PM | The Vivian and David Campbell Conference Facility, Munk School of Global Affairs 1 Devonshire Place |
The seminar on Prospects for Inclusive Growth by Professors Bourguignon (Paris School of Economics) and Leipziger (George Washington University) will cover not only why we care about inclusive growth and how we define it, but also what it is about global inequality trends that are encouraging globally but discouraging within countries. The seminar will address the links between trade and income distribution and how we can make trade more beneficial to many. The speakers will also address the current state of the world economy in terms of growth prospects, its implications for policy, and its possible ramifications. Finally, the seminar will address the important questions of growth and development strategies and what countries like Canada can offer by way of articulating a practical policy vision and taking leadership in an effort to rescue globalization.
