Please join us for an address by Angel Gurría, Secretary-General of the OECD. He will offer recommendations for policy makers looking to develop and implement an Inclusive Growth agenda in order to tackle inequality and promote economic growth.
 
New OECD research suggests that high, and often growing, inequality perpetuates itself to a degree that it can undermine economic growth. Academics, pundits, and world leaders agree that something must be done to address growing income inequality and put growth on a more sustainable path. The OECD supports promoting equality of opportunities through an inclusive growth agenda, but how do societies move from inequality to inclusion? Please join us for this timely discussion with Secretary-General Angel Gurria.
