The past year, we have witnessed widening economic and social disparities and inequities and increasing concentration of poverty exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, Brookings experts within the Global Economy and Development program continued to identify opportunities to ensure a more equitable future for some of the worlds most vulnerable populations.

Building on Globals mission to offer innovative and tangible policy solutions for local, national, and global policymakers, we reflect on some of the past years research and convenings. They include strengthening the global financial safety net, promoting good quality jobs in the face of the Great Resignation, assessing the future of multilateralism and global governance, reversing COVID-19s impact on extreme poverty, inspiring the next generation of women leaders, addressing Americas crisis of despair, transforming and improving education systems, harnessing technology for inclusive growth, developing climate policy for sustainable development, and more.

This list is not comprehensive, and we encourage you to catch up on all the latest Global research here and stay on top of the cutting-edge work from our Africa Growth Initiative, Center for Sustainable Development, and Center for Universal Education.
