About this report
The Survey for 2021 discusses at length how important change in economic policymaking can make a difference in building resilience. Even with the unprecedented economic and social damage that the COVID-19 pandemic brought to the region, it presents an opportunity to build forward better towards a resilient, inclusive and sustainable future.
This 74th issue of the Survey proposes a policy package that seeks to provide universal access to social services, close the digital divide, and strengthen climate and energy actions.
