Inclusive Economic Development

This paper from the Bond Private Sector Working Group lays out what we mean by inclusive economic development.

It discusses three areas we hope to work on with the Department for International Department to strengthen the impacts of our collective economic development work: the informal economy, women’s economic empowerment and economic development in fragile and conflict affected states.

This paper draws on learnings from both our programmatic experience and policy research and for each area outlines several priorities for action that we would be keen to take forward for discussion and collaboration with DFID.
