Learning Lessons: Supporting Inclusive Growth
Asian Development Bank | June 2014
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) introduced inclusive growth in 2008 as one of its complementary strategic agendas under Strategy 2020, along with environmentally sustainable growth and regional integration. The strategy identifies three pillars of inclusive growth: (i) high sustainable growth to create and expand economic opportunities (pillar 1), (ii) broader access to these opportunities to ensure that members of society can participate in and benefit from growth (pillar 2); and (iii) safety nets to prevent extreme deprivation (pillar 3). The institutional challenge is to ensure ADB’s inclusive growth strategy becomes an operational reality.
