Detailed information on Session IV

The Way Forward

 

The objective of this session is to define a common agenda among the BRIICS countries, other emerging economies and OECD members for future analytical work and policy dialogues.


 

The discussion over the past day and a half should enable participants to identify:

 

 Key challenges emerging from the effects of the globalisation process on the economies of the  BRIICS countries

 Most promising policy tools and interventions to manage this globalisation process

 A research agenda for improving evidence-based policy-making in areas of common interest

In particular, it would be useful to examine ways in which to include these ideas in the work of national and international institutions like the OECD and the WTO.
