Driving the Growth of Green Start‑ups in Canada
Sera disponible le 5 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 65
Green start-up companies develop innovative products and services that address environmental challenges for use by businesses and consumers, helping economies become more sustainable, efficient and competitive. However, they face important development challenges surrounding high capital requirements, long development timelines, policy and market uncertainty, complex regulations, and externalities affecting investment into green technologies. Government policy plays an important role in unlocking the potential of green entrepreneurship by helping green start‑ups to overcome these various obstacles.
This report presents the key findings and recommendations from an OECD project to advise the Canadian government on the development of policies to drive the creation and growth of green start-ups based on international policy experiences. It discusses the key policy issues in green entrepreneurship promotion internationally, benchmarks data on green entrepreneurship rates across OECD countries, and provides an assessment of Canada’s green entrepreneurial ecosystem and support policies to identify key development bottlenecks and support gaps. International good practice policies from four other OECD countries (Australia, Denmark, Portugal and the United States) are also analysed to identify transferable policy lessons. A set of policy recommendations are offered for Canada.

Securing the Livelihoods of Informal Economy Workers in Times of Global Changes
Sera disponible le 5 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 260
Informality shapes the lives of billions of workers and their families across developing countries. It is often marked by income insecurity, limited social protection and restricted access to job opportunities, especially for the poorest workers. As the world works towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), improving the livelihoods of informal workers remains a major challenge. Despite important progress in terms of formalisation, the pace of change and its benefits remain insufficient to meet global commitments by 2030.
This report provides a detailed analysis of the informal economy in developing countries. Using data from the OECD Key Indicators of Informality based on Individuals and their Households (KIIbIH), it highlights the diversity of situations within the informal economy. It examines how major global trends, including population ageing, automation and environmental degradation, are reshaping the risks and opportunities faced by informal workers.
The analysis helps inform policy proposals aimed at reducing vulnerabilities and improving livelihoods in the informal economy, with a focus on stronger social contracts, formal job creation, locally led approaches and greater policy coherence.

Mieux investir dans les enfants grâce aux politiques sociales (version abrégée)
Sera disponible le 5 Octobre 2026 à 09:30 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langues: anglais-français
Pages: 56
Mieux dépenser pour les enfants est un impératif social et un choix économique judicieux. Les enfants issus de familles pauvres ou défavorisées ont de moins bons résultats sur le plan scolaire, de la santé et de l’emploi tout au long de leur vie, ce qui a un coût pour les individus et la société et peut accentuer les pressions déjà exercées sur les finances publiques. Pour les pouvoirs publics, l’enjeu n’est pas seulement de déterminer combien dépenser, mais aussi comment répartir les dépenses sociales et les concevoir de manière à améliorer le bien-être des enfants sans nuire à la viabilité budgétaire.
Cette version abrégée comprend le résumé et le premier chapitre qui présentent les principales conclusions du rapport intitulé Spending Better for Children through Social Policy. En s’appuyant sur un cadre d’analyse de l’utilisation optimale des ressources, le rapport étudie comment le niveau des dépenses sociales, leur répartition entre les différents domaines de la politique sociale et leur ciblage à l’égard de certains types de ménages, influencent la pauvreté, la privation matérielle, les résultats scolaires et la santé des enfants, et il tire des enseignements pour les dépenses sociales à long terme. Il montre combien il est important de privilégier des panoplies de mesures cohérentes plutôt que des interventions isolées. Les politiques axées sur l’emploi, comme l’éducation et l’accueil des jeunes enfants (EAJE), les mesures visant à concilier travail et vie de famille et les politiques actives du marché du travail (PAMT), peuvent accroître les revenus des familles et favoriser le développement des enfants. Une aide au revenu adaptée et prévisible reste essentielle, et semble particulièrement précieuse lorsqu’elle est associée à des services de santé, de logement, d’éducation et de garde des enfants accessibles, qui permettent de remédier aux différents facteurs d’inégalité. Il est également crucial d’assurer un accompagnement continu tout au long de l’enfance, en intervenant dès le plus jeune âge et en poursuivant les investissements pendant l’enfance et l’adolescence. En définitive, une utilisation plus efficiente des ressources repose sur des panoplies de mesures qui conjuguent efficacité, équité et viabilité budgétaire.

Neurodata governance
Evidence from innovators for public policy
Sera disponible le 6 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 49
Neurotechnologies are rapidly expanding across clinical, research, and consumer domains, creating unprecedented opportunities for improving medical care, overcoming disabilities, and transforming everyday life. Their operation depends on neurodata, a diverse set of signals and information derived from processing, which can be generated across complex digital, clinical, and business environments and may be highly sensitive for the individuals concerned. A growing number of policy frameworks address the data governance aspects of neurotechnology globally. While indispensable, their overlap also makes compliance challenging, triggers concerns of uneven oversight and hindrance to innovation, while potentially overlooking high-risk uses. To inform coherent and proportionate approaches to neurodata governance, this paper analyses the current policy landscape and company practices, mapping how such data are collected, transformed, and used throughout the data lifecycle. The findings highlight the importance of a responsive, human-centric, and evidence-based policy approach that is adaptable to technological developments and aligned with innovation, growth, and public benefit.

Better Borders for Trade, Traceability and Enforcement
Sera disponible le 6 Octobre 2026 à 09:30 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 94
Trade facilitation, supply chain traceability and economic security are becoming increasingly interconnected as governments introduce new environmental, social and resilience-related requirements for traded goods. Border processes must now support not only efficient trade flows but also the collection, verification and transmission of information on product origins, production methods and supply chains. This report examines how prepared OECD economies are to use trade facilitation systems to support evolving traceability-related requirements while minimising costs and complexity for businesses. It finds significant gaps between regulatory ambition and operational readiness. Fewer than 20% of new environmental and social-related requirements are designed with comprehensive border implementation in mind, while only 55% of environmental lifecycle requirements are addressed. The report highlights the importance of digitalisation, interoperability, inter-agency co-operation and international co-operation to strengthen compliance, supply chain resilience and efficient cross-border trade.

The board lies at the centre of a company’s governance, accountability and long-term strategy, and how well it functions is influenced by its structure and composition. Drawing on firm-level data and insights from the 2025 OECD Corporate Governance Factbook, this policy brief examines how policy frameworks for board structure and composition are implemented in practice. It also identifies areas where more granular information could provide greater insight into how policy measures are applied, particularly in jurisdictions that rely on soft-law recommendations or more flexible regulatory frameworks.

Proceeding report from Madrid conference on the responsible scale of AI in healthcare
Scaling fast while doing no harm
Sera disponible le 7 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 39
Artificial intelligence is already transforming healthcare, by helping clinicians reduce administrative burden, improving diagnostic safety, and supporting population health. Yet despite growing investment and enthusiasm, most health systems are still struggling to translate AI's promise into measurable improvements. Bringing together 142 experts from 34 countries and 35 partner organisations, the Spanish Ministry of Health and OECD co-hosted a conference on the responsible scale of AI in healthcare. The conference sought to move the conversation beyond whether AI should be adopted and focus instead on how it can be scaled safely and effectively. The central message was clear: successful AI adoption relies on facilitating trust, strengthening foundations, and developing sustainable economic models for the digital age. This proceedings report summarises the outcomes from the conference. At its heart is the Expert-Led Madrid Action Plan (EL-MAP), a practical framework comprising ten priority actions to guide governments, industry, healthcare leaders, and civil society in accelerating the effective scale of AI in health. For policymakers, innovators, health leaders, and anyone interested in the future of healthcare, this report offers an important and timely vision for how international collaboration can ensure AI delivers better health, better care, and better value for all.

UK regions in the global economy
Sera disponible le 8 Octobre 2026
Langue: anglais
Pages: 69
This paper analyses the first comprehensive estimates of subnational Trade in Value Added (TiVA) indicators for the United Kingdom, developed by the OECD with support from the UK Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade (BIST) and the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Based on harmonised Supply-Use and Input-Output tables and aligned with the OECD TiVA database, these estimates enable new insights into global value chain (GVC) integration across the 12 UK TL2 regions (equivalent to ITL1 regions). Using 2019 as a reference year, the paper shows that UK regions are deeply integrated into both domestic and global value chains. Only 58% of the value added embodied in exports is generated locally, with 22% sourced from other UK regions and 20% from abroad. Regions participate both directly and indirectly, with one-third of UK regions participating in GVCs indirectly by providing more intermediate inputs to other UK regions for subsequent exports. EU27 and North America are key partners for UK regions. EU27 suppliers are the main source of foreign inputs for export production across most regions. Outside the EU27, the United States is the leading input supplier, while the People’s Republic of China is the main downstream user of UK regional value added.

Measuring global value chain participation in UK regions

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 60
This paper outlines alternative approaches to constructing subnational Supply and Use Tables (SUTs) for the United Kingdom, combining microdata with publicly available national and regional statistics. It introduces an experimental framework to analyse how UK regions are directly and indirectly integrated into the global economy. Comprehensive regional SUTs and Input-Output Tables (IOTs) have so far been unavailable for the United Kingdom, limiting the analysis of regional economic linkages and global integration. Developing such tables is important for both policy and methodological purposes, as they support the assessment of regional production structures and inform targeted policy design. The resulting dataset covers 12 UK regions and an additional “extra-regio” aggregate, disaggregated into 50 industries and products over the period 2017–21. Estimates are derived by combining different official UK microdata, integrating subnational value added and consumption data with firm- and household-level information. The derived tables are incorporated into the OECD’s Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) framework, enabling the first set of subnational Trade in Value Added (TiVA) indicators for the 12 UK TL2 regions (equivalent to ITL1 regions).

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: allemand
Pages: 57
Laut der Studie The Economic Case for Pandemic Preparedness and Response sind Pandemien selten, aber schwere Schocks für die Gesundheit der Bevölkerungen und Volkswirtschaften. Die Häufigkeit und die Intensität kleinerer Ausbrüche haben in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten zugenommen, und das Risiko, dass sich lokale Ausbrüche zu globalen Pandemien ausweiten, ist nach wie vor hoch. In diesem Bericht werden die möglichen Auswirkungen künftiger Pandemien auf die öffentliche Gesundheit, die Resilienz der Gesundheitssysteme und die Wirtschaft in 51 OECD-, EU/EWR- und G20-Ländern untersucht. Dabei werden fortgeschrittene epidemiologische und ökonomische Modellierungstechniken und szenariobasierte Analysen zugrunde gelegt. Der Bericht bewertet, inwieweit acht nicht pharmazeutische Interventionen (NPI) zur lokalen Infektionsprävention und -bekämpfung die gesundheitlichen und wirtschaftlichen Folgen in den frühen Phasen fünf verschiedener Ausbruchsszenarien abmildern können, bevor pharmazeutische Interventionen oder Impfstoffe in ausreichender Menge zur Verfügung stehen.
Die zentrale Botschaft ist klar: In den OECD-Ländern sind Investitionen in Höhe von durchschnittlich knapp 6 USD-KKP pro Kopf und Jahr in die Pandemievorsorge und -reaktion eine kluge Investition in die öffentliche Gesundheit und die wirtschaftliche Resilienz. Durch die frühzeitige Umsetzung von NPI, wie z. B. Händehygiene, das Tragen von Masken und Maßnahmen zur physischen Distanzierung, lassen sich mehr Leben retten und wirtschaftliche Verwerfungen begrenzen. Wird verspätet gehandelt, kann es notwendig sein, Ausgangsbeschränkungen einzuführen, um die Krankheitsübertragung unter Kontrolle zu bringen. Für eine zeitnahe und wirksame Reaktion sind robuste Krankheitsüberwachungs- und Bevorratungssysteme unerlässlich.
Die auszugsweise deutsche Übersetzung umfasst die Titelei, die Zusammenfassung und das Kapitel 1 über die Erkenntnisse zu den gesundheitlichen und wirtschaftlichen Auswirkungen der COVID-19-Pandemie und den Effekten von nicht pharmazeutischen Interventionen.

SME Policy Index for Western Balkans and Türkiye 2026 – Economy Profile for Serbia
Sera disponible le 8 Octobre 2026 à 09:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 282
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) underpin the economies of the Western Balkans and Türkiye, accounting for the majority of employment and value added. Their competitiveness and resilience are therefore central to sustainable growth and economic convergence with the European Union.
Yet SMEs operate in an increasingly demanding environment shaped by global uncertainty, the digital and green transitions, and demographic change. While these shifts create opportunities, they also expose persistent weaknesses—including fragmented policy frameworks, limited greening, uneven digital adoption and skills gaps—that constrain firm-level resilience and adaptability. Addressing these challenges requires policies that not only support growth, but strengthen enterprises’ capacity to anticipate shocks, adapt to changing market conditions and sustain performance over time.
The seventh edition of the SME Policy Index for the Western Balkans and Türkiye provides a comprehensive assessment of SME policy progress since 2022, based on the OECD’s established methodology and aligned with OECD and EU good practices. It identifies achievements, remaining gaps and actionable recommendations to strengthen policy effectiveness.
This economy profile assesses performance across 13 policy dimensions and examine progress through four thematic policy clusters. A companion regional profile synthesises shared trends, common challenges and cross-cutting priorities across the seven participating economies.

Open Government Review of Australia
Strengthening Civic Space and Participation

Pages: 207
Australia has high levels of public trust, an active civil society and a strong tradition of democratic innovation. Yet, like many OECD countries, it faces trends ranging from social fragmentation to evolving patterns of civic engagement. In this context, strengthening the relationship between citizens and public institutions is essential to sustain democratic resilience.
This Open Government Review examines how Australia can further strengthen the conditions, institutions and practices that enable people to express their views, engage with government and help shape the policies that affect their lives. Drawing on evidence from Australia and international experiences, the review finds that the main challenge in Australia is to use participation more strategically and coherently, and to embed it as a core governance function.
The review includes recommendations to help Australia respond to new trends and seize opportunities to strengthen democratic resilience through protecting civic space and promoting meaningful citizen participation. By enhancing both the safeguards and opportunities for individuals to engage in public life, these measures can help foster trust and social cohesion and improve the quality and responsiveness of public action.

Langues: français-anglais
Pages: 135
Les gouvernements démocratiques sont confrontés à des pressions croissantes liées aux progrès technologiques rapides, à l’instabilité géopolitique, aux défis environnementaux et à la montée des attentes des citoyens. Répondre à ces enjeux nécessite des transformations profondes du fonctionnement de l’administration publique. Pourtant, les institutions et les processus peinent à s’adapter suffisamment rapidement, contribuant au maintien de faibles niveaux de confiance envers les pouvoirs publics. De plus en plus, et malgré les réformes engagées, l’action publique apparaît comme « bridée », les pouvoirs publics peinant à dialoguer avec la population, à s’adapter et à remplir leur mission au rythme et à l’échelle nécessaires.
Débrider l’action publique met en évidence la manière dont les gouvernements relèvent ces défis. S’appuyant sur de nouvelles données de l’OCDE couvrant 40 pays, ce rapport met en lumière des pratiques de pointe dans des domaines tels que les technologies numériques et l’intelligence artificielle, la participation citoyenne, les capacités de la fonction publique, la réglementation, la commande publique et les finances publiques.
Ensemble, ces pratiques dessinent une vision cohérente d’une action publique « débridée » : plus simple, plus agile, plus proactive et plus proche des citoyens. Ce rapport propose un programme d’action pour concrétiser cette vision, ainsi qu’une nouvelle approche permettant de mesurer dans quelle mesure les réformes produisent des changements réels dans cette direction. À un moment charnière, Débrider l’action publique offre une boussole pour renforcer la gouvernance démocratique, améliorer l’impact des politiques publiques et des services publics, et restaurer la confiance.

OECD Guidance on Reducing Poverty and Inequalities through Development Co‑operation
Sera disponible le 12 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 227
Extreme poverty has fallen sharply worldwide in recent decades, yet progress has slowed and gains have been uneven, with inequalities persisting or growing. Overlapping and complex crises are compounding these challenges, placing additional pressures on those furthest behind. Meanwhile, shrinking development co-operation budgets and competing priorities risk sidelining poverty and inequalities from the development agenda, even as the case for keeping them central grows stronger.
This Guidance clarifies how poverty and inequalities are deeply intertwined: reducing one accelerates progress on the other. It recognises the structural causes and multidimensional nature of these issues and how they shape people’s resources, rights, opportunities and resilience, cutting across income, gender, racial and other lines. It presents actions for development partners to sharpen the poverty and inequality focus and impact of their development co-operation, drawing on evidence and good practices from across the development community. It outlines approaches to embed these goals in strategic planning and design, target and mobilise resources for those who need them most, foster equitable partnerships, and strengthen data, monitoring and evaluation systems for greater accountability and results. The Guidance serves as a resource for strengthening development co-operation’s contribution to more equitable, rights-based, people-centred societies that leave no one behind.

Economic Valuation of Chemicals‑Related Health Effects
A Practical Guide to Quantifying Morbidity Effects in Environmental Cost‑Benefit Analysis

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 107
While chemicals play an important role in daily life, they must be soundly managed to limit risks to human health and the environment. Cost-benefit analysis is often used by regulators to compare the societal benefits of regulating chemicals against the costs of policy implementation. However, data on the economic benefits of potential policies are often lacking.
Across ten health effects, this report quantifies the monetary benefit of reducing non-fatal impacts from exposure to chemicals, which include the physical, emotional, social and economic burden. It does so by synthesising evidence from 96 surveys collected across 116 000 respondents in 28 countries as part of the OECD Surveys on Willingness-to-pay to Avoid negative Chemicals-related Health Effects project. It subsequently includes guidance for the use of the derived estimates in cost-benefit analysis as well as their transfer to non-surveyed countries and policy contexts. The estimates presented in this report are intended to improve the basis for assessing chemicals management options and environmental policies.

In the mining sector, government revenue depends on mineral products being priced and measured accurately. This can be especially challenging for minerals such as copper, which have economically relevant characteristics that may vary and significantly affect pricing. The schedule presented in this report applies the mineral pricing framework – outlined in the joint OECD/IGF work Determining the Price of Minerals: A transfer pricing framework – to identify the primary economic factors influencing the price of copper. It applies the Comparable Uncontrolled Price method and aims to ensure that developing countries are able to tax copper exports appropriately.

Mapping Skill Shortages in OECD Countries
New Evidence from the Updated Skills for Jobs Database

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 72
Although labour shortages have eased from their post-pandemic peak, employers continue to report difficulties hiring workers with the right skills. These skill imbalances are expected to intensify. Population ageing will shrink the workforce, while digitalisation, AI and the green transition are rapidly reshaping skill needs. Addressing the gap between the skills employers need and those workers possess requires timely and accurate data. The OECD Skills for Jobs database provides a harmonised and objective measure of skill imbalances in 38 countries. The results reveal persistent and widespread occupational imbalances across OECD labour markets. Shortages are particularly pronounced in high-skilled occupations, such as ICT specialists, science and engineering professionals, health professionals, and teachers. By contrast, lower-skilled occupations are more frequently characterised by labour surpluses. These patterns highlight the growing polarisation of labour market pressures and underline the urgency of policies aimed at improving skill matching and workforce adaptability.

Este informe analiza las oportunidades y los desafíos del mercado de capitales de la República Dominicana, y cómo esto puede apoyar al país para acceder a un mejor financiamiento para un desarrollo más inclusivo y sostenible. Aunque la economía dominicana ha mostrado un notable crecimiento y estabilidad, el acceso a financiamiento asequible y suficiente sigue siendo limitado. El sector financiero ha demostrado resiliencia, con un sistema bancario sólido pero que aún está algo concentrado, y con altos costos de financiamiento.
En este contexto, un mercado de capitales poco desarrollado limita las opciones de acceso a crédito para empresas e inversores locales. Para abordar estas brechas, el informe plantea recomendaciones para apoyar el desarrollo a largo plazo del mercado de deuda pública, explorar instrumentos de deuda innovadores y fortalecer los mercados de bonos corporativos y de acciones, en particular para las MIPYMES y los fondos de pensiones, cuya participación sigue siendo reducida.
Asimismo, destaca la necesidad de simplificar la regulación, ampliar la oferta de productos de inversión, diversificar la base de inversores, mejorar el acceso transfronterizo y aprovechar las oportunidades de una integración regional más profunda.

Langue: anglais
Pages: 70
Sharing data across organisations and jurisdictions generates economic and social value, increasingly so as progress in artificial intelligence (AI) depends on access to high-quality, domain-specific data. Data spaces promise trusted multi-party data sharing under federated governance, yet, despite significant public investment, few have reached operational and financial viability. Drawing on the analysis of more than 200 initiatives, including case studies of successes and failures, and an OECD Expert Workshop, the report examines where data spaces provide value that alternative data-sharing mechanisms cannot. They best suit settings with three or more parties, limited trust in any single intermediary, collective value creation, and ongoing governance needs. Governance design, interoperability, and trust-enhancing mechanisms underpin this value, but many face a bootstrapping problem, which eight policy considerations help address. The report supports OECD work on data free flow with trust (DFFT) and the OECD Recommendation on Enhancing Access to and Sharing of Data.

Langue: anglais
Pages: 193
Advanced STEM skills are essential for the responsible use of technology. This report defines them as disciplinary, interdisciplinary, transversal and professional competence applied to complex scientific and technological problems and responsible innovation, including ethical, societal and environmental implications. Quantum technologies and artificial intelligence illustrate skills needs, yet determining whether these skills are in short supply is difficult. The report identifies five bottlenecks: entry into STEM higher education; persistence and completion; progression to advanced levels; career entry and effective skills use; and skills renewal across working life. Building on this framework, four policy priorities address entry, persistence and completion; progression and skills renewal; programme renewal; and career entry and the effective use and continued development of advanced STEM skills. Examples were analysed through the OECD Mutual Learning Group on Advanced STEM Skills in Higher Education, involving researchers, policymakers and higher education practitioners from a wide range of countries. The report’s eight recommendations address constraints at individual, institutional, employer and system levels, highlighting that implementation requires collaboration across policy portfolios. The report offers a framework for strengthening the development and use of advanced STEM skills and informs the implementation of the European Union’s STEM Education Strategic Plan: Skills for Competitiveness and Innovation.

Accelerating Infrastructure Permitting
From Streamlining to Structured Bargaining
Sera disponible le 27 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 102
Infrastructure is essential for economic growth, the climate transition and resilience. Yet, in many countries, infrastructure projects take years to move from planning to construction, with permitting processes often contributing to delays, higher costs and uncertainty. These challenges are becoming more pressing as governments seek to rapidly expand energy, transport and other strategic infrastructure.
This report examines how permitting systems affect the delivery of infrastructure projects and explores how governments can accelerate decision making while maintaining environmental and social safeguards. It looks at how countries are attempting to streamline permitting procedures and identifies emerging approaches to better manage competing interests and trade-offs during the project development process.
The report aims to support policymakers and practitioners working to deliver infrastructure more efficiently and predictably while maintaining trust and accountability in public decision making.

The Geography of Choice
Mapping Everyday Lives across Rural Regions
Sera disponible le 31 Octobre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 80
Rural regions are being reshaped by demographic change, digitalisation, the green transition and shifting geopolitical priorities. Yet these transformations affect rural places differently, and robust international comparative evidence is often constrained by geographical definitions that are either too broad, too fragmented or based on administrative boundaries that do not reflect how people live, work and access services.
This report examines how rural territories can be organised into internationally comparable functional areas. It assesses three approaches - Labour Market Areas, France’s Bassins de Vie, and Functional Rural Areas combined with Functional Urban Areas - against common criteria and quantitative measures. It also draws on mobile phone data to examine whether the resulting areas capture daily mobility patterns beyond commuting.
The findings show that all three approaches capture meaningful functional relationships and offer distinct advantages depending on the analytical purpose, geographical scale and available data. The report is intended to inform further methodological development and complement, rather than replace, national rural delineations and definitions, which remain essential for domestic policy design.

Admitting Labour Migrants
Making Migration Management Work
Sera disponible le 2 Novembre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 180
Ensuring that labour migration pathways function effectively is a persistent policy challenge for OECD and EU countries. The decision on whom to admit as labour migrants, and under what conditions must balance labour market needs against broader social and political considerations. This report provides a comparative overview of how OECD and EU countries regulate the admission of foreign nationals for work, examining the tools used to verify recruitment need – labour market tests, shortage occupation lists, and numerical limits – alongside eligibility criteria, acceleration mechanisms such as priority processing and recognised employer schemes, and the platforms providing public information on labour migration pathways to employers and workers. It concludes with a review of the administrative factors that shape access to these pathways in practice: processing times, fees, and documentary requirements. By benchmarking how these tools are designed and applied across 220 labour migration pathways in 41 OECD and EU countries, the report supports policymakers in analysing the trade-offs of specific admission policy choices and designing more effective labour migration systems that can meet their objectives

Costa Rica’s Graduation from Official Development Assistance
Managing the Transition Beyond Aid
Sera disponible le 5 Novembre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 110
Costa Rica’s graduation from official development assistance (ODA) eligibility marks an important development milestone. This report, the first pilot undertaken under the strengthened graduation process of the OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC), assesses Costa Rica’s financial exposure and remaining vulnerabilities, identifies national priorities through consultations with public institutions, and examines how its principal development partners envisage adapting their support.
The report finds that Costa Rica’s direct financial exposure to ODA graduation is limited. The main risk lies instead in the potential erosion of highly valued forms of co-operation, particularly technical assistance, policy dialogue, and knowledge transfer. It concludes by providing recommendations to DAC members on how to better align their transition support with Costa Rica’s national priorities, helping ensure a smooth and sustainable transition beyond ODA.

Measuring Unsheltered and Hidden Homelessness in Germany
Lessons from OECD Countries
Sera disponible le 5 Novembre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 56
Official statistics often underestimate the extent and diversity of homelessness and housing exclusion. Methodological challenges make some types of precarious living situations particularly difficult to identify and count, notably people who are unsheltered and those temporarily staying with family or friends because they have no alternative, often referred to as “hidden homelessness”. As a result, key groups may be absent from official statistics, limiting governments’ ability to understand the full extent of homelessness, monitor trends, and design effective policy responses.
This report addresses these measurement gaps by examining how countries across the OECD measure unsheltered and hidden homelessness. It first reviews the methodological challenges associated with measuring these forms of homelessness and analyses the measurement approaches adopted in different national contexts. Drawing on international experience, the report highlights key methodological choices, strengths, limitations and trade-offs of different methods to capture these forms of homelessness. Building on these findings, the report proposes practical recommendations to strengthen the measurement of unsheltered and hidden homelessness in Germany, while identifying broader lessons for OECD governments seeking to improve the measurement of homelessness and housing exclusion.

Advances in nowcasting the growth rate of the ICT sector
Sera disponible le 5 Novembre 2026 à 06:00 CET
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 54
The information and communication technology (ICT) sector is a key driver of modern economies, yet official measures of ICT value added are published with multi-year lags, limiting their usefulness for real-time monitoring. This paper extends the OECD's machine learning nowcasting model for ICT sector growth by refining its Google Trends feature set, updating it using the latest OECD Structural Analysis (STAN) Database, and introducing a selective pooling strategy based on countries' structural positions within global ICT value chains, derived from Trade in Value Added (TiVA) data. Results show that pooling countries with similar value-chain linkages improves prediction accuracy relative to global pooling. The findings suggest that the pooling strategy should be treated as a model-selection problem informed by economic structure, offering an empirically grounded framework for tracking ICT sector growth.

Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 140
The ocean economy reached a record USD 3 trillion in 2025, generating expanding opportunities for economies and communities worldwide. Yet intensifying pressures on marine ecosystems and resources are threatening ocean health and testing the capacity of existing governance frameworks. Harnessing the ocean’s economic potential while safeguarding the natural systems on which it depends requires continuous evidence, more coherent policies and effective international co-operation. The Ocean Economy at a Glance provides an original integrated assessment of the ocean as an economic, environmental and governed space. Drawing on original OECD indicators, it examines the ocean’s contribution to food production, transport, energy, minerals, tourism, employment and innovation, alongside its essential roles in climate regulation, biodiversity and scientific discovery. The publication also assesses the policy and regulatory instruments available to governments, developments in ocean finance, and the benefits of closing regulatory and enforcement gaps. Using international data sources, it further sheds light on the “dark ocean economy”, including illicit activities at sea. The findings provide governments with a robust evidence base for building a more productive, innovative, sustainable, resilient and well-governed ocean economy.

Economic Connectivity and Development along the Lobito Corridor
A Policy Framework
Sera disponible le 19 Novembre 2026
Auteur: OCDE
Langue: anglais
Pages: 100
The Lobito Corridor links Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia to global markets through the Atlantic port of Lobito. Built on modernised rail infrastructure, it aims to improve trade efficiency, diversify export routes and strengthen regional integration. Taking advantage of the increasing demand for critical minerals, the corridor could reinforce the region’s role in global supply chains while supporting broader trade, investment and economic diversification.
This report assesses how increased mining and transport activity along the corridor can translate into durable economic growth. It analyses how rail and logistics integration may shape freight demand and corridor performance to 2050, and identifies risks which may alter the overall contribution of the corridor to local economies (spanning base erosion and profit shifting in mineral supply chains, adverse impacts derived from the construction and operation of the corridor, and risks in the mineral supply chains).
Bringing together tax, transport and responsible business conduct perspectives, the report identifies the conditions needed to secure fair revenues, strengthen supply chain resilience and convert infrastructure investment into long term, inclusive growth.
