Restore confidence in markets and the institutions that make them function.
-
Re-establish healthy public finances as a basis for future sustainable peace.
-
Foster and support new sources of growth through innovation, environmentally friendly ‘green peace’ strategies and the development of emerging economies.
-
Ensure that people of all ages can develop the skills to work productively and satisfyingly in the jobs of tomorrow.
