Latin America draws up a future of accelerated sustainable economic growth with equity
Growth is the necessary condition for social and economic well-being, but this postulate can only take one path today: that of equity and sustainable development. For this reason, the immediate future of Latin America and the Caribbean is a mirror into which the rest of the world also looks. The region has the unavoidable urgency to accelerate an increase in its GDP, which this year will be 2.5%, below the global average. This objective, however, also involves a series of crucial challenges such as the energy transition, social cohesion, the fight against organized crime, and territorial integration. These are the underlying reflections that drive the International Economic Forum Latin America and the Caribbean, organized in Panama City by CAF —Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean, the PRISA Group, and World in Progress (WIP).
