Program Overview
Policymakers struggle to generate shared prosperity, as economic growth remains elusive or non-inclusive for too many. Existing approaches of one-size-fits-all development prove unable to meet their economic goals. Pathways to prosperity are continuously evolving. Strategies for Inclusive Growth offers a redesign of economic policy that centers on context-specific approaches to diagnose the economic challenge and to build the capability to implement change.
Strategies for Inclusive Growth is a one-week, on-campus executive education program that rethinks the practice of economic policy, from design to implementation. Led by Professor Ricardo Hausmann and Professor Matt Andrews, the program places inclusion at the heart of economic policy to provide powerful tools to diagnose the root causes of economic inclusion. The program will equip you with new frameworks to design strategies that address constraints and mobilize teams required to achieve shared prosperity.
