Equitable and Sustainable Globalisation. Principles for Global Governance

Evian Group Taskforce Meeting, IMD, Lausanne, February 09, 2012
Summary Report
The world economic system is struggling to adjust to a new post-crisis equilibrium. There is growing recognition that global capitalism is ineffectively managed, both at the international and domestic level, partly at the expense of equity and sustainability concerns. In order to grapple with this broad interaction between globalisation and justice, The Evian Group@IMD convened a meeting of experts, policy-makers, trade negotiators and representatives from business and civil society. The objective of the meeting was to reach a set of conclusions that would help broaden the boundaries of a “global community of concerns.” The discussions were structured along four themes: inequality within societies, inequity between countries, adjustment in the context of finite resources, and principles for achieving global governance. The preliminary recommendation is that confidence building and dialogue remain of essence in a dissonant global environment.
