For the Establishment of National Innovation Centres

Developing countries including Kenya have large MSE sectors which are faced with numerous challenges. In the case of Kenya, Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) have been in existence for over two decades and have been a major source of employment, goods and services. Despite this, MSEs face a number of challenges which limit their growth opportunities. Anne Gitonga, a Global Economic Fellow, presented her concrete solution to address these challenges in the Roundtable on Global Economic Fellows Projects in the GES 2011. The Project is currently being implemented.

State Building in Pakistan

Pakistan has emerged as a top priority for the international community, primarily because of the impact of instability there on international security. Many countries have substantially increased aid flows to Pakistan in an effort to improve its governance, growth prospects and indicators of social development.

The Global Economic Solutions

The contributions generated by the GES – useful, imaginative steps in a constructive direction, supported through a broad agreement among leading decision makers from diverse walks of life – are what we label "solutions." This label is obviously not meant to imply that we have exhaustive answers, but rather insights concerning concrete actions that should move us up the ladder of global collaboration. The proposed solutions of the GES are summarized annually in the book Global Economic Solutions.
