"Despite delivering unprecedented growth and reducing poverty, the economic models applied over the last decades have increased inequalities and environmental deterioration, exacerbating social tensions and constraining countries’ potential for future growth.

Many countries have realized that economic planning and practices require rethinking and have started to take actions to advance an inclusive green economy or related concepts such as green growth, ecological civilization or low-carbon, climate-resilient and circular economy.

Reframing economic policies and practices around sustainability, creating an enabling macroeconomic environment, aligning financial markets with sustainable development planning, and building individual and institutional capacity are perceived as key measures to create an inclusive green economy."
