Supporting Sustainable and Effective Social Security System Development in Aging Developing Countries

March 14, 2019 | Last updated: December 10, 2020

Population aging is also visibly progressing in developing countries and is likely to become a more serious policy issue in the near future. Because of the faster rate of aging, developing countries tend to be less prepared for a large elderly population, especially since their fast expanding social security system may neither be adequate nor sustainable. In an effort to promote Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), G20 member countries’ systematic support will be necessary for the development of an effective and sustainable social security system in developing countries. In this regard, G20 members need to (i) support the establishment of a framework for developing countries to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of their system, and (ii) provide technical support to developing countries in developing and implementing medium to long-term frameworks.

      Embedding The Circular Economy In Global Value Chains: Strategies And Frameworks For A Just And Effective Transition

      The circular economy transition along global value chains provides levers that can curb raw material use, preserve biodiversity, and reduce pollution, including the emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs). While the transition to circularity is building momentum, several systemic barriers continue to exist. This policy brief presents eight proposals which facilitate the transition to circular value chains in G20 countries and the Global South. In detail, we recommend: (1) advancing the circular design of products, (2) making international trade and investment policies supportive of circular value chains, (3) enhancing funding for circular economy investments and establishing dedicated financing mechanisms for that purpose, (4) developing environmental, social and governance (ESG) and circularity metrics which drive investment decisions towards sustainability, (5) facilitating a localised transition by harnessing regional resources to shorten value chains (6) ensuring that the transition process is just and inclusive for the Global South by supporting reverse logistics and globally applied extended producer responsibility (EPR) standards, (7) using the public awareness momentum created by the plastics crisis to draw attention to the circular economy imperative, and (8) creating a platform for sharing of best practices in circular policy design, implementation and monitoring.

      Digital Pathways to Resilient Communities: Enabling Universal Internet Access and Utilising Citizen-Generated Data

      Smartization of sustainable development that requires equitable digital channels alters the organisation structures of governments, civil societies, and corporations, resulting in a data revolution. The discourse around data revolution brings multiple challenges. This policy brief argues for two-way communication emphasising universal internet access and citizen-generated data as a solution. The policy brief further argues that while universal internet access requires addressing the problem of affordability, infrastructure, and digital governance as an enabler of the development, the utilisation of citizen-generated data is conditional on the citizens’ incentive, smartphone use, web-based applications, social media platforms, big data transparency, and data governance.
