Author: OECD
Publisher: OECD Publishing

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
Rapid technological changes characterise the most recent phase of digital transformation, bringing opportunities and risks for the economy and society.

It further analyses developments in the foundations that support digital transformation, drive digital innovation and foster trust in the digital age. Toward this end, Volume 2 assesses access and connectivity trends, and the skills needed to thrive in a digital economy and society. It also explores how to push out the digital technology frontier by harnessing the untapped potential of women. Moreover, it considers how technological innovations can help reach net-zero targets and contribute to protecting the planet. Finally, Volume 2 examines digital security developments and presents new trends in media consumption and trust, attitudes toward privacy and control over personal data, and insights into how exposure to additional context influences the ability of individuals to identify the veracity of information on line. A Statistical Annex completes the volume.

OECD Economic Surveys: Belgium 2024
Author: OECD
Publisher: OECD Publishing
ISBN: 9264591745
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Belgium’s economy has been relatively resilient to recent shocks and is expected to continue to grow steadily. Public finances have deteriorated though. In absence of fiscal consolidation, the debt-to-GDP ratio is projected to rise fast. Cutting ineffective public spending and reforming the budgetary framework to increase accountability across governments would help ensure public finances are on a sustainable path. Reforms to taxes and benefits could foster labour market activation and expand the tax base. Strengthening prevention and return-to-work programmes could contribute to tackling the high and increasing take up of disability benefits and better support employment of people with reduced work capacity. A coordinated strategy to reduce administrative costs and facilitate small firms’ access to training could increase business dynamism and productivity. Targeted support for female entrepreneurs could also unlock additional potential of the SME sector. Achieving the green transition requires setting up binding targets and improving coordination of climate policy across federal and regional governments. Easing procedures and improved financing schemes would help deploy renewable energy production. Transparency in future environmental standards with adequate and well-targeted financial incentives would sustain household investment in energy efficiency and electrification, particularly in the transportation and building renovation sectors. SPECIAL FEATURES: LABOUR MARKET, CLIMATE POLICY, SMALL- AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES
