OECD Forum 2013, which kicks off OECD Week 2013 in Paris culminating in the OECD’s annual ministerial meeting, will focus on what is needed to put our economies back on track and how to offer our societies a better future. Promoting inclusive growth, rebuilding trust and fostering sustainability are the three cross-cutting themes of OECD Forum 2013.For more information and to register, contact Marie-Therese Dos Reis (dosreis@biac.org) by May 10.
