Advances sustainable growth, empowering vulnerable groups

Efforts will prioritize sustainable growth through energy transition, expanding carbon-free energy sources, and reinforcing food supply chains.

Efforts focus on creating more opportunities for vulnerable groups, including women, MSMEs, and individuals with disabilities. Focus areas include increasing women’s economic participation, bridging the digital divide among social groups, and supporting MSMEs in adopting smart technologies and integrating into global supply chains.

A new initiative will be proposed to collaboratively address the socioeconomic impacts of demographic changes in the Asia-Pacific region, with an emphasis on mitigation, adaptation, and future planning.
