Sustainability needs to be ensuered in all sectors of economy and at all levels of development action. It would require far-reaching changes in both national and global policies.
at the national level, new balances must be struck between the efficiency of competitive markets, the legal and regulatory framework that only government can provide, the investments to enhance the capabilities of all and the provision if social safety for those with enqual access to the markets. Balances between the compulsions of today and the needs of tomorrow, between private initiative and public action, between individual greed and social compassion are sorely needed for this purpose.
