World Economic Forum Jobs Reset Summit: Building Back Broader in Economic Recovery
· The second Jobs Reset Summit made progress on major reskilling, education and job quality initiatives, including the launch of SkillsLink and the Partnership for New Work Standards.
· A new alliance to address social justice through business action was launched, while 58 multinational companies aligned on their commitments to a racial justice initiative

· The Chief Economists Outlook launched at the Summit forecast a return to over 5.5% global growth within 2021, but coupled with concerns about economic scarring and a disconnect between asset markets and the real economy
The June edition of the Chief Economists Outlook comes out amid improving aggregate recovery momentum, yet in a profoundly uncertain environment with widely diverging trajectories. Across countries, differentiated paths are opening up, determined to a large extent by access to vaccines and the financial resources available to governments. This edition of the Chief Economists Outlook explores the most important forces supporting the recovery as well as important developments and risks that could yet delay or derail it. It draws on the collective views and individual perspectives of a group of leading Chief Economists, through the Forum’s Chief Economists Survey and consultations with the Chief Economists Community.
