Slovakia 2030

The project explores selected economic, social and environmental development set in the Agenda 2030 for the Slovak Republic. The last decade was typical with slowdown in global economic growth. The slowdown was caused by deglobalisation trends and increasing environmental costs. Slowdown in global economic growth currently is amplified by pandemic. The project will concentrate on those goals, where the project team has a long-term expertise in analysis and policy formations (Goal 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growth and Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure). The key target of the research include: (i) providing deeper theoretical understanding for Goals 8 and 9 of the Agenda 2030; (ii) delivering complex analyses needed for upgrade of the Agenda 2030 in the post-pandemic period and era of profound technology and social change; (iii) proposing mix of social and economic policies for long-term economic and social sustainability of the Slovak Republic.
