Economic Reforms, Shared Growth, Sustainable Future

AASS’s economic programme focuses on policy gaps, growth opportunities and bringing stakeholders together to develop practical recommendations.

1. Economic Policy & Public Finance

Examine taxation, public spending, fiscal management and the consistency of economic policies. AASS will bring economists, businesses and government representatives together to discuss reforms that support stability and long-term growth.

2. Trade, Exports & Investment

Identify barriers to exports, market access and domestic and foreign investment. This area will cover trade policy, export competitiveness, value addition and opportunities in sectors with strong growth potential.

3. Industry, SMEs & Entrepreneurship

Study the challenges facing manufacturers, small and medium enterprises and new businesses, including regulation, financing, productivity and access to technology. The aim is to develop practical proposals that help businesses grow and create jobs.

4. Employment, Skills & Inclusive Growth

Connect economic policy with employment opportunities and the skills employers need. This work should give particular attention to young people, women, underserved regions and the benefits of growth reaching more households.

5. Sustainable Sectors & Economic Resilience

Explore growth opportunities in agriculture, tourism, energy, the digital economy and other productive sectors. AASS can examine how climate risks, energy costs and infrastructure affect their ability to grow sustainably
