Inclusive growth in swedd countries : when inclusion remains a challenge

Indeed, SWEDD member countries all have high population growth rates, more than 2.5% between 2000 and 2014. Their economies are not very diversified with a predominant agriculture and intensive low-skilled labor. The informal sector dominates in all these countries. The income distribution is inequitable in all countries as indicated by the Gini index for all member countries exceeding 30% in 2014.
