Programs

CEP promotes the integration of sustainability objectives across three fields: fiscal, monetary and trade policy. Our fiscal policy program seeks to identify and advance opportunities for effective and efficient tax reforms that support competitiveness, job creation, social cohesion, and the sustainable use of resources. Its initial focus lies on Switzerland. The program on monetary policy formulates monetary policy recommendations for sustainability across different countries with a particular emphasis on job creation, poverty alleviation, moderating inequality, resource security and emission reductions. Within the trade policy program, we are concentrating on the impact of services trade on sustainability – notably with regard to meeting basic needs, creating decent jobs, driving innovation and increasing environmental resilience. Further information about each of these programs is available at the links above.
