Briefing paperDescription
This report investigates how inequality, climate change, and digital exclusion intersect to shape Asia’s future. Drawing on data from across the region, the report reveals that how the richest 1% and 10% continue to accumulate wealth and power while billions remain trapped in poverty and vulnerability. It features how climate disasters, gender disparities, and unequal digital access reinforce structural inequalities and injustice, threatening social stability and sustainable development. The paper calls for radical policies for progressive taxation, universal public services, gender equality, reducing digital divide and climate justice—to ensure a fairer and more resilient Asia.
