2.14. Overall, according to the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), Brazil's economic strategy for the period 2019-22 has been structured into four key areas: (i) improve the business climate and narrow gaps in infrastructure for enhanced competitiveness; (ii) promote national and international integration to boost productivity; (iii) build a more effective public sector that promotes fiscal sustainability; and (iv) reduce social inequality and lack of opportunities by enhancing public policy efficiency. The strategy was to address challenges related to gender and diversity, environmental sustainability and climate change, and innovation and digital transformation.
