- In the 1970s OECD countries committed to set clear principles for cross-border investment, based on non-discrimination, transparency and responsible business conduct through the OECD Declaration on International Investment and Multinational Enterprises. Today, the Declaration brings together 52 adherents - including all 38 OECD Members and 14 partner countries. It continues to guide policymakers in facilitating international investment and responsible business conduct, taking into account key considerations such as sustainability, digital transformation and national security.

- As AI assistants, search engines and chatbots become intermediaries between users and information, official statistics face a new usability test: can authoritative public data be found, understood, sourced and used correctly by both humans and machines?
In the second episode of Statistics in the AI Era, OECD Chief Statistician Steve MacFeely speaks with Prem Ramaswami, Head of Google Data Commons, about the practical work needed to make trusted statistics understandable to people and legible to AI systems.
Prem argues that the challenge is not only to publish reliable data, but to make it easier to discover, connect and use. He explains why fragmented datasets impose a hidden “data tax” on analysts, why AI systems need data that is well sourced, auditable and reproducible, and why statistical organisations should start with machine-readable metadata.
The conversation also explores practical AI use cases across the statistical pipeline - includ...

- Description
- AI is changing how citizens, journalists and policymakers find facts. Instead of going directly to statistical databases, more users are turning to AI assistants and chatbots to retrieve, interpret and reference official statistics.
In this first episode of Statistics in the AI Era, OECD Chief Statistician Steve MacFeely speaks with André Loranger, Chief Statistician of Canada and head of Statistics Canada, about what trusted public data means when AI becomes the interface between society and statistics.
They discuss metadata, evolving data quality frameworks, hallucination risks, responsible AI use within statistical organisations, and whether AI should be treated as a new kind of user.
The episode also explores Statistics Canada’s 2030 vision and the mix of skills statistical offices will need to protect quality, transparency and public trust in the AI age.

- Description
- Une main-d’œuvre qualifiée est indispensable à la croissance économique. Mais dans de nombreux pays, les inégalités d’accès aux possibilités d’acquisition des compétences continuent de freiner le développement des individus et des sociétés.
En s’appuyant sur les Perspectives de l’OCDE sur les compétences 2025, cette vidéo explique pourquoi le milieu familial demeure le principal déterminant des écarts observés en matière de compétences. Les adultes dont les parents n’ont pas suivi d’études supérieures ont un niveau plus faible de compétences à l’écrit, en calcul et en résolution adaptative de problèmes et gagnent 11 % de moins, sauf à niveau d’études et de compétences égal.
Dans les pays de l’OCDE, les écarts en termes de compétences tiennent à hauteur de moitié environ aux différences dans les parcours scolaires, 61 % des adultes diplômés du supérieur suivant des formations contre 19 % des adultes n...

- Description
- A skilled workforce is essential for economies to grow. But in many countries, unequal access to skill development opportunities continues to hold people and societies back.
Drawing on the OECD Skills Outlook 2025, this video explains why family background remains the strongest driver of skills gaps. Adults whose parents did not attend university have lower literacy, numeracy, and adaptive problem‑solving skills and earn 11% less, unless education and skills are equal.
Across OECD countries, around half of skills differences are explained by education pathways, with 61% of university‑educated adults participating in training compared to 19% without a degree. The evidence highlights what works: early learning, inclusive schooling, relevant adult training and recognition of skills wherever they are acquired.

This video presents key insights from the OECD Inventory of Export Restrictions on Critical Raw Materials 2026. Restrictions have increased fivefold since 2009, with 16% of global trade now affected. Exposure is highest for strategic minerals with around 70% of cobalt and manganese exports, 47% of graphite and 45% of rare earth elements facing constraints. These measures tighten supply, raise volatility and risk fragmenting global markets.
Presented at the OECD Critical Minerals Forum, the analysis highlights growing use of restrictions across a wider range of countries and the urgent need for co-operation, transparency and diversified supply to support stable global growth.

- Description
- This webinar, recorded on Tuesday, 14 April, explores distributional national accounts—a key framework for understanding how income, consumption, saving and wealth are distributed across households. Moving beyond traditional GDP metrics, it shows how macroeconomic data can be aligned with real‑world inequality patterns to deliver deeper and more policy‑relevant economic insights.
Experts discuss methodologies for aligning microdata with national accounts, addressing technical challenges and micro-macro data gaps. The session emphasises how improved measurement can reveal disparities often hidden in aggregate statistics.
By integrating distributional perspectives, policymakers gain more accurate tools to design inclusive economic strategies. The discussion underscores the importance of transparency, data quality, and innovation in shaping future economic analysis.

The talk frames futures thinking as a critical, designerly practice that goes beyond prediction, using scenarios, worldbuilding and speculative design to surface assumptions, stress test decisions and make long term change tangible today. Drawing on theory from critical design and science fiction, alongside practical tools such as the futures cone, scenario building and the 1-3-10-30 framework, the presentation shows how imagination, evidence and rigour can work together to inform strategy. Through case studies spanning regenerative design, flood resilience, future cities, health and major global events, it demonstrates how futures work can engage stakeholders, explore alternative pathways and support better decision making.

- Global borrowing has hit historic highs. Debt markets have been resilient so far, but growing pressure is testing this resilience further. In 2025 alone, governments and companies raised USD 27 trillion, with borrowing projected to reach USD 29 trillion by 2026.
OECD financial market experts present what is driving today’s record global debt and why the coming years will be critical. Drawing on the OECD Global Debt Report 2026, they explore three major pressures reshaping debt markets: rising borrowing costs for governments and companies; a shift in investor bases from central banks to more price sensitive investors like hedge funds; and the rapidly growing role of technology firms as they tap debt markets to finance capital intensive AI expansion.

- Description
- Generative Artificial Intelligence is rapidly emerging as one of the most debated forces in education today. Tools such as ChatGPT and Claude are widely predicted to reshape how students learn and how teachers teach. Advocates argue that GenAI could democratise access to high quality education, offering personalised learning at scale while reducing administrative burdens for educators. Critics warn of significant risks, from undermining student learning to eroding teacher autonomy.
In this episode of Top Class, we explore the latest emerging evidence shared in the OECD’s Digital Education Outlook 2026. Senior OECD Analyst Stéphan Vincent Lancrin speaks to OECD Editor Duncan Crawford about the latest research, the potential and the risks of GenAI, and what this means for the future of teaching and learning.

- Can alternative pathways into teaching help tackle teacher shortages and strengthen the profession? With traditional teacher preparation programmes struggling to keep pace with demand in some countries, especially in underserved areas, some are turning to non-traditional routes to attract new talent.
Drawing on insights from the OECD paper Alternative Pathways into Teaching: Broadening Access and Expanding Diversity, this episode of Top Class takes a close look at one model - Nexus, an Australian programme that allows participants to earn a teaching qualification while working in schools. Professors Joanna Barbousas and Miriam Tanti from La Trobe University in Melbourne, who work on the Nexus programme, as well as Barbara O’Brien, Principal of Greater Shepparton Secondary College in Victoria, who has welcomed Nexus trainee teachers into her school, explain how alternative pathways work in practice and why others should consider them.

- Data is the lifeblood of the modern economy - powering decision-making, daily life, and the AI revolution. But governing data is full of trade-offs: openness and trust vs privacy and regulation; cross-border sharing vs sovereignty; and timeliness vs quality.
In this episode of Behind the Numbers, host Ashley Ward is joined by OECD Chief Statistician Steve MacFeely to explore why data governance has become a core policy challenge - and what it means for the future of official statistics and AI.
We follow Steve’s journey from Cork to Geneva to Paris; unpack his thoughts on metadata; and find out where he thinks the international statistical community should double down – or back off – over the coming decade.

- Description
- Worrying about the future is quite a popular pastime at the moment. New scenarios, forecasts, and what-if exercises abound. Yet, as many practitioners know, such popularity is cyclical and most foresight efforts to assuage anxieties about the future will crash into the wall of disappointed expectations and the normalisation of relative degrees of turbulence over time. “What do you mean there is no clear goal, nor ironclad means to get there?? What’s the point? In any case, craziness is the new normal.” Perhaps this is a bit like the illiterate person who discovers that the literate person doesn’t have a lock on the truth even though they can read. A similar situation prevails for those who are futures illiterate - they expect foresight to deliver what it cannot. Furthermore, in a world where few can read and write the realm of the written word is inherently limited. Introducing futures literacy, as the competency that is built on the foundation of the diversity of reasons and m...

- With hundreds of sustainability and impact labels in circulation, how can consumers, policymakers and investors identify organisations that really do put people over profit? And why does it matter for the social economy?
In this episode of Cogito Talks, Shayne MacLachlan is joined by Ruben Rebelo from the European Commission and Sofija Rakcejeva from the OECD to explore how labels can do more than just make social economy more visible and easier to support but also help people do better.
Drawing on a recent joint OECD and European Commission report, we will unpack the different types of labels that exist, from those exclusively for social economy entities to broader impact and financial labels, and discuss how they can guide funding, policy decisions and consumer choices.

- Description
- Policymakers, analysts, and the intelligence community frequently confront complex, emerging challenges that test their best analytical techniques. However, individual experts often struggle when it comes to predicting future events - one political psychologist has suggested that, on average, their accuracy is comparable to chance. Crowdsourced forecasting offers an innovative approach to government foresight. Crowdsourced forecasting is the practice of aggregating quantitative predictions about future events or trends from large groups of people. It represents a substantive improvement in predictive work because multiple perspectives help mitigate the impact of cognitive biases and individuals can be trained to produce better forecasts. In this masterclass, Dr. Christopher Dictus from the RAND Forecasting Initiative provided an introduction to crowdsourced forecasting: demonstrating how the process works and how it can be integrated with other foresight methods.

- Imagine a world where rural and tropical regions aren’t struggling backwaters, but breeding ground for fresh ideas, new jobs and sustainable growth. According to OECD’s Rural Innovation Pathways, rural innovation isn’t just a smaller copy of what happens in cities, it’s different: rooted in community‑led projects, adaptive agriculture, renewable energy, social enterprises and creative responses to local needs. https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/rural-innovation-pathways_c86de0f4-en.html
The “tropical economy” vision isn’t pie‑in‑the‑sky, it fits squarely within OECD’s roadmap for leveraging natural capital, innovation and place‑based assets to build resilient, inclusive, future‑oriented rural economies.
In today's episode of our #FromtheGroundUp series, Betty-Ann Bryce (OECD) sits down with Ingo Plöger (CEAL), for a conversation to explore how tropical regions, with abundant natural resources, rich biodiversity and favourable climate, c...

- India's rural areas are developing at an extraordinary rate, and it poses both challenges and extraordinary opportunities to rethink development at a large scale. Across the OECD, over nine in ten households are now connected to the Internet, but in rural regions connectivity still lags behind, with only about 89% of rural households having even a basic broadband connection. https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/2024/11/oecd-digital-economy-outlook-2024-volume-2_9b2801fc.html
India reflects these contrasts in its own way, but the speed of change is remarkable. Over the four years ending in December 2024, internet penetration in rural India surged from 59% to 78%, a jump that outpaced urban growth, which rose from 77% to 90% over the same period. https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/indias-rural-subscribers-to-primarily-drive-arpu-growth-in-fy26-crisil/121130745

Jaana Tapanainen-Thiess revealed how Finland had been building future resilience through the world’s most ambitious whole-of-government foresight process. Participants were invited to explore the forces that shaped Finland’s long-term operating environment - and to discover how uncertainty might have unfolded toward 2045 through four scenarios blending geopolitical shifts, technological disruption, economic transformation, social change, and environmental pressures. But it went beyond scenarios. Jaana also opened the hood on Finland’s unique foresight process. She shared its wide expert participation, bold use of wild cards to challenge assumptions, and insights drawn from nationwide citizen dialogues. She also presented examples of how ministries had already applied the joint foresight to shape policy and strengthen preparedness. Seeing how a government t...

- L’édition 2025 des Perspectives de l’OCDE sur les compétences étudie comment les pays peuvent développer les compétences du XXIe siècle indispensables à la croissance et au progrès social. Elle vise à déterminer comment les différences entre les individus en termes de milieu d’origine et d’études, mais aussi d’opportunités, influent sur l’acquisition, l’utilisation et la mise à profit des compétences clés telles que les compétences à l’écrit, en calcul et en résolution adaptative de problèmes. Les inégalités d’accès au développement des compétences empêchent de nombreux individus d’exploiter pleinement leur potentiel, ce qui pèse sur les performances économiques. Le milieu socioéconomique est un déterminant clé de l’aptitude à développer les compétences recherchées sur le marché du travail, tandis que les disparités entre hommes et femmes semblent influer principalement sur l’utilisation et le rendement des compétences.

- The OECD Skills Outlook 2025 examines how countries can build the 21st-century skills needed to sustain growth and social progress. It explores how differences in background, education and opportunity shape who develops, uses and benefits from key skills such as literacy, numeracy and adaptive problem solving. Differential access to skills development limits the potential of many, thereby constraining economic performance. Socio-economic background strongly influences who builds skills that are valued in the labour market, whereas differences between men and women appear mainly in how skills are used and rewarded. As skill demands evolve faster than policy cycles, investing in lifelong learning and using timely labour-market intelligence are crucial to help people adapt, strengthen productivity and ensure that no one is left behind in a changing world.

Des signes de dégradation apparaissent sur les marchés du travail, bien que le taux de chômage dans la zone OCDE soit resté stable à 4.9 %, le nombre d’emplois vacants étant inférieur à la moyenne de 2019 dans de nombreux pays, tandis que la confiance s’effrite. Les risques entourant les prévisions demeurent significatifs, avec notamment la perspective de nouveaux obstacles aux échanges, la possibilité d’une réévaluation brutale des risques sur les marchés financiers, qui pourrait être amplifiée par les tensions liées aux établissements financiers non bancaires faisant jouer l’effet de levier et la volatilité des m...

- The global economy has proved more resilient than expected this year, supported by improved financial conditions, rising AI-related investment and trade, and macroeconomic policies. However, underlying fragilities are increasing. Labour markets are showing first signs of weakening despite the OECD unemployment rate steady at 4.9%, with job vacancies falling below their 2019 average in many countries and confidence softening. Risks around the outlook remain significant, including the prospect of further trade barriers, a potential sharp repricing of risk in financial markets, potentially amplified by stresses in leveraged non-bank financial institutions and volatile crypto-asset markets. Lingering fiscal concerns could lead to further increases in long-term bond yields, which may tighten financial conditions and elevate debt-service burdens, potentially weighing on economic growth.
