Author Description

Collecting together the summaries of the panel debates along with the full speeches of the world leaders at the Summit, this volume documents the varied regional and national responses to the jobs crisis and reflects a common commitment to stemming its social and economic consequences. It also includes the text of the Global Jobs Pact, a concrete policy response from the International Labour Conference, which was presented to the Summit and has subsequently received strong support from the international community, including the G8 and G20.
