dc.description.abstractSurinames economy is recovering from recent shocks but continues to face persistent, overlapping geographic, ethnic, and gender disparities that have entrenched exclusion and deprivation. At the same time, the expected start of oil and gas revenues in 2028 marks a potential turning point for the countrys socioeconomic trajectory. If managed responsibly, these resources could support sustainable and inclusive long-term growth. As highlighted in this publication, sustained efforts to enhance institutional capacity, social reforms, and sustainable infrastructure are essential, together shaping a powerful foundation for inclusive growth and long-term development.
