MPF calls for equalities to be at the heart of economic recovery
As the International Monetary Fund (IMF) began its spring meeting, it released the welcome prediction that the global economy would recover from the Covid downturn. The IMF predicted growth of 6% in 2021 and 4.4% in 2022. However, the IMF also acknowledged that the recovery will be patchy, with poorer countries at a disadvantage.
The MPF welcomed the positive forecast but also called on world economic and political leaders to put the drive for greater equality at the heart of the recovery. The underdeveloped countries that are struggling to deal with Covid will be at a disadvantage when it comes to rebuilding their economies. Many of the world’s poorer countries have majority Muslim populations, and action is needed to ensure that economies in these countries are not left behind.
MPF urges everyone to complete the census on Sunday, 21st March
