📢 CALL FOR PAPERS AND SESSIONS

We are NOW ACCEPTING paper abstracts and session proposals for the 62nd Annual Meeting and Conference on 7-8 November 2024 at the Novotel Manila Araneta City! The theme is "Traversing Innovative Pathways for Economic Resilience, Inclusion, and Localization in the Philippines." Please visit the conference portal for instructions on submission of abstracts and proposals: https://economicsph.org/pes62

The theme mirrors the nation's aspirations and forward momentum. It seeks to explore transformative strategies aimed at propelling the nation towards sustainable development, prosperity, and upper-middle-income status. Local economic development is a critical strategy to enhance innovative solutions to address economic challenges and promote resilience, inclusion, and localization. With increased devolution of powers and resources, LGUs have the autonomy to implement tailored strategies that cater to local needs, thereby driving inclusive growth and fostering economic resilience.

All breakout sessions of the 62nd PES Annual Meeting and Conference will be held on-site at the Novotel Manila Araneta City. The deadline for submission of paper abstracts and session proposals is on 31 July 2024.

Economic Briefing on The State of the Philippine Economy: Is the Glass Half Full or Half Empty?

July 8, 2024

The De La Salle Economic Briefing on The State of the Philippine Economy, organized by School of Economics of De La Salle University, will analyze the challenges that the economy faces in both the short and the long run. After recovering from COVID-19, the Philippines seems to have returned to a positive growth path.

Yet, growth in 2023 at 5.5%, was the slowest in the last decade (except for 2020) and below the target of the Philippine Development Plan 2023-2028 (PDP) of 6-7%.

The PDP’s target for 2024 is 6.5-8%. However, the government has lowered the target to 6.5-7.5% growth this year, and it has recently signaled the need to temper the outlook amid a weaker-than-expected global economy, so the target seems to be 6-7%.

The government nevertheless maintains the objective to attain upper-middle income status (that is, reach US $4,256 GNI per capita) in 2025.

In the eyes of the government, a low and manageable inflation, a labor force with access to more and better jobs, a stronger fiscal position in the form of a lower deficit and debt as a share of gross domestic product, and an increasingly dynamic, innovative, and competitive economy, will contribute to attaining the growth target.

How will the Philippine economy perform in the short and medium terms? What are the major domestic and international constraints it faces?

The De La Salle Economic Briefing will discuss the recent performance of the Philippine economy as well as medium and long-term issues.

Topics to be discussed include short and long-run growth, inflation, fiscal consolidation, investment, the Philippine Development Plan, and the international scenario, among others.

Work environments have considerably evolved over recent years. The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the work culture, with some physical offices closing down and remote work arrangements becoming the new norm. This shift has led workers to rethink traditional office setups and explore the opportunities offered by online platform work.

Generation Z, also known as Gen Z, embodies the emerging workforce and is poised to shape the future of employment. Born between 1997 and 2012, many Gen Zs have entered the workforce, bringing with them unique skills and qualities. Many are tech-savvy and skilled at multitasking, seamlessly managing multiple apps on their mobile devices. They embrace technology and innovation, often using them to their advantage.

A wealth of studies related to it are available in SERP-P.
