Promoting social mobility and equality of opportunity remains a pressing concern for many countries, challenging the very fabric of our society. Hence, understanding the perceptions and representations of equal opportunities is essential to catalyse collective action and support corrective measures.
A survey conducted by the OECD with the support of Amundi across 27 OECD countries delves into the perceptions and attitudes surrounding inequality and explores what truly matters for the population in the fight for equal opportunities.
In this podcast, Romina Boarini, Director of the OECD WISE Centre, reveals the survey’s main outcomes on the different aspects of inequality, the factors that are seen as playing a major role in climbing the social ladder as well as on the role that different actors are expected to play in reducing inequality and the type of policies and actions that could be prioritised.
