Human capital dev’t to sustain inclusive growth – NEDA

INVESTING in higher education for human capital development is an effective way to achieve sustainable inclusive growth, Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio Balisacan said.

Two priority areas that the government should invest in to sustain robust economic growth are “physical infrastructure and human capital development,” Balisacan said in a speech at a forum on Tuesday, noting that infrastructure helps create opportunities and businesses and human capital provides quality labor force.
