In the index of inclusive development of Davos World Economic Forum, Armenia is in the 45th place among developing countries - Guatemala and Honduras - 3.66, having increased by 0.62 points in the last 5 years.

During the World Economic Forum in Davos last week, it was proposed to consider this index as an alternative to the economic development assessment system of the country, which is considered to be the most modern analogue of Gross Domestic Product / GDP, the position of countries in the world. The new system was called the Inclusive Development Index. Under the WFP's vision, it should "inform the public and assist in sustainable and inclusive economic development."

The second group analyzes the inclusion of the society. the country's income stratification coefficient was 36.0, increasing by 0.5%. The poverty rate was 15.5%, declining by 7.6%, according to the society's wealth distribution coefficient, Armenia remained at 58.3 points, dropping by 5.6%, the average income rate was $ 5.7, having increased by only $ 1.0 in five years.

The third group analyzes the continuity and sustainability of the generations. Thus, with adjusted net savings, Armenia has fallen by 3.7% , with the greenhouse intensity of GDP (carbon dioxide emissions per 1 dollar), the country received 43.3 kg, increasing by 3.0%. The burden of public debt is estimated to be 51.8% of GDP, with a 15.3% increase, the Democratic burden is estimated at 44.9%, a 1.5% increase.
