Philosophy of Economic Development Wikipedia - Economic development generally refers to the sustained, concerted actions of policymakers and communities that promote the standard of living and economic health of a specific area. Such actions can involve multiple areas including development of human capital, critical infrastructure, regional competitiveness, environmental sustainability, social inclusion, health, safety, literacy, and other initiatives.policymakers communitiesstandard of living economic healthhuman capitalcritical infrastructurecompetitiveness environmental sustainabilitysocial inclusionhealth safetyliteracy IEDC - The main goal of economic development is improving the economic well being of a community through efforts that entail job creation, job retention, tax base enhancements and quality of life. As there is no single definition for economic development, there is no single strategy, policy, or program for achieving successful economic development. Harvard Professor Michael E. Porter - long- term process of building a number of interdependent microeconomic capabilities and incentives to support more advanced forms of competition.
