This event has been for years a major contributor to international cooperation, every year CEOs, heads of state, and world leaders gather to discuss the major concerns in the world. Treaties like NAFTA were discussed in previous forums and then formalized by representatives from Mexico, Canada, and the US.

In this annual meeting, the WEF is focusing on promoting the cooperation of the key actors (such as business, political, academic and social leaders from more than 100 countries) in order to face the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic and the unfolding of the Ukraine war had brought into the economic situation.]]> 2023-04-19 00:27:25 UTC https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559329251 anavgg https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559519699 According to the liberalism theory, institutions, regimes or other forms of cooperation can overcome the challenges that come within the international system (Spiegel et al., 2013). The World Economic Forum in this case, is promoting cooperation in order to face challenges such as the energy and food crises, the high rate of inflation and the social vulnerabilities in the context of a new system of work, skills and care. Corral, Álvarez and Gidrón (2023), mentions that the main objective of this forum is to engage in dialogues that highlight the importance of understanding and exchanging points of view among all participants, to generate purposeful meetings to develop plans of action on key global issues and to create opportunities to scale innovations that are critical to society. Therefore, showing the the fact that cooperation is possible and also beneficial. ]]> 2023-04-19 02:51:26 UTC https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559519699 tmcmk6d55m https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559530931 The WEF promotes values such as cooperation in the quest to overcome major global challenges, it also emphasizes on the importance of the involvement of the private sector with CEOs and leaders of NGOs taking an important role in the event. Economic growth is seen by the WEF as a tool for global stability with "macroeconomic stability" being one of their main objectives. All these points take place during the yearly event and it is very close to the ideas of IR liberalism, economic growth seen as the driving factor for development, cooperation with mutual beneficial agreements.]]> 2023-04-19 03:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559530931 anavgg https://padlet.com/anavgg/9j2z6tbdbtii7zke/wish/2559545801 Corral, D., Álvarez, C. & Gidrón, M.
