The 2024 GAP Report®, “Powering Productivity – Scaling High Impact Bundles of Proven & Emerging Tools”, builds on the foundations laid by the 2023 GAP Report by considering how barriers to access and adoption of proven sustainable productivity-enhancing tools resulting from the enabling environment, behavioral factors, and external shows can be tackled by rethinking our approach to bundling.
It will also examine timely means of tailoring bundles based on context and need. The 2024 GAP Report® will feature the learnings from our partner organizations on innovative bundles of tools, science-based policies, socio-economic interventions, and/or dissemination pipelines that creates productivity growth and returns to the producer, society, the economy, and the environment.
