More than 60 world leaders will join hundreds of business executives and campaigners at the Swiss ski resort of Davos Monday for the five-day annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, where they will discuss some of the biggest global challenges.

Critics say the summit is a meeting of the super-rich and that it fails to tackle growing global inequality.
