A critical issue in the Middle East and
North Arica (MENA) region is employment, especially for
youth and women. Young Arabs have some of the highest
unemployment rates in the world, and women are significantly
excluded from the job market. Also given high concentrations
of poverty is some of our countries (Egypt, Morocco, etc.)
inclusive growth focused on creating jobs and economic
opportunities for the poor and dispossessed is a key part of
the agenda. The recent revolutions have only further
highlighted the critical importance of job creation for the
region. Yet the region except in some industries and in some
countries is unlikely to have a comparative advantage in
labor intensive manufacturing Asia. |
