| description |
Since the last Ad Hoc Liaison Committee
(AHLC) meeting, the PA has continued to strengthen its
institutions, delivering public services and promoting
reforms that many existing states struggle with. The quality
of its public financial management (PFM) has further
improved. Education and health in the West Bank and Gaza
(WB&G) are highly developed, comparing favorably to the
performance of countries in the region as well as globally.
Ultimately, sustainable economic growth in WB&G can only
be underpinned by a vibrant private sector. The latter will
not rebound significantly while Israeli restrictions on
access to natural resources and markets remain in place, and
as long as investors are deterred by the increased cost of
business associated with the closure regime. Education and
health indicators for WB&G are impressive and reflect
extensive coverage of the population, but a focus on
improving the quality of these services remains warranted.
Similarly, education investments take time to mature. While
the PA is already implementing an education sector plan that
highlights the importance of improving the quality of
education, the relevance of graduates' skills remains
an area requiring further attention. This report will
therefore reflect on recent growth trends but also on the
future trade regime and employability of the WB&G labor force. |
