Abstract

The workforce development (WfD) systems of the seven MENA countries studied in this exercise-Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Morocco, the Palestinian Territories, Tunisia, and Yemen-were evaluated using the Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER) workforce development diagnostic tool and scored similarly in many aspects.

This makes it important, as countries plan for recovery, to undertake reforms to reduce the skills shortages that the previous growth episode exposed.Education systems have a very important role to play in creating the right skills. But education systems in the region fall short of the demands of their economies in two major ways. The first is that despite high levels of enrollment they do not produce enough graduates with the right skills. Students gr
