Arab States could reap a major ‘demographic dividend’ if they can convert their advances in education into employment opportunities for youth, says the 2013 Human Development Report.
But a failure to accelerate job growth could further exacerbate social and economic tensions in the region, the Report warns.
The 2013 Human Development Report— The Rise of the South: Human Progress in a Diverse World—is being launched in Mexico City today with United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Administrator Helen Clark and Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto.
The Report analyses more than 40 developing countries that have made rapid human development gains in recent years through sustained public investment in education, health and other social programs and strategic engagement with the world economy.
