This report provides an overview of key policy developments in education, training and employment in Palestine. With a weak economy and a constant stream of young people entering a similarly weak labour market, unemployment is growing, in particular amongst young people and women. The absorption capacity of the public sector is limited, and the private sector remains too weak to stimulate a sustainable pace of job creation. Moreover, the difficult macroeconomic and political situation pushes many Palestinians to emigrate. As in many countries in the region, the Palestinian technical and vocational education and training (TVET) sector is not attractive to young students. Reform of TVET is underway, with a slow but ongoing review of governance mechanisms.
