Kosovo

Although Kosovo’s growth has largely been inclusive, it has not been sufficient to provide enough formal jobs, particularly for women and youth. To continue to grow, Kosovo needs to unleash productivity gains and create more quality jobs. Kosovo’s current growth strategy needs to be focused on addressing the infrastructure bottleneck in energy, creating an environment more conducive to private sector development, equipping its young population with the right skills to make them attractive to employers, and building up governance and the rule of law.
