Zusammenfassung
Although having successfully concluded the National Dialogue, Yemen continues to face a dire economic situation. As the poorest country in the MENA region with a per capita GDP of $1.500, more than 54 percent of the population under the poverty line, and a young, unskilled, low productivity labor force, the Yemeni government needs to address not only demands for more inclusive political participation, but also the economic aspirations of the great majority of the Yemeni population need to be tackled. Without making progress on the economic front a priority, the democratic transition process risks derailment and its leadership a complete loss of credibility which could result in renewed conflict.
Published by the Friedrich Ebert Foundation and the Economic Observatory for Economic Studies and Consulting, “Improving the performance of the budget and ensuring social justice” gathers proposals and solutions to tackle the most urgent economic issues such as the elimination of fuel subsidies, the strengthening of the tax and customs administration, the investment in basic service delivery and infrastructure as well as the diversification of the economic base.
