Foreword

The focus of this Report is the people of the Arab world, the citizens of the 22 member states of the Arab League. Although the countries constituting the Arab region vary significantly, in area, in population size, in physical and ecological features, and in levels of human well being, they are unified by unbreakable ties. Foremost among these is a common language and a vibrant cultural heritage that today still lives potently in a common cultural context that unites these peoples even when they, at times, go separate ways.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Decent Work and Economic Growth
