Key insights: Kosovo
Kosovo performs close to the global average across every GEFRI dimension. While this provides an appearance of a measure of stability and adequacy among peers, it does not reflect the level of actualized ambition needed for future success. Much progress can still be made. To secure a leading position in education futures, the country should pursue bold reforms, invest in social and economic innovations, and adopt global best practices across all areas to leapfrog ahead.
