Country profile
Kosovo performs close to the global average across all GEFRI dimensions. Progress is evident, yet stronger ambition is needed to reach futures readiness among global peers.
Uneven scores across dimensions highlight areas that need targeted coordination. High internet adoption enables broad participation in digital learning and innovation.
R&D investment remains modest, affecting long-term innovation potential. Policy execution and regulatory capacity remain weak, leaving reforms fragmented and hard to sustain. Gender parity across secondary pathways reflects sustained commitment to equitable participation.
Governance and School Access and Gender Parity present a near-term leapfrog opportunity: performance is just below the global average, backed by enough observed data to support forward planning.
Note: Because many indicators are imputed, these findings should be treated as provisional until more reported data arrives.
