Sumario: | El Salvador has made significant development progress in the past 30 years. The end of the civil war in 1992 marked the establishment of a liberal democracy and an open export-led development model, which led to a reduction in poverty and inequality. However, with economic growth averaging a modest 2.4% in the years before the COVID-19 pandemic, and productivity growth of 0.1% over the past decade, the post-war model has not generated the economic momentum or the jobs that the country needs. Decisive action is necessary to kickstart more robust, inclusive and sustainable development. Based on a multi-dimensional analysis of development in El Salvador, this report makes four priority recommendations: 1 build the conditions for a productive transformation and modernisation of the economy; 2 increase the quantity, quality and relevance of education; 3 manage water resources better to deliver water and sanitation for all in a sustainable manner; and 4 modernise the State so it can effectively deliver key public goods, from security to education to health, and successfully steer the next stage in the country's development. |

Notas: | OECD Development Pathways - https://doi.org/10.1787/23087358 -- OECD Development Pathways - The<i> OECD Development Pathways </i>series helps developing and emerging economies to identify innovative policy solutions to their specific development challenges. Higher levels of well-being and more equitable and sustainable growth cannot be achieved by merely reproducing the experience of industrialised countries. For each of the countries studied, the series proposes options for action in specific policy areas and at the broader strategic level. It identifies the binding constraints to development across all sectors and proposes whole-of-government solutions -- Book. |
