Economy News _ Baghdad
The Ministry of Planning announced new indicators that showed maintaining the pace of population increase in the country at a rate of one million people annually.
Meanwhile, the International Labor Organization confirmed that Iraq has not yet benefited from the demographic gift in employing youth and the labor force due to the weak ability to generate increasing jobs.
According to the indicators published by the Ministry of Planning yesterday, population estimates during the year 2022 reached 42,248,883 people, while population growth rates during the past year reached 2.5%.
The official spokesman for the ministry, Abdul Zahra Al-Hindawi, had previously stated that the country’s population is 41 million and 190 thousand people, according to the 2021 census, indicating that this increase is normal, and if it continues, we may reach 80 million people by 2050.
Economists believe that it is necessary to urgently conduct a general population census, in order to find out the real indicators and know the exact percentages of the economically active population, as well as identify indicators of poverty, unemployment, disability, education, health and population status indicators.
For his part, the Social Security official at the International Labor Organization, Dr. Amjad Rabi, said during a dialogue forum organized by the Ministry of Planning on the Iraqi labor market, security and social protection: that Iraq is now in the first phase of the "window of economic opportunities", but it did not enjoy the growing number of young people and forces. employed, and was unable to transform this demographic gift due to the poor ability to generate sufficient jobs to meet the increasing demand for work.
He added that the younger generation joining the labor force faces "deprivation of education", as only 51% of males and only 45% of girls are enrolled in secondary education, indicating that this educational gap leads to many costs, on the individuals themselves, society and the economy.
As a whole.
For her part, the ILO Country Coordinator, Dr. Maha Kattaa, said: This forum is about education, the labor market and innovation, which is one of the priorities of the Iraqi government, especially the new government program.
She added that the choice of this topic was due to the fact that the development process today has an urgent need to look at the education process during the past years in Iraq, stressing that the link between education and the labor market is very important, because the outputs of education will enter this market.
The Ministry of Planning recently discussed the overall (final) framework of the National Development Plan (2023-2027) with the participation of a group of experts, specialists and representatives of the concerned departments, and presented a definition of the plan's priorities, which came at the forefront of its objectives, benefiting from human capital as a basic pillar.
