| Summary: | Now moving into its twelfth year, the
conflict in Syria has inflicted a devastating impact on the
inhabitants and the economy. Beyond the immediate impact of
the conflict, the economy suffers from the compounding
effects of the pandemic, adverse weather events, regional
fragility, and macroeconomic instability. Economic
conditions in Syria are projected to continue to be mired by
prolonged armed conflict, turmoil in Lebanon and Turkey,
COVID-19, and the war in Ukraine. The conflict in Syria has
substantially impacted human lives and dramatically affected
the demographic structure of its population. This
demographic impact coupled with deteriorating economic
conditions have important implications for the labor market,
with potential long-lasting repercussions on Syria. |
