The export of qualified labour and raw materials, as well as services and tourism, are considered the backbone of the Jordanian economy. The rapid growth of the resident population is a significant challenge for Jordan, as the country has limited water resources and is heavily dependent on imports of energy. Compared to neighbouring countries, Jordanian society has a pronounced middle class. Overall however, prosperity is very unevenly distributed, and the income gap is widening. Although women have relatively good access to education, they are poorly represented in the labour market. Only 13% of Jordanian women are in employment. |
