Recent data reveals stark disparities in unemployment rates across Arab countries, with the overall rate stabilized at 9.5% in 2025. However, the reality is more complex: Gulf states maintain very low rates (UAE 2.8%), while North African and Levantine countries face acute challenges, particularly Jordan (20.6%) and Morocco (13.7%). Youth unemployment constitutes a separate crisis, exceeding 20% in North Africa and 15.9% in the Middle East. The gender gap remains profound, with female unemployment in North Africa at 25.2% versus 16.6% for males, reflecting structural and cultural barriers to full economic participation of women.
