Project description
This research project aims to analyze Kuwait’s current social policy system, identify key challenges, and in response to these challenges, propose general reforms. The research contains two parts: the first part provides an overall description of Kuwait’s welfare system, and assessment of main challenges. The second part proposes guidelines and recommendations to develop new venues for social policies in Kuwait, with a strengthened focus on social investment for a dynamic society and economy less dependent on oil revenues.
