Palestinian Bureau Assesses Youth Situation
On the occasion of International Youth Day 2026, the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics' report reviews the state of youth in Palestinian society, focusing on their challenges and exceptional circumstances resulting from the ongoing Israeli occupation and its assaults on the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The report highlights the importance of investing in youth as a demographic group with significant development potential, representing about 21% of the population, with a total of around 1.2 million, and an expected continued growth until 2050. It emphasizes the necessity of adopting national policies to enhance education, employment opportunities, and socio-economic participation. Despite challenges such as high unemployment rates—especially among women—and the impacts of the assaults on education and health, Palestinian youth remain a powerful force, possessing capabilities for innovation and resilience. The report stresses the importance of supporting entrepreneurial initiatives and achieving decent work to ensure a more sustainable future.
