Pakistan
Pakistan saw rapid development and experienced the highest growth rates in South Asia in its first 20 years after independence. However, in recent years, progress has slowed and the economy has seen a downturn. Development outcomes remain mixed, with over 24% of the population living under the national poverty line, a low female workforce participation rate and high youth unemployment.
