The World Bank in Armenia

Armenia has faced significant socio-political and economic challenges but has shown resilience due to prudent macroeconomic policies and effective financial oversight. In 2023, Armenia became an IDA donor, nine years after graduating from being an IDA recipient and four years after attaining upper-middle-income status. Armenia has been actively engaged in a wide range of reforms, including in the justice sector, healthcare, tax and customs and social protection systems. The government is focusing on boosting human capital through education and health sector reforms, as well as addressing the connectivity and export diversity issues to achieve inclusive growth.
