This study provides examples from both sides of the debate, namely: (a) cases where conformity with environmental standards increases costs and reduces exports; and (b) cases where the cost of conformity with environmental, health and safety standards is minimal, and where improvement in environmental performance provides opportunities for increasing competitiveness and accessing new markets. The report seeks to underscore the importance of assessing the scope and scale of impact on key economic sectors within the framework of set environmental requirements, thereby informing effectively the decision-making process and policy debate on sustainable development. It uses the Larsen Model as an economic policy forecasting tool, and focuses on Arab countries.

Five years into the ongoing and tragic conflict, the paper analyzes how Syria’s economy and its people have been affected and outlines the challenges in rebuilding the economy. With extreme limitations on information, the findings of the paper are subject to an extraordinary degree of uncertainty. The key messages are: (1) that the devastating civil war has set the country back decades in terms of economic, social and human development. Syria’s GDP today is less than half of what it was before the war started and it could take two decades or more for Syria to return to its pre-conflict GDP levels; and that (2) while reconstructing damaged physical infrastructure will be a monumental task, rebuilding Syria’s human and social capital will be an even greater and lasting challenge.
