Analysis# Côte d'Ivoire Education Spending
Côte d'Ivoire allocated 3.613% of GDP to education in 2024, representing a modest recovery from recent lows but far below historical levels. The nation's peak investment reached 8.231% in 1979, while the lowest point came in 2000 at 2.4%. Overall spending has declined 38.4% since 1970, reflecting decades of underinvestment in the education sector.
Recent years show volatility rather than sustained growth. After dropping to 3.212% in 2018, spending rebounded to 3.787% in 2020 before settling near 3.6% through 2024. This narrow fluctuation between 3.2% and 3.9% suggests education spending has stabilized at roughly half its 1979 commitment. The current trajectory indicates Côte d'Ivoire remains unlikely to return to peak investment levels without significant policy shifts.
