1.1 Citizen Outcomes Today
Jordan today is considered an “upper-middle income” country by the World Bank. Jordan has
achieved this status in 2012 because of the growth rates achieved over the past decade. This is
represented by Jordan's ranking on the Human Development Index (HDI), and the Health and
education pillar in the World Economic Forum's Competitiveness report.
