Why this status
Under way. The Government reports an education allocation of 2.04 percent of GDP for 2025, describes it as the first step in a gradual path, and says further progress is planned in 2026 and 2027. This shows movement toward the 6 percent electoral-term target, but the current allocation remains well below it.
