international
The GKI was developed by the United Nations Development Programme - Regional Bureau for Arab States (UNDP RBAS) and the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) in 2017. It provides an overview of the diverse aspects of knowledge and development, essential for shaping informed development policies. It encompasses seven composite sub-indices: Pre-University Education, Technical and Vocational Education and Training, Higher Education, Research, Development and Innovation, Information and Communications Technology, Economy, and Enabling Environment." Thus, while the GKI does not use the term “future skills”, it does offer a global insight into related areas of knowledge, education and development in general.
